Cable winch (TM 125)

structure and principle of a cable winch

Code TM125

 Description:

  • Cable or hoist winches are machine elements that are classified as transmission or conversion elements.
  • In a cable winch, a supporting cable is wound on a cable drum by means of a gear transmission.
  • This allows loads secured to the supporting cable to be moved.
  • The TM 125experimental unit is used to study the hoisting velocity and force transmission of a cable winch.
  • It also demonstrates the function of a return stop.
  • By considering equilibrium states, it is possible to determine force transmission and efficiency.
  • The two cable drums are mounted on ball bearings.
  • The forces are generated by weights and can be varied quickly and easily.
