Load handling is always a chief concern for theatre operators and with the new Clew Winch line sets from TSE, operation has never been more secure. These completely engineered systems eliminate the potential hazards inherent in systems using components from various suppliers that may not be designed to work together. In addition, standard clew winches now include dual compartment, grooved drums to accommodate redundant haul lines for enhanced security and load control. Winches also include a positive load holding brake and a lock-out function to provide secondary security by locking the drum to the frame when the load is stationary.
The new 2500 pound Clew Winch series, incorporates an improved gearbox design, to provide quiet and reliable performance. Worm gears are enclosed in a cast aluminum housing, and operate in a sealed oil bath to provide the dependability theatre operators require, while allowing operators the flexibility to install the winch to both horizontal and vertical surfaces. The gearbox will provide additional flexibility with a motorized option to be available soon from TSE.
With Clew Winch line sets from TSE, theatre operators receive performance, flexibility and security in one fully engineered package.
