Modular Multi Purpose Winches
MPW Platform
New Plattform: Technology makes the difference
As different as the winches of the new MPW platform may be, they share decisive common features:
- Modular design
- Compact arrangement of motor, brake and gearbox
- High level of safety (e.g. integrated disc brake)
- Wide range of options
- Clearly defined interfaces for installation and maintenance
- Low‑maintenance, service‑friendly operation

MPW‑P – The Standard for Process Applications
MPW‑P winches are designed for demanding process applications and continuous operation. High FEM classifications, precise positioning and extensive safety features make them the ideal solution for heavy-duty workflows.
Characteristic data:
- Load capacity: 6.3 – 80 t
- FEM classification: M6 to M8+
- Integrated disc brake and double-shoe brake
- Two selectable hoisting speeds
MPW‑U – Compact Winches for Assembly Duty
MPW‑U winches are the optimal choice for assembly tasks or loading operations where installation space is limited. Compact dimensions and multiple reeving options provide maximum flexibility in confined spaces.
Characteristic data:
- Load capacity: 10 – 250 t
- FEM classification: M3 – M6
- Reeving options up to 16/2
- Small approach dimensions
MPW‑S – Tailor-Made Winches for Special Applications
MPW‑S Windwerke werden projektspezifisch berechnet und gefertigt. Sie bieten höchste Flexibilität hinsichtlich Einscherung, Seilführung und Leistungsdaten – perfekt für Sonderanwendungen.
Characteristic data:
- Load capacity: 5 – 235 t
- FEM classification: M3 – M8
- Reeving from 2/2 to 24/2
- Hoisting speeds freely selectable
