Tension Master TM-1800 system

Tension Master

The unique and innovative Tension Master TM-1800 system relieves the crane and hoist wire when connecting heavy loads at great heights, such as during the disassembly of wind turbines. The winch system ensures continuous tension on the hoist wire, even when empty hook. The hoist wire is always rewound under tension onto the drum using the winch system. BKV successfully uses the Tension Master at various project locations.

Traction Winch System

DROMEC Winches developed a traction winch system for the Tension Master with compact dimensions and lightweight design. This allows the winch system to be mounted on the tip of the crane without modifying the crane. The traction winch provides continuous pre-tension on the crane’s hoist winch with an empty hook. During lifting, the traction winch can build up to 1800 kg of power, approximately 10% of the crane’s lifting capacity. With continuous tension on the crane drum, the system is safer and allows the operator to work more efficiently.
