1.1 General
SEPSON’s objective, focus and single purpose is to build reliable, dependable and
uncomplicated winches that require a minimum of maintenance and are simple to
repair if this is ever needed. They are quickly and easily attached on any vehicle
chassis.
SEPSON hydraulic vehicle recovery winches from the product groups
– SEPDURANCE, SEPMATIC, FORCEMATIC as well as the worm gear driven
SEPGAIN series, meet all rescue and recovery requirements.
The SEPDURANCE winches represent the core of our range of drum winches and
are characterized by the following features.
All drum winches:
•
have drum and housing made of nodular cast iron for added strength and
structural integrity
•
have the free spooling feature to easily allow a manual unspooling of the wire
rope. A unique 2-speed feature controlled by a hydraulic valve system is also
standard on all models with a pulling force of 150 kN and above
•
are equipped with a spring-applied, pressure-release multi-disk brake and the
optimal drum-to-wire-rope diameter ratio of minimum 10:1 which significantly
increases the useful life of the rope and reduces operating expenses.
The SEPMATIC winches are the next step up on the ladder to higher performance
and feature an integrated automatic rope-spooling device.
The FORCEMATIC range is our most advanced family of winches. They have been
equipped with a unique feature that maintains a constant pulling force on the wire
rope regardless of its layer on the rope drum.
