The KMW Mooring Winch Series from Kawasaki Heavy Industries utilizes a robust design concept with cast steel construction and split drum configuration to ensure reliable operation in marine environments. This series is designed to handle mooring lines with pull capacities ranging from 100 to 500 kN, making it suitable for various vessel sizes and requirements. The winches come in four sizes: KMW-100, KMW-200, KMW-300, and KMW-500, each powered by electric or hydraulic drives with power ratings from 25 to 250 kW. The design includes a band brake and drum clutch to manage tension and control during mooring operations. Common maintenance issues include band brake wear, drum clutch adjustment, and motor insulation degradation. Spare parts are supplied by Kawasaki Heavy Industries in Japan, with a typical lead time of 3 to 5 weeks for delivery within Asia. Standard maintenance procedures are outlined in the KHI manual, ensuring proper upkeep and longevity of the winches.

For marine equipment hardly any maker or authorised dealer will name a price while the vessel is unknown. With the vessel details, availability and price can be settled faster; without them we may have to ask first, which costs a few days. If you are not allowed to name the vessel, a photo of the rating plate is enough — attach it below or send it as a reply to our confirmation e-mail.
