Combined Windlass/Mooring Winch
Combined Windlass/Mooring Winch by Towimor (Poland) combines anchor-handling and mooring functions in one deck-machinery installation. The windlass section handles anchor chain through a cable lifter or wildcat, while the mooring section provides a warping head or drum for ropes or wires depending on the execution. The supplied record lists Pull 50-200 kN. Such units are mounted on the forecastle or working deck and rely on robust foundations, brakes, clutches, gearbox/drive systems and local or remote controls. Because anchor and mooring loads are different, the operator must use the correct clutch, brake and drum/cable-lifter configuration for the task. Neighboring Towimor executions may differ in chain size, drum arrangement, drive type and rated duties; refer to the installed maker drawings for the exact configuration.

Common failures & inspection points
Service & Maintenance
Inspect brakes, clutches, cable lifter, drums/warping heads, foundations, guards and controls under the deck-machinery PMS. Check gearbox lubricant and leakage, drive-system condition and all accessible lubrication points. Function-test emergency stop, local/remote controls and brake/clutch operation without exposing personnel to loaded lines or chain. Examine anchor chain engagement and associated stoppers as part of the complete anchoring arrangement. Class survey may include operational tests, brake/holding condition, structural attachment and anchor-handling readiness. Use maker documentation for exact brake settings, wear limits and maintenance intervals.
