Classification of winches: Based on the method of power supply: - Manual winches: Operated by manually turning a handle, they have a small lifting capacity and are used in light-duty, unpowered applications or as a safety backup. - Electric winches: The most common type, driven by an electric motor, they are efficient and easy to control, making them the mainstay on construction sites. - Hydraulic winches: Powered by hydraulic motors, they provide smooth and substantial traction, often used in large, heavy machinery such as truck cranes and excavators. - Internal combustion winches: Utilize diesel or gasoline engines as their power source, suitable for outdoor operations where no external power supply is available.
