richard Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 Hello I am specifiying a new venue install at the moment and may be needing a number of winches to lift a truss, due to the layout of the venue (a conversion of a listed building) they really need to be steel wire winches, with a single line from each and as small as possible. Does anyone have any links to spec sheets for such things - I have seen a few likely looking products but not much info I am needing to lift 250kg per point for a travel of around 12m Thanks Richard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russ83 Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 This type of thing from Doughty? There's a dozen of these for all the bars at my local theatre and they are fairly compact. Your arm will get tired after 12m of wire though, are electric winches an option? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trussmonkey Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 Speak to Stage Technologies Ltd http://www.stagetech.com/automation-mechanics they will be able to help you out. they also have a load of info on their website. we use them in our theatre and we have 120 winches !! does it have to be 1 line per winch. the Stage Technologies Big Tow BT490 winch comes in many sizes and you can have multiple lines on it. We use them with up to 8 lines. ask for Jim Roberts and say Simon Frost (thats me) sent you. nice guy and very helpful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
