Hoists are pulling devices that lift loads vertically using a wire rope or chain. Thern winches, on the other hand, can pull loads both horizontally & vertically when placed in floor-mounted, wall-mounted or underhung orientation. Hoists also need an automatic brake in vertical lifting applications to prevent accidents whereas winches that are used for horizontal pulls do not require a brake.
Hand winches require manual turning of the winch handle by the user. Electric winches use an electric motor to turn the drum containing wire rope and spool the lifting rope.
Choosing of underwounding versus overwounding of a wire rope depends on the Thern winch being selected or more specifically the brake incorporated into the winch. Hand winches mostly come with disc brakes that hold the load in only one direction. Winding the wire rope incorrectly may cause the winch to operate against the brake. This may lead to brake failure, resulting in the load falling or causing injury.
