15 Ton Electric Winch with 30KW YDR Motor | Custom Winch
15 Ton Electric Winch – Short Video Description
The video features two customized 15 ton electric winches designed for heavy-duty lifting and pulling applications. Each winch uses a 30 kW, 6-pole YDR crane motor with pure copper winding for reliable power and stable operation. A resistor control box provides three selectable speeds—3, 6, and 9 m/min, with forward and reverse operation. The winch is also equipped with a 1120 gearbox, 500 mm brake disc, and large-capacity rope drum designed to reduce rope jumping and provide smooth, controlled lifting.

Frequently Asked Questions About 15 Ton Electric Winches
1. What motor power is required for a 15 ton electric winch?
Motor power is determined by the rated load, required rope speed, reeving arrangement, duty class, and lifting cycle. For the 15 ton winch shown in this video, a 30 kW, 6-pole YDR crane motor is used to provide the required starting torque and stable heavy-duty operation.
2. What lifting speed can a 15 ton electric winch achieve?
Lifting speed should be selected according to the required productivity and load-control requirements. This winch uses a resistor control system with three operating speeds: 3, 6, and 9 m/min. Multiple speeds allow the operator to use low speed for positioning and higher speed for normal lifting.
3. What type of brake is suitable for a 15 ton electric winch?
The braking system must be selected based on rated load, drum torque, lifting speed, duty class, and required stopping performance. The winch in the video uses a 500 mm brake disc designed to provide reliable braking and load-holding during operation.
4. How is the wire rope drum sized for a 15 ton winch?
Drum dimensions are calculated from the wire rope diameter, rope length, number of rope layers, fleet angle, and required safety factor. The customized winch uses a large-capacity rope drum to accommodate the required rope length while helping reduce rope jumping and maintain controlled winding.
5. What information is required to engineer a 15 ton electric winch?
For proper winch selection and engineering, provide the rated capacity, rope speed, lifting height or rope length, working duty class, wire rope specification, power supply, control method, mounting arrangement, and operating environment. These parameters are used to determine the motor, gearbox, drum, brake, wire rope, and electrical control system.
