YZ3
Deck Crane
Fail-safe load holding at sea — how the YZ3 hydraulic winch delivers hoisting duty on a ship deck crane, in salt atmosphere and vessel motion.

A deck crane hoists while the ship itself moves. The winch must hold a suspended load absolutely, in any power state, and survive years of salt spray with minimal maintenance access.
Motor roles in this machine
- YZ3 — hoisting winch: Integrated THOTH motor, planetary drum drive, and spring-applied multi-disc brake. The brake engages mechanically at loss of pressure — the load stays where it is.
- Smooth low-speed lowering: Counterbalance-valve-controlled descent lets the operator land cargo gently against vessel roll, without load drop or overspeed.
