DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS FOR TRAWL WINCHES

Abstract

For efficient functioning of a trawl winch it is essential thm
all component parts should be designed carefully taking
into consideration all the relevant factors such as quantum and
type of load each component is subjected to, amount of maintenance
it will receive during actutal operation, type of driv.:: for the winch etc.
Based on the practices adopted at the Central Institute Of
Fisheries Technology certain guide lines are proposed in this p::tper
for designing of trawl winches.
