sailing ships to apply force to ropes, cables, and hawsers. The principle
is similar to that of the windlass, which has a horizontal axle.
The windlass-anchor system is the equipment to use the anchor. The windlass-
anchor system is composed by the gear system. The windlass should design to
have the structural stability because the windlass is tolerated the weight of the
anchor and the ship. In order to determine the structural stability, the stress
analysis is performed and the optimum backlash is selected. In order to consider
the vibration and the noise, the modal analysis is performed and the result is
compared with the exciting frequency. If the result of stress is less than
allowable stress, the optimum backlash what is the quiet and is good at the
mobility is selected, and the natural frequency does not equal to the exciting
frequency, the gear system has the validity of the design.

GUANHENG marine Capstan is a vertical axled rotating machine used on
sailing ships. It can apply force to ropes, cables, and hawsers. The principle is
similar to that of the windlass, which owns a horizontal axle. Typically, it uses a
gearbox which trades reduced speed, relative to the prime mover, for
increased torque. Our company designs and produces capstan winches
from simple light load to combined heavy load, which can lift pearl bags
from the ocean floor to 30 ton line pull units for mooring large vessels. Modern
capstan winches are powered electrically, hydraulically, pneumatically, or
via an internal combustion engine.
An electric capstan has a revolving drum used to apply force to lines and cables,
though usually not chains. There are many different sizes, all powered by an electric
motor. Capstans are usually located on the forecastle or poop deck for use during
vessel maneuvers.
Applications
These devices are used during berthing and when casting off to direct and
manipulate the ship's lines. Smaller versions are commonly used for line handling on
boats.
Technologies
The two essential parts of the capstan are the electric motor and the drum, the
revolving element around which lines and cables are wound. The motor is often
mounted below to free deck space.
How to choose
The size and nature of the lines and cables to be handled will determine the
dimensions and the head size. The electric motor will be chosen as a function of
rotation speed, output power and through- or above-deck installation.

Abstract
The simple exponential capstan equation relating output tension to back tension is
valid for most cable applications. However, when the capstan is small and the back
tension is low, the bending resistance of the cable reduces its conformity to the
capstan, and thereby reduces the effectiveness of the capstan. The conditions under
which a cable will not conform to a capstan are worked out. These conditions can be
expressed as a minimum back tension required for the capstan to work. Two
applications are considered. For a typical coaxial cable on the ship cable machine at a
back tension of 5000N (1124 lbf), the effect of bending resistance is negligible. For a
different cable on a captain-pair at a back tension of 100N (22.5 lbf), the effect is
important. The equations used here are also applicable to other cases where a cable is
pulled and bent.
