Deck Machinery & Cargo Handling Equipment Review

All sizes are standard and normally in stock.

The latest addition is a 20,000-lb. winch, which is ideal for either deck or dock mounting. The capstan is locked in position when it is not powered, ensuring maximum hold- ing capabilities.

A corrosion resistance option is available for when the capstan is to be constantly exposed to sea air/ water conditions.

All sizes are direct drive and com- pact, hence requiring minimum space and reducing maintenance costs.

Bali II, a 5,000-sq.-m. hopper suc- tion dredger, as well as fitting out the l,800-sq.-m. hopper suction dredger M/S Seekies, which is in- tended to extract raw gravel from the Baltic and ensure coastal pro- tection by reclamation work.

Lake Shore

Lake Shore says it developed and patented the constant tension tech- nology that made U.S. Navy Under- way Replenishment a world leader, and is now applying that technology to military and commercial ma- chineries. Boat handling, launch- ing and recovery in rough seas has become safer and more reliable with

Lake Shore davits, claims the com- pany. Lake Shore has developed and advanced the art of tension con- trol winches. This new technology is in use in minehunting, minesweeping, submarine commu- nications and underwater mining, where delicate reliable remote con- trol of sub-surface machinery is important. Lake Shore continues to develop its line of military and com- mercial winches, davits, windlasses, elevators and cranes for both the domestic and international markets.

For more than 100 years Lake Shore says its marine products have been known for quality and reliability.

Lake Shore remains in the deck machinery business through ad- vancement in controls, materials and special-purpose designs.
