Original Press Release:
Thern Chute Positioning Winches are Versatile and Economical.
Winona, Minn., August 7, 2002 - Strength, versatility and control are key considerations in any chute or conveyor system used in loading and moving materials. Those are exactly the features brought to the system by Thern power winches.
For typical chute applications, two separate Thern winches control the chute's elevation and extension. Limit switches and brake motors also provide load control. The Thern winch-driven system is more versatile and economical than conventional overhead hoists.
Conveyor systems are made more versatile by a cable and winch arrangement that lets the power winch be mounted in an easily accessible place away from a hard-to-reach load. Multi-part rigging can increase leverage and reduce the load on the winch. These winch-driven systems are more economical than complex gear-driven or high maintenance hydraulic systems.
