Product information
At Machinefabriek Stokman you have come to the right place for high-quality cable drums, suitable for all types and sizes of cranes and winches. They are suitable for various lifting equipment, including single and double girder overhead cranes, gantry cranes and harbor cranes. Our lifting drums, made of cast iron, cast steel or steel plate, are designed to efficiently transfer force to the cable and carry heavy loads. We also offer lifting drums for electric hoists and winches. Our strict production processes guarantee superior quality and safety. We guarantee the strength and integrity of the drum construction through thorough inspections for welding defects and ensure accurate dimensions and tolerances. In this way, Machinefabriek Stokman can produce cable drums based on your specific requirements, guarantee continuous quality and deliver long-lasting performance, even for the most demanding lifting activities.
Product properties
Efficient lifting
The precisely machined surface of the hoisting drum serves as a spool, allowing the cable to be wound and unwound in carefully controlled layers. This controlled layering minimizes friction, thus preventing wear and guaranteeing smooth operation. In addition, the design of the drum ensures precise cable routing, preventing it from becoming tangled or snagged. This ensures that the cable maintains its structural integrity and prevents dangerous situations during lifting operations.
Transfer power
The cable drum not only controls the cable, but also plays an important role in transmitting the power generated by the crane motor. However, this force must be efficiently transmitted to the steel cable in order to translate it into lifting force. When the hoisting drum turns, it pulls on the cable, creating the necessary pulling force to lift the load. The drum acts as a lever, so to speak, that increases the power of the motor and enables the crane to lift even the heaviest objects.
Support weight
Once the load has been lifted, the lifting drum remains important. During this critical phase, this cable drum acts as a supporting platform for the lifted object. The weight of the object is evenly distributed over the surface of the drum, ensuring stability and preventing excessive strain on the cable. This also guarantees the safety and efficiency of the lifting work.
