What are the primary types of cable pulling machines, and how do I choose the right one for my project?

2025-08-14

Choosing the right cable pulling machine is crucial for a project's safety and efficiency. The main types we offer at Ningbo Changshi are categorized by their power source and application.

  • Hydraulic Cable Pullers: These are ideal for heavy-duty applications, such as installing large, high-voltage cables over long distances. They provide powerful and consistent pulling force, making them well-suited for demanding industrial and utility projects.

  • Electric Cable Pullers: Powered by electric motors, these machines are excellent for long-distance pulls and repetitive tasks where a consistent power source is available. They offer controlled speed and are a cost-effective solution for various projects.

  • Capstan Winches (Petrol/Diesel/Electric): Often highly portable, these winches use a rotating drum (capstan) to generate pulling force. They are versatile for both overhead and underground applications and come in various pulling capacities to suit different cable sizes and project scales.

To select the best machine, consider the maximum pulling tension required, the cable diameter and type, the distance of the pull, and the worksite environment (e.g., access to power, terrain). Our team can assist you in evaluating your project needs to recommend the most suitable and cost-effective equipment.
