An electric winch is a mechanical device used to pull or lift heavy loads using an electric motor. It consists of a spool or drum that winds a cable or rope, allowing it to move objects vertically or horizontally. Electric winches are commonly used in various applications, including construction, boating, and off-roading. These winches are powered by electricity, making them efficient and easy to operate. They often come with features like remote controls and automatic braking systems for safety. Electric winches are available in different sizes and capacities, suitable for both light-duty and heavy-duty tasks.
