MW2000 - Winch for Slimhole Applications

The MW2000 mini winch is especially designed for logging with our slimhole tools. It holds a 2000 m long 4-conductor logging cable (Rochester 4-H-181A, 3/16", 150 °C). The entire winch mounted on a pallette with a protecting cage and all accessories weighs less than 600 kg. This allows airfreight transport to all worldwide ICDP locations for low costs. The winch requires a foot-print of 2.5 x 2.5 m.

Although it is very rugged it allows very slow and steady logging speed (1 m/min), like for televiewer runs, and up to a maximum speed of 50 m/min.The cable breaking strength is 8 kN. The cable is equipped with a Gearhardt-Owen type cable head GO4 (connector detail). A crossover GO4-GO7 is available to allow mounting of a tool with GO7 tool head.
