ROV Lift Winches

The MacArtney range of MASH ROV Winches is designed to handle industry standard large work class ROVs. They are fully electronically controlled and designed to hold a range of armoured lift umbilicals with a full drum line pull of 15 to 18 tons.

Most MASH ROV winches are delivered with Active Heave Compensation that filters out sea and ship movement for safe and controlled ROV operation in heavier seas. They are also designed to integrate with MacArtney Launch and Recovery Systems, LARS, which are the ideal solution for operating underwater vehicles offshore.

The winches can be certified for use in explosive, zone 2 areas, or according to specific customer requirements.

MacArtney winches have a long proven track record, and are trusted by suppliers across the world as being robust and reliable in the demanding offshore environment.
