The ratchet system of the anchor winch for controlled manual emergency operation has been further developed and complete units with swivelling chain covers have been integrated on a single base.

High-performance products require modern methods in design, technology and production. Computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) play a fundamental role, as does the comprehensive research and development program. Continuous investments in state-of-the-art CNC lathes, machines and plants, the use of forgings, moulds and state-of-the-art machining methods guarantee high precision and a technically sophisticated anchor winch.

Quality is no compromise

Through MUIR’s dedication and commitment to the windlass industry, MUIR has earned an excellent reputation as a manufacturer of top quality products. Safety, seaworthiness, performance and reliability are never compromised.

In an effort to maintain and improve its quality standards, MUIR is ISO 9001 certified, which reflects the rigorous procedures that apply to each windlass and anchor assembly. Disciplined quality control is maintained at every stage of the production process, from design to final assembly and shipping. The equipment is manufactured to meet the strictest classification standards such as ABS, LRS, DNV, BV, NKK, GL and CCS and to comply with MCA and USL codes.

Although MUIR is clearly committed to functional excellence, they are often praised for their aesthetic values as the most stylish product on the market.

MUIR systems are manufactured only with the highest quality materials and components in marine quality. Each sports boat anchor windlass is equipped with specially built propulsion motors for sea operation. High-performance DC in-line motors are used for more power, faster retrieval and increased reliability. They are coupled with efficient reduction drives. Smaller anchor winches contain permanent magnet motors. Hydraulic motors provide continuous torque, excellent control and are designed to be integrated into a ship’s central hydraulic system. All models include stainless steel shafts, bronze gears and chain sprockets with chrome, bronze or stainless steel conical couplings.

MUIR in Commercial Shipping & Shipping

MUIR’s capabilities extend far beyond recreational shipping. With several awards, MUIR can undoubtedly claim to be a preferred supplier of anchor systems for many of the world’s largest and best yachts. The mega-yacht industry is quite rightly very demanding, and owners and owners need absolute certainty that their windlasses perform exceptionally well in securing their multi-million dollar investments. The mega-yacht range includes standard and customer-specific anchor winches and systems with a lifting capacity of more than 10,000 kg. Not an easy task, considering that MUIR is one of the few manufacturers worldwide with this capability. The polished stainless steel winches and complete systems with chain stoppers, devil’s claws and pulleys are MUIR’s speciality and are in great demand on luxury yachts.
