Ingersoll Rand is one of the best known manufacturers of air powered tools in the world, and have invested heavily in research and development across all of their product lines in order to produce equipment that is designed to out perform other similar products. There are a number of different Ingersoll Rand air winches on the market, and these high power pieces of equipment are designed for a number of different tasks in the workshop or industrial environment.
As with the majority of their other tools such as drills and impact wrenches, Ingersoll Rand Air winches use the power of compressed air in order to deliver power. The company’s incredible experience in tapping the potential of air power in other areas means that their air powered winches are able to provide may advantages to the user over conventional models that use either internal combustion engines, or electrical power in their operation.
Perhaps the most obvious advantage of the Ingersoll Rand air winch range is the fact that the motors are simple and reliable. Without the internal complexity of electricity powered winches, there is much less that can go wrong with an air powered model, and this means that the tool is much more reliable in use. Fewer stoppages for maintenance also mean less down time, which is a cost benefit to any business, where downtime costs money.
Due to the use of compressed air as the power source, these winches are able to deliver enormous amounts of torque, which gives them staggering lifting power that is more than many conventional models. The operation of an Ingersoll Rand air winch is also advantageous to the user, as when the motor is stalled, it locks into place, so you are able to hold a load in position without having to strain the motor as you would with a conventionally powered system.
While power is important, it is essential that you can control that power so that you are able to handle delicate items as well as robust ones, and this is also an area where the Ingersoll Rand Air Winch provides excellent performance. The units operate at a range of different speeds from a very slow crawl up to a full speed motion, which allows you to move items carefully without having to constantly worry about monitoring the speed.

The simplicity of the design used in the Ingersoll Rand air winch range is one of its main advantages when it comes to choosing a powerful winch for your business. The internal machinery of the units is very straightforward, and is not as prone to environmental concerns as alternatively powered units. With electrical and gas powered winches, you need to constantly monitor the quality of the air around the winch to ensure that dust and grit do not enter the delicate internal components and damage them. The air powered winch does not require this same attention, and can operate quite happily for long periods of time without any problems.
In addition to the fact that the Ingersoll Rand air winches are well suited to use in dirty or dusty environments compared to electric models, they are also ideal for use in an environment where hazardous or flammable substances are present. With no internal sparking, the winches cannot cause a fire to break out.
Ingersoll Rand are well known for the quality of the equipment that they are able to produce, and the innovation that they bring to every industry that they work in, and the range of Ingersoll Rand air winches is absolutely no different to this. The company has acquired expertise from a number of other manufacturers including Beebe International, and the French Company, Samiia, and applied their design and engineering progress to the original IR line of products in order to ensure that they offer the end users the best possible levels of quality in service throughout their lifespan.
