From the ship capstan definition we can know that the capstan has wide application, which makes it important equipment on ship. The capstan is a drum shaped machine and it includes horizontal capstan and vertical capstan, one advantage of using capstan on ship is that it can save some weight and space on deck especially as vertical capstan because its motor and some other parts are mounted below deck.
In accordance with application of the capstan, it mainly consists of ship anchor capstan and ship mooring capstan. As ship size gets bigger, the capstan’s size and capacity to meet the needs. In earlier time, the capstan on ship was handled mainly by man power, which was tough and difficult work for operators. At present, the capstan driven by man power is replaced by electric, hydraulic and pneumatic capstans, and these capstans make the anchoring, mooring and other operations on ship easier and faster. As electric capstan, the motor is pole changeable or frequency controlled for different operating speeds.
