Winches’ engineering
Our different departments, design, manufacturing, have deep knowledges of the military automotive industry.
Our know-how as integrator of winching solutions guarantees our perfect mastery of all the steps required for the winching solution integration on your vehicle. From the analysis of your needs to the changes on the vehicle, through to the definition of your technical specification, the STARTER teams guide you in order to find the solution that is best suited to your needs.
Military winches
At STARTER we put a special emphasis on the control system of our winches. We consider that the safety and the efficiency of pulling operations are highly dependent on the quality of the interface. Easy-to-read information, easy-to-operate switches and ergonomic devices are all key issues. Our winches are also developed to be used in difficult environments, and are equipped with heavy-duty protection for shock, sealing and electromagnetic interference.

This also includes training and after-sales, with a spare parts policy based on reliability and availability. From solution design to maintenance through mock-up and setting, our team offers full support to your project. Our dedicated engineers can work side by side with our customers anywhere in the world.
