Spooler Front from STARTER: The innovation that revolutionizes cable winding in the winch world

Optimize winch use with STARTER's Spooler Front: The Revolution in Cable Rewinding

Winches are simple machines, but they require great skill to operate, especially when it comes to rewinding the rope after attaching a load to be towed or a fixed pick-up point. Correct winding of the cable is crucial, as a misalignment of +/- 5% from the winch perpendicular can lead to major problems.

Heterogeneous winding problems

Inconsistent winding can lead to three damaging phenomena. Firstly, rapid stacking of layers limits winch effort. Secondly, it can cause the winch's connecting bars to break. Finally, a poorly wound rope tends to self-destruct when re-tensioned, seeking the most direct route to the winch drum and causing dangerous pinches and crushes.

The Innovative Solution: Spooler Front from STARTER

STARTER engineers have solved these common problems by developing and patenting a revolutionary system called Spooler Front. This innovation considerably simplifies winch handling by ensuring even cable winding.

The Spooler Front consists of a solid, inert part attached to the underside of the winch, enabling the cable to be wound uniformly from left to right on the drum, even when pulling at angles of up to +/- 30° to the winch perpendicular. What's more, the rope exits at a fixed point.

Simplified handling for increased efficiency

This revolutionary technology eliminates the hassle of cable winding, allowing the operator to concentrate fully on the job without fear of potential problems. With STARTER's Spooler Front, winch handling becomes safer, more efficient and faster.
