Shipyards may prefer the simple installation of en electric winhc above other types, whereas shipowners are more interested in the operational advantages of hydraulic winches.

SEC has combined these two different requirements into a single winch design; the electric-hydraulic turnkey winch.

Logistically, this configuration is the best solution for the shipyard. Each winch has its own hydraulic and electrical unit. This might seem to be less interesting, but from the logistical point of view it offers the shipyard a major advantage. If necessary, the complete winch can be built in the block section. This means that the installation time of a complete anchoring and mooring system can be reduced to a minimum.

In general, SEC Ten Horn winches are delivered with a closed foundation, ready to be welded to the deck. On request, a part of the chainpipe can even be pre-installed, so no additional disassembly and assembly of the winch has to be done by the shipyard.

If a shipyard has to install a hydraulic winch to a seperate power pack, then it has to supply and install the complete piping  from power pack to winch and back. This time-consuming and expensive job can be avoided if the turnkey electric-hydraulic winch is fitted. The complete hydraulic installation is incorporated in the gearbox. This means that a shipyard can install the Ten Horn turnkey winch within a few hours.

The installation features of the SEC Ten Horn winches are interesting for the shipyard, but of even greater importance is SEC's backup during the installation process. SEC tests the winches before installation and guarantees the functioning of winches when they are installed in accordance with SEC instructions.
