Winch, Hoist, & Crane Motors

Specialty Motors for Winches, Cranes, and Hoists

Electric motors used for lifting or pulling applications need to be exceptionally strong and reliable for industrial use. As an industry-leading manufacturer in electric motors, Louis Allis designs, manufactures, and offers repair services for low, medium, and high-voltage electric motors built for use in cranes and winches. Louis Allis designs and manufactures military motors in accordance with MIL-M-17060.

Industrial-level lifting and pulling equipment simply can’t use basic, off-the-shelf electric motors: they aren’t suitable for high stress, intermittent duty, and they don’t provide the necessary levels of torque and reliability. 

Motors used in cranes tend to be large and heavy-duty. Winch and hoist motors, even though they are smaller, still require high torque to lift and move your loads.
