New Product Information: Manual Small Winch - New Pulley Drum Type in the Self-Locking Winch Series Now Available

This is a reduction device with a new self-locking mechanism (Shoji Lock) that replaces worm gear reducers. It includes a lineup of reduction gears, rack jacks, and winches.

Compared to conventional worm gear reducers, our compact design and high efficiency have received positive feedback. However, we also hear many voices expressing resistance or anxiety towards new products, as well as those who prefer to stick with traditional options. We encourage both those who are hesitant and those who love new things to take a look at our case studies and consider them. Conversely, we welcome valuable suggestions on potential applications as well!
