On the 29th June in the Turkish shipyard Tersan, BERCISA attended the launching ceremony of the Volstad owned by the Norwegian shipowners Volstad.  Gaining access to the Norwegian  fishing technology market is a new departure for Ibercisa given the high standards and requisites demanded and reflects over a decade of commercial ties with the nordic country. This event, attended by over 60 norwegians, including Eivind Volstad, the owner and his family, was presided over by thenew "Godmother" of the vessel, the Captain's wife and the vessel will make its first trip to the Sea of Barents to catch Cod. Ibercisa has supplied this vessel with electrical split trawl winches with a drum capacity for 3,000 m Ø 34 mm or 3,400 m Ø 32 mm. and a nominal line pull from 49,5 t at 38 m/min. at first layer to 20,1 t at 93 m/min at 17 th layer. These trawl winches are driven by an ABB water cooler electric motor of 355 Kw - 600 r/m, 440 V – 50 Hz, controlled by frequency converter, mounted in vertical below deck.  They have hermetical and split gear box based on three steps of pinion / crown helical type, all of them working in permanent oil bath by immersion; and the fixed drumis especially reinforced with band brake differential type, hydraulically operated by means of a special cylinder with Belleville springs inside to brake with pressure loss. The supplies also includes: - Electrical gilson winches driven by 75 Kw - 1500 r/m, (S2 – 30’ service), 400 V – 50 Hz, IP-56, electric with a capacity for 125 m of rope of Ø 40 mm., 22,2 t al 19,5 m/min at first lay and achieves a 28,8 t nominal pull at 29,2 m/min on the first lay. - Electric sweepline winches driven by a 110 Kw -1,800 r/min electric motor, 400 V - 50 Hz, IP-56, S2-30’ service, with automatic electro-magnetic disc brake and encoder with a capacity of 1,100 m of wire Ø28 mm. and a nominal line pull of 20,3 t at 31 m/min on the first lay. - Electric net sounder winches driven by an electric motor of 55 kW at 1,500 r/m, 400 V - 50 Hz, with automatic brake, heating resistances , PT100 temperature sensors and encoder with a capacity for 4,000 m Ø11,3 m. These winches have a pull and speed of 5,7 t at 53 m/min on the first lay. - Electric auxiliary winches driven by a 7,5 Kw - 1,500 r/m electric motor, 400 V- 50 Hz with automatic electro-magnetic disc brake and including encoder. These winches have a drum capacity of 60 m O 12 mm. and a nominal line pull and speed on the first lay of 1,1 t at 36 m/min. - Electric net drums driven by an electric motor of 260 Kw at 1,500 r/m and 85 % gear box efficiency. Each drum has a net capacity for 13 m3 and a nominal line pull of 36,5 t at 37 m/min. - Electric net drum driven by a 30 Kw at 1,500 r/m electric motor with fail safe brake disc brake with a net capacity for 13 m3 and a nominal line pull of 6 t at 26 m/min. - Electric auxiliary winch driven by a 11 Kw at 1,500 r/m electric motor and a drum capacitity for 1,100 m of wire of O28 mm. and a nominal line pull of 2 t at 31 m/min. - Electric auxiliary winches driven by a 45 Kw at 1.500 r/m electric motor, drum capacity for 50 m Ø 10 mm and a nominal line pull of 7,8 t at 32 m/min - Coden winches driven by 75 Kw at 1,500 r/m with a drum capacity for 150 Ø 22 mm. and a nominal line pull of 12,1 t at 35,7 m/min. - Electric auxiliary windlass driven by an electric motor of 45 Kw at 1,000 r/m with a drum capacity for 2x 370 m Ø48 and 27,5 m chain Ø46 mm and a nominal line pull of 16,9 t at 12,7 m/min at first lay.
