Ancra's Innovation Sets Load Securement Spinning.LOUISVILLE, Ky. -- Ancra International LLC (Logical Link Control) See "LANs" under data link protocol. LLC - Logical Link Control , the global leader in load securement innovation, unveiled a turning point in the industry with its revolutionary, new EZ Torque Winch winch, mechanical device for hauling or lifting consisting essentially of a movable drum around which a cable is wound so that rotation of the drum produces a drawing force at the end of the cable. . The gear-drive winch, introduced at the Mid-America Trucking Show, replaces the standard 34-inch winch bar with a six-inch handle, allowing truckers to swap the back-breaking chore of pumping a hefty winch bar with a smooth, simple rotational motion Rotational motion The motion of a rigid body which takes place in such a way that all of its particles move in circles about an axis with a common angular velocity; also, the rotation of a particle about a fixed point in space. . In fact, the EZ Torque Winch requires just one-third the amount of force needed to torque-tighten a winch strap. The device will achieve about 1,500 lbs. of tension on the webbing (the approximate tension needed to secure a load) with as few as a dozen rotations of its removable handle, after slack 1. (operating system) slack - Internal fragmentation. Space allocated to a disk file but not actually used to store useful information. 2. (jargon) slack has been taken out of the straps. "The EZ Torque Winch not only takes the work out of securing a load, it makes it possible for more drivers to be flatbed haulers, regardless of their size or strength," said Ralph Abato, director of sales and marketing for the cargo systems The cargo system (also known as the civil-religious hierarchy, fiesta or mayordomÃa system) is a collection of secular and religious positions held by men or households in rural indigenous communities throughout central and southern Mexico and Central America. division of Ancra International. The EZ Torque Winch is the latest in an annual series of major load securement innovations Ancra has brought to MATS each of the past three years. The event was the backdrop for the introduction of GlideLock, the sliding load securement bracket in 2004; SilverCap, the world's first ratcheting winch in 2005; SilverCap OverDrive (processor) Overdrive - An Intel Pentium processor which fits into a socket designed to accomodate an Intel 486, or into a special upgrade socket on the motherboard. , the aftermarket Aftermarket See: Secondary market. aftermarket See secondary market. ratcheting cap conversion for standard winches in 2006, as well as Ancra went on to unveil two more leading winch improvements: PortaWinch and PortaAnchor. In addition to reducing the amount of muscle needed to secure a load, the EZ Torque Winch makes the process safer by eliminating the need for a winch bar. "We never stop working to improve load securement," said Abato. Made of zinc-plated steel, the EZ Torque Winch passed tests so punishing, Ancra covers the device with the industry's longest warranty - one full year.
