Winch nigikoresho cyoroheje kandi gito cyo guterura, kizwi kandi nka kuzamura, gikoresha reel kugirango uhindure umugozi winsinga cyangwa urunigi kugirango uzamure cyangwa ukurura ibintu biremereye.Ingoma nimwe mubintu byingenzi bigize winch.
Kuzamura bishobora kugabanywamo ubwoko butatu bwingenzi: kuzamura intoki, kuzamura amashanyarazi hamwe no kuzamura hydraulic.Muri byo, kuzamura amashanyarazi ni byinshi.rusange.Birashobora gukoreshwa byonyine cyangwa nkibigize imashini zikoreshwa mu guterura, kubaka umuhanda no kuzamura ibirombe.Barashimwa cyane kubera ibikorwa byabo bitoroshye, ubwinshi bwumugozi uzunguruka kandi byoroshye.
Kuzamura bikoreshwa cyane cyane mu guterura cyangwa gukurura igorofa mu nyubako, imishinga yo kubungabunga amazi, amashyamba, ibirombe na dock.Nibikoresho byingenzi mumahugurwa, ibirombe ninganda.
