The selection of a winder is influenced by various factors, primarily the D/d ratio. This refers to the ratio of the winder drum Diameter and rope diameter. Next would be the desired production level, which can be reduced to the required "end-load" for each winding cycle as well as the speed at which this end-load is brought to the surface. From a commercial aspect it would be sensible to select a winder that is fully utilised.
