Independent Power Systems manufactures guy-less towers for mounting small wind turbines. The guy-less towers are available in two models, namely 15GLT40 and 15GLT40 Hybrid. The guy-less tower, with cantilevered design, hinges 15 feet above the ground and stands 40 feet tall. The industrial hand winch helps to raise and lower the tower by one person. The winch has an automatic disc brake that supports raising and lowering of the wind tower safely and prevents the tower from dropping down. The winch line and winch are always attached to the tower to prevent operator errors.
