The conventional method of winding in a mine shaft. As the cage containing
the loaded cars ascends, the other cage containing the empties descends,
and thus the cages and cars are balanced. Balanced winding also implies
the use of a balance rope, and thus, ignoring friction, the only load to
be hoisted is the coal or mineral. See also: winding; balanced hoisting.
