How do winch gears work?

Most electric winches on the market today use a planetary gear system, which is similar to the gearing used for the automatic transmission in your vehicle.

It's basically a set of gears inside a larger gear. The "planetary" gears revolve around a "sun" gear in the center.

The two other main types of gears are spur gears and worm gears, neither of which are widely available in offroad winches.

The spur gear is composed of a pair of gears, one bigger than the other. The bigger gear connects to the motor shaft, and the smaller gear connects to the winch shaft. Spur gears are fast, smooth, and quiet.

The worm gear is composed of a pinion and worm gear. It operates based on a line of contact rather than a point of contact. Worm gears are common for tow trucks but are much slower than spur and planetary gears.
