Equipment Inspections
Crane and hoist inspections are required at different intervals for all overhead crane systems by OSHA. Whether you need to maintain your OSHA compliance or just want to stay ahead of equipment downtime, an inspection is the first step to a safe, efficient, and reliable industrial operation.
We offer ITI certified inspections on cranes, hoists, slings, and below-the-hook (BTH) devices. See below what you need at your site and get a rough idea of how that fits into your facilities budget.
Frequent Inspection: Straight forward and surface level inspection focusing on visible issues such as cracked or deforming load hooks, frayed wire ropes, corroded load chain, and testing all control functions and limits. They are crucial for catching problems early and maintaining safe operation for the user.
Periodic Inspection: A much deeper and more comprehensive look at more of the internal components, typically done on a yearly basis. brakes, structural systems, electrical components, chains, ropes, and driving systems.
Slings and Rigging: Damaged, uncertified, and homemade rigging must be removed from service as per OSHA and ASME standards. Having a regular and certified inspections ensures your lifting equipment is safe to use.
Below-The-Hook Device: Properly inspected BTH devices are requiered by OSHA and ASME standards. Many devices are overlooked in day to day work and having them regularly inspected to catch problems before they fail is critical to safe and efficient operation. Checking markings, identification, structural damage and electrical faults, a BTH inspection is integral to any preventative maintance plan.
