Givens Engineering Inc. - Lifting Equipment Inspections
Print
|
|
Ontario Regulation 851 section 51 states that a lifting device must be inspected by a competent person at least once a year.
Givens Engineering performs annual inspections on cranes, manipulators and below-the-hook lifting devices. Each device is inspected at your plant by one of our technicians. An inspection consists of:
- An inspection of all accessible fasteners to ensure that all are present and tight
- An inspection of the hoist and its operation, a check of its limit switches and the wear of the chain or rope
- An inspection of the trolleys, end trucks, hangers and end stops in cranes
- A list of all safety equipment, for example a test of an anti-tie-down circuit, if there is one
- A check of all welds and high-stress areas in below-the-hook devices.
- A check for excessive wear of hook lugs, gripping pads, etc.
- After each device is inspected, we provide:
- An inspection sticker, attached to the device, showing the date of inspection
- A checklist of items inspected
- A list of deficiencies (if any)
For any annual inspection, the device must already have been certified. If it has not been certified, we can provide certification, including a drawing stamped by a Professional Engineer, load test and dye penetrant weld test.
Givens Engineering is an innovative engineering company building a wide variety of cranes, manipulators and material handling equipment. We are located just off the 401 in London, Ontario and only a two hour drive from Toronto, Ontario and Detroit, Michigan. Whatever your material handling requirements, we can offer a solution.
