Lifting Equipment Inspection

Lifting equipment is subject to high static loading and an unpredictable set of dynamic conditions that can lead to mechanical failure. Periodic inspection is therefore necessary to optimise safety and ensure the equipment is working correctly and efficiently.

Discovery Tools offers inspection services for the full range of lifting equipment including cranes, goods lifts, platforms, slings etc, and in line with the Lifting Operations & Lifting Equipment Regulations (LOLER) framework, our inspectors are able to carry out inspections to determine that:

• The equipment is installed correctly and safe to operate,
• The equipment is a good state of repair,
• Any deterioration is identified and rectified in a timely manner.

As part of our inspection service, we undertake:

• ITP review,
• Visual & dimensional checks,
• Roof clearance test,
• Pendent length check,
• Stability test,
• Insulation test,
• Light run test,
• SWL test,
• Overload test,
