INSPECTION AND CERTIFICATION OF LIFT EQUIPMENT

Federal and provincial regulations require that all lifting equipment be examined at least annually to ensure that it will perform as expected. The problem is, how do you know that the company inspecting your equipment is competent?

Inspection of lifting equipment is our specialty. Our experienced inspection crew is fully capable of handling anything from forklifts and manlifts up to huge heavy lift cranes and container handlers.

We are certified as an inspection organization by the Canadian Welding Bureau under standard CSA W178.1. Each inspection is carried out by CGSB certified technicians under the direction of a Professional Engineer.

Inspections include operational checks, visual examination, magnetic particle examination of welds and other critical areas, and ultrasonic examination of pins and bolts. Certification is provided by the directing engineer once the equipment is brought back to its original condition.

We beat the competition because:

  • Our inspectors are trained to examine equipment that is specific to the lift industry such as wire rope, hydraulic cylinders, wear pads, sheaves, etc.
  • Our engineers are on staff and have actual hands-on experience inspecting lift equipment.
  • We keep informed of the latest standards, regulations, and technology affecting the lift industry through participation on standards committees and user associations. What's more, we keep you informed.
  • We can track your fleet's certification needs and inform you when your equipment is due.
  • We don't charge a minimum number of hours for small jobs. This saves you a lot of money when defects have to be checked after repairs.
