Specialty Lifting Device Inspection
Specialty Lifting Device Inspection: NIS provides inspection per OSHA General Duty Clause and ASME B30.20 standard of:
- Specialty Lifters
- End Effectors
- C-Hooks
- Sheet Lifters
- Coil Lifters
- Car Carriers
- Assembly Line Lifters
When you bring any of the above items to NIS for inspection, the following steps will occur:
- Physical characteristics, such as capacity, serial number, type and tooling number of Specialty Lifters are recorded on an inspection report.
- Specialty Lifters are visually inspected for excessive wear, deformation, out of plane bending, excessive gouges and missing capacity markings.
- If necessary, physical measurements of Specialty Lifters are taken to keep records of stretch or growth from year to year.
- Specialty Lifters are load tested to 125% of safe working load limit as required.
- Welds of Specialty Lifters are inspected for cracks invisible to the naked eye using either a Magnetic Particle test or a Liquid Penetrant test.
- Each passing Specialty Lifter will be tagged with a color coded inspection tag or sticker, demonstrating that it has been checked.
- Specialty Lifters which do not pass inspection will be tagged with a caution tag as well as a red paint mark.
- Finally, a computer generated report will be provided on a spreadsheet with a certificate governing regulatory standards for all passing items.
