What Type of Crane is Being Inspected?

The most important factor in determining the cost of an overhead crane inspection is the type of crane or cranes that need to be inspected. There are many different kinds of cranes, and each one has its own unique inspection criteria and requirements, and can take varying lengths of time to complete the inspection process.

As the duty cycle increases, the cost of the inspection will increase due to the components and the time required to complete a thorough inspection. Think about all of the moving parts required to operate an overhead double girder top running electrified crane. Now, compare that to a basic jib crane or mechanical workstation crane with no electronics, and a basic support structure.

• Number of cranes – The total number of cranes on-site will play a major factor in the cost of the crane inspection. The more cranes there are on site, the longer the inspector(s) will have to remain at your facility to complete the job.
• ความจุ – Higher capacity units take longer time to inspect, so it increases cost. A 50-ton crane takes longer than a 5-ton crane, for example.
• Components – A double girder or single girder overhead crane is going to have significantly more parts than a basic jib or workstation crane. Things like electrification systems, braking systems, radio remote controls/pendants, variable speed controls, etc. have their own inspection requirements and are more complex pieces than what you would find on a jib or workstation crane.
• Time – With more components, comes a more thorough inspection, and more time on-site for the inspector to complete the inspection process.
• Environment and accessibility of cranes – What type of environment is the crane in? Hazardous or chemical environments, and accessibility considerations like maneuvering lifts to access the crane equipment, have a direct relationship on the cost of the inspection.
