What Is a

Crane Inspection?

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) requires frequent (daily to monthly) and periodic (monthly to annually) inspections of all overhead crane systems; these inspections are designed to ensure that the crane systems are safe to operate.  The frequency of these inspections is determined by the crane system's duty cycle and the environment in which it operates.

Benefits of a Regular Crane Inspection Routine

By establishing a regular inspection routine, you address safety, regulatory, efficiency and budgetary issues.

Regular inspections and maintenance will:

• Keep you and your equipment in compliance with OSHA inspection regulations and CMAA guidelines
• Prevent accidents
• Avoid downtime and unnecessary production interruptions
• Ensure peak efficiency throughout your crane system's life cycle
• Extend your crane system's life expectancy by minimizing unnecessary wear and stress
• Address potential problems before they become more costly and inconvenient
• Improve your facility’s productivity by scheduling inspections and maintenance when production will not be interrupted
