At Munck Cranes, we offer professional load testing services for both new and used overhead cranes. If you're commissioning a new lifting system or re-certifying an existing one, this essential procedure verifies that your equipment is safe, structurally sound, and ready for operation.
All testing is completed in accordance with applicable safety standards, including CMAA, CSA-B67, OSHA, ASME B30, and local Ministry of Labour or regulatory guidelines. We offer a variety of preventive maintenance and inspection programs for all makes and types of lifting equipment, including Munck, GH, Demag, Kone, Richard Wilcox, Secord, Gantron, Columbus McKinnon, Shawbox, Provincial, GIS, and Stahl.
Load testing is safety evaluation check that confirms your crane or hoist can handle its rated capacity under real-world conditions. It helps companies meet regulations and helps protect your people, equipment, and your facility from preventable risks. Load testing should be performed under the supervision of an engineer or competent person. Load testing should be conducted at full capacity, followed by an additional test at 125% of that capacity.
We use two types of certified test weights - solid weights and water weights - to simulate heavy load conditions, and to ensure accuracy, safety, and compliance with industry standards.
Several scenarios call for professional load testing. For 24/7 Service, call 800-461-4509 or fill the Service Request form below.
