Ready to help: for all your calibrations and repairs

Calibrating your load measuring devices

Do you want to be sure that your load measuring devices work accurately and according to specifications? Then have your instruments calibrated by Van Gool. We have fully-equipped test equipment in-house to calibrate compression load cells and crane scales. Accurate measuring devices are an important condition for safe hoisting. So make an appointment or contact us for more information!

The most advanced calibration centre in the Netherlands

Our calibration centre has the most advanced equipment to calibrate load measuring devices such as compression load cells and crane scales. We have, among other things, a 35-tonne dynamic testing device, a 55-tonne calibration machine and a 100-tonne static tensile testing machine to test measuring devices for tensile and compressive forces. Our flagship is our new 350-tonne calibration machine to calibrate compression load cells and crane scales. A device with this capacity is unprecedented in the Netherlands, and there is no other hoisting and lifting company that can calibrate compression load cells with this accuracy. You can see that we continue to innovate and invest in the accuracy of your instruments!    

Safety is top of our list

Accurately working load measuring devices are essential to ensure that your work processes run safely. That's why we take the calibration of each instrument extremely seriously, and work to the highest standards and regulations. Van Gool has NEN-EN-ISO 9001 certification and is affiliated with the EKH (Approved Inspection Companies for Hoisting and Lifting Equipment). After each calibration, you will receive a calibration report and a certificate from us. If necessary, we will adjust your instruments so that they're working perfectly.

Repairing and overhauling hoisting and lifting solutions

For over 35 years, Van Gool has been the trusted name for the repair and overhaul of all your hoisting and related equipment: from wire ropes and chains to hoists and winches, and from pallet trucks to fall protection. Our employees have all the necessary knowledge to expertly repair and overhaul your tools, and they only use high-quality branded parts. This not only benefits the safety of you and your employees, but is also better for people and the environment. After all, repairing is more sustainable than replacing, and fits within our vision of Corporate Social Responsibility. Would you like to make an appointment right away or would you like some more information? Don't hesitate to contact us!

Repairs in-house or on site

The repair and overhaul of your equipment is incredibly important, but it would be a pity if it were at the expense of your productivity. To ensure that you don't have to miss your lifting and hoisting equipment for longer than necessary, we not only carry out repairs in our well-equipped workshop in Beverwijk, but we can also work on your location. Learn about our tight and flexible planning and make an immediate repair or overhaul appointment with our mechanics. 

Safety is always our highest priority when carrying out repairs

A small defect in your equipment can have major consequences during hoisting. That is why we always take the repair of your lifting equipment and fall protection extremely seriously. We work according to the latest standards and guidelines, and only use high-quality spare parts. After repair, each product is provided with an inspection certificate. Because prevention is also better than cure in this case, we are also happy to take care of the complete overhaul of your equipment. During an overhaul, all parts are thoroughly checked, cleaned and, where necessary, replaced.
