How does the inspection of hoisting equipment and fall protection work?
The inspection of your hoisting equipment is vitally necessary, but it doesn't have to be at the expense of your production process. That is why Van Gool carries out inspections as quickly and efficiently as possible. Our inspectors carry out inspections in our own workshop, but can also work on site with a fully equipped mobile testing unit. We perform deflection measurements and inspect both the fixed configurations above the hook (travelling cranes, gantry cranes, slewing cranes, etc.) and the parts below the hook (chains, hooks, loading forks, steel cables, hoisting belts, etc.). Our unit consists of horizontal and vertical tensile and compression testing machines, and technologies such as MPI, Eddy Current and NDO. Once the inspection has been completed, all the inspection reports and tensile proof load reports can be quickly viewed online and you will receive an inspection certificate from us. If necessary, we will thoroughly clean the equipment and respray it in a fresh colour. We can also inspect all your climbing equipment and fall protection for you.
Safety is our top priority
When using hoisting equipment and working at height, safety is the most important requirement. Testing and inspecting hoisting equipment and fall protection equipment is an integral part of ensuring your safety. Not only when required by law, but also at other times. That is why we ensure that no product leaves our premises without a safety certificate. As a company, we have NEN-EN-ISO 9001 certification and an EKH quality mark.
