OVERVIEW
A lifting equipment inspection company required a safe and efficient method of carrying out proof load testing and routine verification of overhead lifting equipment across multiple customer sites. The existing process of sourcing temporary weights was time-consuming, inconsistent, and increased project costs.
To improve testing efficiency and ensure reliable, repeatable results, the company invested in certified modular test weights suitable for a wide range of lifting applications.
CHALLENGES
The inspection team faced several operational challenges during routine proof load testing:
- Hiring test weights for every project increased costs and delays
- Inconsistent weight availability affected testing schedules
- Manual handling of large weights created unnecessary safety risks
- Need to meet LOLER proof load testing and certification requirements
- Transporting weights between customer sites needed to be practical and efficient
The business required a flexible testing solution that improved efficiency while maintaining compliance.
SOLUTION
A range of certified modular test weights was introduced to support proof load testing across multiple lifting applications.
Stackable test weights enabled engineers to quickly build the required test load while reducing transport requirements. Their durable construction and certified accuracy provided a reliable solution for routine equipment verification and LOLER proof load testing.
