One of the services provided by our company is testing and inspection of the wire ropes.
All wire ropes should be thoroughly inspected at regular intervals. The longer they are in use, the more frequently and meticulously should their condition be verified. This has a huge impact on occupational safety, as wire ropes typically interpose the pulling and lifting of tons of loads. Their service life is affected by many agents, such as general wear and tear, corrosion, bends, misuse and others. It is advisable to regularly check their condition to prevent malfunctions.
Identification of a problem and recommendations to implement
Wire rope inspection should be performed by someone with special training and practical experience. Remember to keep records of each inspection.
At Dems&Solutions, we inspect and test wire ropes following statutory requirements throughout the offshore industry (including cranes, winches, A&R wire, and towing wire). We use the latest tools and techniques in our daily work, including visual and magnetic rope testing equipment. This is done to identify, quantify and assess the impact of any defects or areas in need of repair. All findings are presented in written condition assessment reports and recommendations on actions to be taken for future use.
