EXTENDING THE OPERATIONAL LIFE OF LIFTING EQUIPMENT

As lifting equipment and associated components age, efficiency and reliability are inevitably compromised, often resulting in higher operating costs and potential safety implications. To address these issues, Demag Cranes & Components Ltd recommends that its lifting equipment should be subject to a general overhaul at least every ten years of its operational life.

Demag general overhaul programmes have been designed to restore equipment to optimum performance and safety levels, providing a cost effective alternative to investment in new materials handling technologies. Such regimes, backed by ongoing certification, also help operators meet obligations under workplace health and safety legislation, including the Health & Safety at Work Act 1974, LOLER 1998 and PUWER 1998. At a time when health and safety is high on the public agenda, in an increasingly litigious society, accidents or injuries arising from poorly maintained plant and equipment, may lead to the investigation and prosecution of employers under these statutes. In extreme cases, where a fatality occurs, prosecution and expensive compensation claims may be brought under the Corporate Manslaughter & Homicide Act 2007.
