The Dictionary Defines InspectionAs"Careful Investigation; Critical Examination";However, Not Every Overhead Crane SystemInspection Is The Same Some inspection companies define an inspection as "walking around your shop floor, performing an operational test of your overhead crane system and then giving you a piece of paper showing that your system has been inspected". There are a few things missing from their inspection!They do not go up in the air where the equipment isThey do not remove covers to inspect brakes and limit switchesThey do not check lubrication levels or operating mechanismsThey do not check structural componentsThey do not check bolted and welded connectionsThey do not check safety featuresAt Washington Crane & Hoist Company, "inspection" is more than a word. Our Inspection Program covers every operating mechanism, all wear items, safety features, structural components, bolted and welded connections and code compliance. Our inspectors remove component covers to inspect brake operation and adjustment, hoist limit switch function and proper lubrication of all gearboxes, wire rope and load chain.When our inspections are completed, you will receive a detailed report. You can be assured that you will have a thorough understanding of the condition of your equipment from the perspective of safety, compliance and reliability. A crane system inspection is more than a piece of paperto show the State Inspector and goes beyond Code Compliance. The real value of an inspection is increased safety, reduced liability exposure and an awareness of maintenance issues that could contribute to unplanned shutdowns.Inspection of your overhead crane system is a basic requirementcovered by State and Federal Code. We believe a thorough inspection is a basic requirement for protecting your employees, your investment and your production line.

Increased load carrying capacity and track life - the lower section of Tarca track is specially rolled from high carbon billet and welded to a structural steel web and top flange. This construction of the track increases its load carrying capacity while retaining its non-peening qualities and significantly increasing track life.Peening - gradual movement of metal by the rolling action of wheels. The metal moves to one or both sides of the rail, depending on the rail design, and is the chief source of wear. Raised tread stays flat and smooth - raised tread design allows metal to flow in both directions when repeatedly subjected to a rolling load; the tread stays flat and smooth allowing for easy rolling of loaded wheels.Maximum strength, maximum rigidity, and greater safety - the high carbon alloy steel rail is joined by a carefully controlled welding process which means maximum strength and rigidity and greater safety. Standardized rail widths - the most distinguishing feature of patented rail is that a rail of uniform width can be maintained over a wide range of beam depths and carrying capacities. This uniformity provides a basis for standardization not only in trolleys and end trucks, but also in interlocks, electrification brackets, and other accessories. A better installation, faster - overall track depth is held to close tolerances. Flange and rail are held square with the web. This accuracy eliminates time consuming shimming and fitting during erection. Systems fit neatly together for smooth, quiet operation.
