In Southern Tasmania—Derwent Park, Glenorchy and the port precincts—overhead cranes are critical for marine, aquaculture and advanced manufacturing. Our Hobart team recently completed a full 10-year inspection and overhaul package on a workshop bridge crane supporting local fabrication work.

Why 10-Year Inspections Matter

Coastal conditions and intermittent duty can mask underlying issues. A 10-year inspection aligned to AS 2550.1/2550.3 and AS 1418.3 confirms condition and keeps your crane compliant and dependable.

Our 10-Year Scope in Hobart

  • Visual examination & measurement: Structure, trolley/crab, hook and sheaves, rope/chain, wheels and runway interfaces.

  • Alignment remediation: Corrected skew and end-carriage tracking to reduce wear, energy use and operator input.

  • NDT on critical areas: Hooks, structural welds and end-carriage/trolley frames tested to detect early-stage cracking.

  • Oil sampling: Hoist and travel gearboxes—wear metals, water ingress and additive health to guide overhaul actions.

  • Electrical & safety checks: Limits, brakes, overloads, pendants/radios, earthing and isolation verified with rectifications.

  • Targeted overhaul: Consumables, bearings, seals and brake components renewed as required with full traceability.

  • Compliance pack: Findings, photos, NDT reports and recommendations tied back to standards and your maintenance plan.

Results You Can Measure
Post-alignment, the crane showed smoother traversing and reduced wheel temperature rise. NDT and oil analysis provided an objective baseline and clear next-service intervals.
