Safety inspections are required for industrial equipment, such as mobile cranes, at regular intervals regulated by local legislation in the U.S. Demag conducts safety inspections on equipment it has manufactured to ensure its safety and affixes a label to each crane stating the date of the next required inspection.
A Demag safety inspection includes a visual inspection and function tests to ensure component safety. Functionality tests include the movement of a mobile crane with a load comparable to its maximum load capacity. Other tests performed in the safety inspection include brake checks when loaded to maximum capacity.
Demag also provides training for employees of companies operating Demag mobile cranes at its facility in Cleveland, Ohio. Safety training can be designed to fit specific equipment used by a company.
