LARGE-CAPACITY HOIST INSTALLATIONS
Supplying, installing, load testing and LOLER certifying a wide range of manual and powered hoist units, HOIST & WINCH says it has extensive experience and expertise in all kinds of industrial lifting operations. However, certain projects require special know-how, such as the installation of large-capacity, electric-powered wire-rope hoists in challenging and restricted access applications. And yet even in these situations, Hoist & Winch says it has a proven methodology to ensure a high-performance, efficient, safety-certified outcome for customers.
Every hoist installation is different, and most generally present some level of challenge to overcome, typically relating to the dimensional clearances of the hoist unit or the logistics of general access conditions.
When the hoist unit’s dimensional clearances are particularly critical, Hoist & Winch carries out a detailed survey prior to manufacture, ensuring that the complete installation can perform the required tasks with sufficient operating clearance.
On some occasions, a pre-installation survey is required to check site/work area access conditions. Hoist & Winch will subsequently submit its Risk Assessment and Method Statement (RAMS) for approval by the customer prior to starting work. These documents detail the installation procedure, the equipment intended for use, and the hazards and risks associated with the various tasks. In addition, the documents will set out how it is possible to minimise or negate these risks.
