Why Load Testing?
Load testing is the controlled process of evaluating an overhead crane’s ability to lift, lower, and move a known test load safely through its full range of motion. It confirms that the crane’s structural components, hoisting mechanisms, brakes, and control systems all function correctly while supporting a specified weight.
We provide crane load testing services for overhead cranes, mobile cranes, hoists, and below‑the‑hook devices throughout Philadelphia, South Jersey, North Jersey, New York, Maryland and Western Pennsylvania.
