Testing Facility

• Chemical & Physical Testing : Materials used for equipments and structurals i.e. M.S.Plates, Bars, Seamless Pipes, Forgings etc shall be tested as per IS:2062 from approved laboratories viz. Fan Services, Nasik; Premier Electrodes, Nasik etc. All plates shall be ultrasonically tested.
• Hardening & Stress Relieving Tests : Hardening & Stress Relieveing Tests for Wheels, Gear Box Castings, Gears and Pinions etc. is done as per IS:1570 from reputed laboratories viz. Unique Treatments, Nasik.
• Welding All butt welds on structural members subject to tension are radiographically tested as per IS:4853 from Radiographic Services, Mumbai. All other non-load taking welds are to be visually examined and as per ASME - Section VII.

• Ultrasonic Testing : As per IS:3664 for thickness greater than 50mm.

CONTROL PANEL AND ELECTRICAL TESTS :

• Functional Test of the Control panel by simulating working condition. (a) Insulation Resistance Test (b) High voltage test with the following voltages :- 2.5 KV for one minute for the main power circuit. 1.5 KV for one minute for all control circuits.
• Following tests shall be carried out in each of the resistance unit :- (a) Insulation Resistance Test (b) High voltage test at 2.5 KV for one minute (c) Temperature rise test to be conducted on the resistor unit on each type.

• Final Inspection (Saico) Gear box testing bed. Wheel assembly testing columns. Tachometer. Deflection Testing Instrument. (Facility Available)
• Precision Measuring Instruments (Saico) Outside Micrometer 0.5 to 875-1000 mm. (0-300mm) Inside Micrometer 12mm. to 1000 mm. (0-300mm) Vernier depth gauge. Tooth Vernier calliper. Sound Detector for Gear Boxes Vernier calliper 0-1000 mm. (0-300mm) Dial bore gauges 18-35, 50-160, 160-250. Welding Gauge.
• Load Tests Load, Overload and Deflection tests shall also be carried out at our works as per IS:3177 and IS:807. For overload test the crane shall be tested with 125% of safe working load on hoisting and cross traverse motions on the equipment. We have two fabricated stands to rest the Girders so as to carry out the load test upto 50 Tonnes.

The new era of crane manufacture incorporate latest technologies, viz;

• Radio Remote Controls- These are used if the operator cannot work in the crane area.
• Variable Voltage Frequency Drives - These are used to obtain variable speeds in any of the motions

After Sales Plan

We have got two full fledge erection Teams equipped with motorized Winches of 10 T and 20T Capacities along with Derriks and other accessories. The teams are managed separate Electrical and Mechanical Engineers. At any given time, we are equipped to cater the erection of cranes at two different sites. In addition, we have appointed qualified Service Engineers to offer prompt Services to our Customers and attend their problems within 24 hours as far as possible.

We provide the Customers with detailed maintenance manual and also adequately train the personnels appointed by the client to handle minor breakdowns during the installation of the cranes. We also recommend maintenance of certain spares as stock so as to curtail the down time of the cranes therby leading to reduction in the production loss.
