Slings and Accessories Inspection

Comprehensive tools to manage slings and accessories

No matter what you are lifting – you are probably using a number of different load lifting attachments in your daily operations. The safe use of lifting attachments requires regular inspections to make sure they are working properly, and an identification tag can help you keep track of the equipment and their inspection information.

Konecranes Slings and Accessories Inspection combines radio frequency identification (RFID) tags and a smartphone app to help you quickly and reliably identify attachments and record device inspection data.

Inspection data can be saved directly to the RFID chip and using Near Field Communication (NFC) technology – you simply hold a smartphone close to the RFID tag to quickly see the inspection data.

 

Compliance inspection

The inspection is performed by a competent technician who is trained and qualified. The technician identifies deficiencies and deviations from statutory requirements that may pose risks to your lifting operations and employee safety.

As part of the inspection the technicians may also recommend more appropriate attachments where needed to increase safety such as when a recurrent cause of defect appears.

We can also provide repairs and replacements for attachments that failed the inspection to help reduce downtime.
