Knuckle Boom Crane Load Testing:
The use of water bags or concrete blocks for vessel crane proof load testing services is recognized as a safe technique for slowly applying the test load. This allows technical problems with the crane to be recognized and corrected prior reaching the full test load. In addition, load water can be drained without have to lower the test weight. This would be helpful in situations where the hoisting system or brakes were compromised in some way.

Al Meena Marine is authorized company who can provide load testing service in Pakistan marine industry. Our load cells are re-calibrated annually to ensure the measured loading on your crane is reported accurately. In addition, our load cells are sufficiently accurate to allow for calibration of your crane’s load indicating system. This is normally performed by staging up the test load to several calibration points, thereby enhancing the accuracy of the measured load once the crane is returned to service.
