AC Crane Maintenance provides professional crane load testing and lifting equipment certification for overhead cranes, hoists, gantries, jib cranes, monorails, forklifts, lifting beams, man cages and goods lifts across South Africa.
We test and certify a wide range of cranes and lifting equipment using calibrated equipment and proper inspection procedures to verify structural integrity, safe operation and compliance.
Under South Africa’s Driven Machinery Regulations and Occupational Health & Safety Act (OHSA), lifting machinery and lifting equipment must be inspected, examined and load tested at prescribed intervals to ensure safe operation, structural integrity and legal compliance. Load testing is mandatory before equipment is placed into service, after major repairs or modifications, after dismantling and reinstallation, and thereafter at intervals not exceeding 12 months.
Every crane and lifting machine is subjected to a systematic inspection and performance testing procedure to verify safe working load capacity, operational safety and compliance with applicable South African regulations and standards.
Load testing helps identify structural weaknesses, worn components, unsafe operating conditions and overloading risks before equipment failure occurs. Proper inspection and certification protects personnel, equipment and operations.
South African lifting regulations require lifting machinery and lifting equipment to be load tested and examined under several mandatory conditions to ensure continued safe operation.
AC Crane Maintenance performs professional load testing and lifting equipment inspections for industrial facilities, warehouses, factories, mining operations, engineering workshops and construction sites across Gauteng and South Africa.
As an approved Lifting Machinery Entity (LME 526), we provide detailed reporting, compliance certification and professional support for overhead cranes, jib cranes, hoists, forklifts, lifting beams, monorails and lifting equipment.
We provide professional crane load testing services throughout Johannesburg, Pretoria, Centurion, Midrand, East Rand, West Rand and surrounding industrial areas, with nationwide support available for large-scale industrial and mining operations.
Regular inspections and performance tests help ensure lifting equipment remains compliant, safe and legally certified for operation while reducing operational risk and unexpected downtime.
