KNOW THE CONDITION OF YOUR EQUIPMENT BEFORE IT BECOMES A PROBLEM
Routine inspections help identify wear, damage and developing issues before they lead to unexpected downtime or larger repairs. HSI provides thorough inspection services for cranes, hoists and industrial lifting equipment.

INSPECTIONS GIVE YOU A CLEARER PICTURE OF EQUIPMENT CONDITION
Cranes, hoists and lifting systems operate under repeated loads, movement and wear. Components can loosen, deteriorate or fall out of adjustment over time, even when the equipment appears to be operating normally.
HSI inspections help identify those conditions before they develop into larger issues. Our technicians evaluate critical equipment components, document findings and help your team understand what needs attention.

Inspection Capabilities
THOROUGH EQUIPMENT EVALUATION FROM HOOK TO RUNWAY
HSI evaluates the components and operating conditions that affect the safety, reliability and performance of your lifting equipment, helping your team make more informed maintenance decisions.
01
CRANE INSPECTIONS
Evaluation of overhead crane systems, travel components and operating condition to identify wear, damage and developing concerns.
02
HOIST INSPECTIONS
Inspection of hoists, hooks, chains, wire rope, brakes and related lifting components for signs of wear or damage.
03
MECHANICAL COMPONENTS
Review of wheels, bearings, gears, fasteners and other mechanical components subject to wear during normal operation.
04
ELECTRICAL & CONTROLS
Evaluation of controls, limit devices, wiring and electrical components that affect equipment operation and reliability.
05
STRUCTURAL CONDITION
Visual evaluation of runway systems, support components and structural elements associated with the lifting equipment.
06
FINDINGS & RECOMMENDATIONS
Documentation of identified conditions with recommendations for maintenance, repair or additional evaluation.
PREVENTIVE EQUIPMENT CARE
SMALL ISSUES ARE EASIER TO ADDRESS BEFORE THEY BECOME BIG ONES
Routine inspections create an opportunity to identify wear, damage and abnormal equipment conditions before they result in a failure or unexpected interruption. Better information also helps your team plan service and repairs instead of reacting after equipment goes down.
EARLY IDENTIFICATION
Identify developing problems before they become more serious.
BETTER MAINTENANCE PLANNING
Use inspection findings to prioritize service and repair work.
MORE RELIABLE OPERATION
Stay ahead of conditions that can contribute to unexpected downtime.
AFTER THE INSPECTION
TURN FINDINGS INTO ACTION
An inspection is most valuable when the findings lead to the right next steps. HSI can help address identified issues through preventive maintenance, repairs and testing, giving you one team to move from evaluation to completed service.
PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE
Address routine service needs and developing wear before they become larger equipment problems.
EXPLORE MAINTENANCE →REPAIRS
Correct mechanical, electrical and equipment issues identified during the inspection.
EXPLORE REPAIRS →LOAD TESTING
Verify lifting equipment performance when testing is required following repair, modification or other service.
EXPLORE LOAD TESTING →BUILD A USEFUL EQUIPMENT HISTORY
BETTER INFORMATION MAKES MAINTENANCE EASIER TO PLAN
A single inspection shows what your equipment looks like today. A consistent inspection program creates a record your team can use to spot recurring issues, understand how conditions are changing, and make better decisions about maintenance, repairs, and replacement.
01
ESTABLISH A BASELINE
Document current equipment condition and identify the items that need immediate attention, monitoring, or follow-up service.
02
TRACK CHANGE OVER TIME
Recurring inspection findings can help reveal patterns, accelerating wear, and conditions that deserve closer attention before they become failures.
03
PLAN WORK BEFORE IT BECOMES URGENT
Use inspection history to prioritize maintenance, repairs, parts, or replacement around your operation instead of waiting for downtime to set the schedule.
WHEN WAS YOUR EQUIPMENT LAST INSPECTED?
KNOW WHAT NEEDS ATTENTION BEFORE DOWNTIME MAKES THE DECISION FOR YOU.
Whether you need a routine inspection, evaluation of a specific concern or help establishing an ongoing inspection schedule, HSI can help you understand the condition of your lifting equipment and determine the right next steps.
