INSPECTION AND CERTIFICATION SERVICES

We are the home of the Integra Cert tm portable load test unit. Our load test units can load test equipment up to 125,000 lbs. Our portable system can adjust to suit any size basket, box or skid. We provide load testing in accordance with all applicable industry standards such as: (1) BSEN 7072 (2) BSEN 12079 (3) Shell Standards (4) BP Standards (5) BHP Standards.

This unique load testing method provides a full integrity load test of shipping containers, boxes, baskets and skid. Our equipment tests more than just the pad eyes. By simulating actual load on the equipment, we can test the strength of the bottom, sides and overall construction integrity of the cargo unit. During testing, we conduct a visual inspection and an inspection of all material welds that are in critical load areas. A Magnetic Particle Inspection (MPI) of all critical areas is also performed. We provide a certificate of load test and inspection along with NDT results.

Crane Inspection Services

DCS Ghana Limited in partnership with Crane Tech, can relieve your staff of this time consuming and technically demanding task. Each DCS inspector is a fully qualified inspector by Crane Tech. CRANE TECH under US Department of Labor Maritime inspections are conducted by personnel accredited under 29CFR Part 1919. This assures you that each inspector has met rigorous performance requirements with documented experience.

In many ways Crane Tech wrote the book on material handling inspection. Starting in the 1970's many organizations, as well as the US Department of Labor, had limited compliance inspection skills. Through the efforts of Crane Tech many of today's inspection procedures and reporting methods were pioneered by the founders of our company. This tradition continues to the present time, with extensive inspector training for the US Department of Labor, and Minerals Management Services compliance officers, hence this prompted DCS Ghana Limited to go into partnership with no other company but CRANE TECH. When you consider who is qualified to perform critical inspections, it should be DCS Ghana Limited in partnership with Crane Tech.
