• Cables and Wires: Check for frayed cables, loose connections, and damaged insulation. Ensure cables are properly supported and not dragging or rubbing against other components.
• Bảng điều khiển: Inspect the control panel for signs of overheating, Ăn mòn, or water damage. Test the buttons, công tắc, and indicators to ensure they are functioning correctly.
• Công tắc giới hạn: Verify the operation of upper and lower limit switches for the hoist, as well as travel limit switches for the bridge and trolley. These switches prevent the crane from moving beyond safe limits.

Operational Testing

After the visual inspection, perform operational tests to ensure the crane functions properly under load (Nếu có) and no-load conditions.

• 1. No-Load Test: Turn on the power and test the hoist, cầu, and trolley movements in all directions. Check for smooth operation, unusual noises, and proper braking. Ensure the limit switches activate when the crane reaches the safe limits.
• 2. Load Test: Conduct a load test using a test load that is 100% ĐẾN 125% công suất định mức của cần cẩu (follow manufacturer guidelines). Slowly lift the load, move it horizontally, and lower it. Observe for any excessive deflection of the bridge girder, unusual noises from components, or issues with the brake system. Ensure the load remains stable throughout the test.
• 3. Post-Test Checks: After completing operational tests, turn off the power and perform a final visual check of key components to ensure no new issues arose during testing. Check for any loose fasteners or signs of stress that may have developed.

Documentation and Follow-Up

Thorough documentation and timely follow-up are indispensable to maintain the crane’s safety record and address issues promptly. Skipping this step can lead to overlooked problems that escalate into major hazards.

• 1. Record Inspection Details: Document every aspect of the inspection, bao gồm cả ngày, tên thanh tra, crane identification number, and a comprehensive list of components checked. For each component, note its condition—whether it’s in good shape, shows minor wear, or has critical defects. Attach photos or videos of problematic areas to provide visual evidence.
• 2. Classify Defects by Severity: Categorize defects to prioritize repairs: – Critical: Defects that pose immediate danger (VÍ DỤ., cracked hook, broken wire ropes). The crane must be taken out of service immediately until repairs are completed and verified. – Major: Issues that could become critical soon (VÍ DỤ., worn brake pads below recommended thickness). Schedule repairs within a short timeframe, and restrict the crane’s use if necessary. – Minor: Cosmetic damage or slight wear that doesn’t affect safety (VÍ DỤ., minor paint chipping). Address these during routine maintenance.
• 3. Update Maintenance Logs: Integrate the inspection report into the crane’s official maintenance log. This log should track all inspections, sửa chữa, sự thay thế, and lubrication schedules. It serves as a historical record for future inspections and helps identify recurring issues.
• 4. Communicate and Assign Actions: Share the inspection report with relevant stakeholders, including maintenance teams, người giám sát, and crane operators. Assign clear responsibilities for repairing defects—specify who will do the work, when it will be completed, and how it will be verified. Follow up to ensure all actions are carried out as planned.

How often do overhead cranes need to be inspected?

The frequency of overhead crane inspections depends on usage, môi trường, and regulatory requirements. Here are general guidelines:

• 1. Kiểm tra hàng ngày: Conducted by the operator before each shift. Check for obvious issues like damaged hooks, loose cables, or abnormal noises during startup.
• 2. Monthly/Quarterly Inspections: Performed by maintenance personnel. Include a more detailed visual check and basic operational tests.
• 3. Kiểm tra hàng năm: Comprehensive inspections by qualified inspectors (certified by relevant authorities). This includes load testing, detailed component measurements, and electrical system diagnostics.
• 4. After Major Repairs or Accidents: Inspect the crane thoroughly after any significant repairs, sửa đổi, or incidents (VÍ DỤ., quá tải, collision) to ensure it’s safe to operate.
