Do you have a repair and maintenance program for your lifting equipment?

The maintenance and repair of lifting equipment is at the heart of plant safety issues. Given the importance of safety, it's crucial to have a maintenance program in place. Not only is this an important element, it is also one of the requirements of the CSA B167-26 standard . Has your company implemented such a program?

It goes without saying that "lifting equipment and hoists must be maintained and repaired" to ensure safety for all. But this maintenance must also be carried out "in accordance with all applicable requirements and the manufacturer's instructions" (CSA B167-26 , see also RSST 245.5 and LSST 51.7). This applies to maintenance personnel, safety procedures, tools and spare parts. Here's an interesting tool for carrying out work safely (Temporary end stops).

What are the prerequisites for overhead crane maintenance?

First of all, the CSA B167-26 standard sets out the prerequisites for those who will be performing this work. In short, anyone involved in the maintenance of lifting equipment must have a certain number of hours of direct experience in this field, as well as a recognized professional designation, as shown in the attached box. Indeed, it is a natural expectation that personnel servicing this specialized equipment have knowledge, experience and training in all aspects of its operation (CSA B167-26).

Summary of requirements for people who will perform maintenance and repairs on lifting equipment :
