Load Testing Services
Load Testing Services
With its dynamometer capacity of up to 200 tons and the certifications it holds, DEGEM carries out load testing on all types of lifting equipment on ships and provides its customers with the highest quality and most accurate lifting and load testing services.
Loading tests on lifting equipment are not simply a matter of saying “it’s done.” This activity is directly related to safety and, if improperly executed, poses serious operational risks.
Therefore, the approach to load testing requires a disciplined process that clearly defines the scope, properly sets up the test, applies controlled loads, and delivers complete records.
DEGEM’s objective in load testing is clear: to verify lifting suitability, produce accurate records, and support safe operations post-test. This approach encompasses not only the testing phase but also pre-test preparation and post-test documentation closure.
