OSHA-Compliant Training

Operating a crane involves significant safety concerns, much like any other type of equipment or machinery.

It is crucial for crane operators and workers in the vicinity to follow specific procedures and guidelines to ensure their safety and that of others around them.

Our training program covers the fundamentals of crane safety, offering an overview of the necessary precautions.

Inspections

Regularly scheduled crane inspections are a cost-effective way for companies to ensure compliance with local regulations and address safety and production issues. Compliance inspections are intended to fulfill regulatory requirements established by government agencies, such as OSHA.

However, simply having an annual compliance inspection is not enough to guarantee compliance. Regulations and industry standards necessitate preventive maintenance, repairs to address deficiencies, lifetime inspections, general overhauls, engineering evaluations, and load tests.

CRB Crane offers both compliance and preventive maintenance inspections conducted by a CRB Crane trained and qualified inspector. The inspector will assess the crane's condition and provide recommendations for repair, replacement, or adjustment. We also provide an inspection report that meets local statutory requirements.

The hoist is an essential component of the overhead crane, and several factors can lead to the need for hoist repairs. These may include electrical component failure, shock loads, or the age of the crane. Our primary objective is to minimize your downtime by bring the equipment to our site for repairs. We offer comprehensive in-house repair services for all types and brands of manual hoists, electric hoists, and pullers, including CM, Coffing, Harrington, Yale, Shawbox, R&M Material Handling, and many more.
