PROBLEM SOLVED
SPECIALIST BOLTING TOOL DIVISION DELIVERS SAFETY IMPROVEMENTS AND CUTS COSTS
ALL TOOLING THEN WENT THROUGH THEIR STANDARD PROCESS… • Initial Visual Examination • Log Manufacturer Name, ID Number & Model
• Carry out Full Appropriate Function Test • Carry out Calibration Process • Log Manufacturer Name, ID Number & Model
• Affix Dated Examination Decal • Create Equipment Register • Issue Appropriate Certification ON- SITE, Hard Copy & Electronic Copy
Testing was carried out over a 3 day period, much longer than was anticipated, but the customer once familiar with the process being carried out and understanding the improved safety benefits decided to get other tools brought in from other remote locations.
ON-SITE SERVICE ADVANTAGES • Correct Safe Operation of Equipment • Verifies Torque Tool Output • Reducing Operational Risk • Reduction of Tooling Downtime • Reduction of Bolting Workflow Disruption
• Immediate Minor Repairs • Traceable Certification • On-site Application Assistance
Following an on-site visit by one of their competent engineers, who have extensive experience in specialist tooling, gives reassurance to equipment owners and users that the tooling will be safe to use having been subject to visual inspection, operational tests, pressure tests and calibration if required, utilising the latest on board tool inspection and testing equipment.
Worlifts were contacted to see if their bolting division could assist with an emergency requirement which involved the assessment, test and on-site calibrations at a new client’s remote site which was undertaking unplanned emergency maintenance work.
The equipment in question was hydraulic low profile torque wrenches with associated AF cassettes and standard manual square drive torque wrenches and all associated equipment i.e. electric hydraulic power packs, hydraulic hoses and various special reaction attachments.
ON-SITE INSPECTION AND CALIBRATION
Their dedicated fully equipped on-site inspection and calibration vehicle was mobilised and attended the customer’s site within 24 hours. One of their Bolting Engineers, Rob Chatley, then set about putting an inspection and test plan into action.
