In accordance with AS1418.18 runway structures are required to be inspected Biannually by an independent body. In addition to this, it is important for crane runways to be properly aligned so as to prevent premature wheel and component failure. In order for Total Hoists and Cranes to supply our customers with the best possible service, we have utilised ‘Robotic Total Station’ technology. The equipment enables us to achieve rail height and span deviation measurements to an accuracy of +- 1mm over 200m. Total Hoists and Cranes then analyse this information to formulate a comprehensive report on the condition of the runway and make recommendations on corrective actions. This technology can also be utilised when installing new crane rails or inspecting end carriage alignment on existing cranes.
