CONSULTATION SERVICES

Khodiyar Engineers uses leading technology and trained specialists to offer a variety of consultation services that take a deeper look at your crane and its components. Some of the consultation services we offer include Gear Case Inspections, RopeQ, Magnetic Wire Rope Inspection, Crane Reliability Study, CraneQ, Geometric Survey, RailQ, Runway Survey and Operator Training.

A Crane Reliability Study will assess the current condition of your crane and its remaining life. A team of trained Khodiyar Engineers specialists will gather information, perform a detailed inspection, provide customized calculations and perform an engineering analysis. The comprehensive report and expert consultation will give you a roadmap for equipment repairs, modernizations or replacement.

Wire ropes can contain hundreds of individual wires. Broken strands on the rope exterior can be found by visual inspections, but the condition of the core and inner wire strands cannot be seen. RopeQ combines visual and magnetic inspection methods to assess your rope exterior as well as the internal wires, strands and core that are not readily visible. The data can be used to assess whether the wire rope can continue to be safely used.

A Gear Case Inspection looks at internal components that are not typically evaluated during a routine inspection. We use an endoscope to visually inspect the gear wheels, bearings, shafts and keys, and perform an oil analysis. In some circumstances we recommend a gear case disassembly and non-destructive evaluation of the individual gears and other internal components.

Your rails may not be as straight as you think. A RailQ™ Runway Survey uses a remotely operated robot to give you an in-depth view of the alignment and condition of your crane rails. Measuring span, straightness, elevation and rail-to-rail elevation, RailQ gives you an easy-to-read report with 3D images that visualize the problem areas of your rails. Our engineers will review the data and provide recommendations. Combine RailQ with a CraneQ™ Geometric Survey for more information about the alignment of your crane’s wheels, guide rollers and other components.

Studies show human error is often the cause of crane accidents. Our crane operator training helps reduce errors and add skills that help avoid possible injury to personnel caused by improper operations. Training can be performed at your site or a Khodiyar Engineers training facility.
