ENGINEERED SERVICES

EXPERIENCE AND EXPERTISE. 

Ranger have the experience and expertise to find the right solution for your special lift or project.

When standard equipment falls short of your project’s demands, we step in to develop a solution tailored to your specific requirements.

With the assistance of our engineering partners, we can design and manufacture customised equipment including jibs and hoists, spreader beams, work cages or materials handling equipment such as gas cylinder trolleys and lifting attachments.

COMPLIANCE WITHOUT COMPROMISE

Rest assured, our designs adhere strictly to Australian Standards, guaranteeing compliance without excessive costs. We prioritize cost-effectiveness without compromising on safety or quality, ensuring your project stays on track and within budget.

OUR ENGINEERING SERVICES 

INCIDENT REPORTS
Ranger can assist with technical support and reporting around incidents. Our technical expertise and experience along with our testing machinery can help to establish the cause of the incident and support the investigation process. We can also offer advice on safe and appropriate solutions going forward.

REVERESE ENGINEERING
Ranger can offer a service whereby an existing fabricated lifting asset can be assessed by its design, material dimensions, proposed function etc against the requirements of AS 4991. This can verify the likely compliance of such an asset where the original engineering and design computations are not available. The reverse engineering is often done in conjunction with a strip down and refurbishment and should include an NDT regime.

STRIPPING DOWN, CLEANING AND INSPECTING EQUIPMENT
Ranger is able to offer a full refurbishment service where used lifting equipment can stripped down, cleaned, inspected and NDT tested before being repainted, re-tested and put back into service. This refurbishment can add many years of service life to the asset and is more economical than new replacement.

ASSESSING DIMENSIONAL WEAR AGAINST LOADING REQUIREMENTS
The assessment of dimensional wear is critical to the inspection process. Manufacturers and Australian Standards will specify allowable wear tolerances for lifting equipment. The Ranger inspection process will assess dimensional wear compared to manufacturer recommendations to check complaince as to whether the asset can remain in service or needs to be removed or repaired.

PROOF LOAD TESTING
The assessment of dimensional wear is critical to the inspection process. Manufacturers and Australian Standards will specify allowable wear tolerances for lifting equipment. The Ranger inspection process will assess dimensional wear compared to manufacturer recommendations to check compliance as to whether the asset can remain in service or needs to be removed or repaired.
