Services

JK Lifting offers a wide range of proof load testing services that can be deployed across various structures and components. A proof load test is designed to ensure items of lifting equipment can perform to the required standard as determined by the manufacturers’ guidance. By subjecting items to a full-strength tensile test, we certify their ability to function as intended.

At JK Lifting, our compression testing procedure entails precisely applying controlled pressure to assess materials’ compressive strength and key mechanical characteristics. Our cutting-edge equipment and skilled engineers enable us to conduct comprehensive compression tests on various materials, including concrete, metals, and polymers.

Non-destructive testing (NDT) is a collection of techniques highlighting areas of weakness without degrading or damaging your equipment. Our certified NDT engineers offer Magnetic Particle Inspection (MPI), Dye Penetrant Inspection (DPI), Ultrasonic Testing (UT), Eddy Current Testing (EDT) and Visual Testing (VT). These testing techniques thoroughly evaluate your equipment, enabling you to make informed asset management decisions.

JK Lifting specialises in precise destruction testing services, where controlled loads are applied to materials until they break or fail. This essential process allows us to determine the material’s Minimum Break Load (MBL), a vital mechanical property crucial for designing and manufacturing components and structures. Trust us for accurate destruction testing, ensuring the reliability of your materials for diverse applications.

To ensure the highest level of credibility and compliance in your lifting testing procedures, we can partner with your preferred Third Party IACS provider to assist with Third Party Witness Certification. Further information about IACS can be found here.
