Gear Inspections There are different levels of servicing. Complex work has to be carried out by experts.
 
Types of services:

Typical gear inspection: this inspection comprises measurement of the vibrations of large gear units, assessment of tooth impressions and a visual inspection (as described below) of the condition of the gear. The vibrations are recorded, charted and analysed in our laboratories. The final report includes vibration spectrograms, an evaluation of the gear/unit condition, and our recommendations for adjustment and repair.

Routine servicing: A visual inspection (as described below) will be performed. After that, the gear is stopped and opened. The service engineer checks the gear in detail and carefully. He performs various measurements and checks the condition of spare and unit parts. The results of his tests provide information about the condition of the gear unit and state of stored spare parts. Any incipient damage is detected at an early-stage and remedied. Through regular servicing signs of wear and tear can be observed and upcoming overhauls can be properly planned. This significantly reduces the risk of a breakdown and a loss of production.

Visual inspection: This  inspection is carried out during ongoing operation. The service engineer reads the operating data, measures vibrations and checks the condition of the gear/unit. A closer examination is not possible during ongoing operation. The visual inspection provides an indication of a proper running gear. The condition of the spare parts on stock  will also be visually inspected.

Overhaul: The customer can actively ensure a long life for the gear system by having it overhauled. The gear/unit will be removed and carefully examined on site or in a local workshop. Damaged wear parts are replaced. The customer receives back a renewed and reliable gear/unit.

Repair: In the event of damage . We conduct the repair on site if possible. If the damage is major the gear/ unit must be dismantled and repaired in a workshop.

Visual inspections are requested by buyers or sellers to ensure that their cargo is loaded in sound condition and stowed properly. Such inspections also provide assurance that the cargo being shipped is the cargo that you have bought or sold. A cargo visual inspection gives you the security of knowing that your cargo has been verified by the  leader in shipping inspections.

Global inspectors complete visual inspections at the time of loading or unloading or after a transaction is finalized.

Our standardized inspections include the following steps:

• Inspection of the carrier to verify suitability for the intended cargo (cleanliness, dryness, ventilation, cargo separation)
• A report on markings, type of packing (bulk, cartons/drums, etc.) and, if practical, a count of goods

 Inspectors record, photograph and report any abnormalities such as discrepancies in the cargo description, damage, loss of material, improper stowing or delays in loading. You can trust us to be your representative in any port, worldwide. Our objective verification and inspection team provide accurate, transparent documentation and always represent your interests during the handling of your bulk cargo.
