5-Year Major EWP Inspections in Bendigo
Bendigo's growing fleet includes machines purchased during the city's recent residential and commercial expansion that are now approaching their first mid-life major inspection point. Whether the applicable interval is 5 or 10 years depends on the equipment class — and establishing that correctly, along with a clear scope of what the teardown will involve, is the starting point for every major inspection in a fleet that may be encountering the milestone for the first time.
EWP Australia delivers 5-year major inspections across Bendigo and central Victoria — class confirmation before any teardown work is planned, then structural assessment at the level the milestone requires, NDT of critical welds and sections, and documentation that sets a new inspection baseline for the machine's compliance record.
5-Year Major Inspections — The Scope
- Class confirmation — we verify whether a 5 or 10-year major applies to each machine
- Teardown-level assessment of structural and load-bearing components
- NDT (crack testing) of welds, pins, slew rings and structural connections
- Hydraulic and electrical overhaul assessment at the disassembly level
- Functional and load testing on completion
- Engineering documentation establishing the machine's new inspection baseline

5-Year Major Inspections in Bendigo — Common Questions
Is a 5-year major inspection different from a major service for a Bendigo machine?
Yes — a major service addresses mechanical wear and consumables; a major inspection is a structural and safety-critical assessment at teardown level, required by the equipment class at the milestone age. The two are different obligations with different scopes.
Can the 5-year major be scheduled around Bendigo's residential construction peak?
Yes — planning the teardown outside the busiest project period keeps the machine available when demand is highest. Tell us the fleet's operational calendar when you enquire.
