NDT & Load Testing in Bundaberg
Salt air is Bundaberg's structural enemy. Machines working the coastal district carry corrosion into weld toes, pin bores and box sections years before an inland machine would, and corrosion is where fatigue cracks start. On agricultural and processing equipment that spends its life outdoors, crack testing isn't a formality at inspection milestones — it's the check that finds what the coast has actually done to the structure.
EWP Australia delivers magnetic particle, dye penetrant and eddy current testing plus certified load testing for EWPs and cranes across Bundaberg and Wide Bay. Testing runs standalone after damage or suspicion, or as part of annual and major inspections — with reports an auditor can follow end to end, identifying method, location and result.
NDT & Load Testing — The Scope
- Magnetic particle, dye penetrant and eddy current crack testing
- NDT of booms, welds, pins, bosses, chassis and outrigger structures
- Load testing to rated capacity with certified weights
- Testing as part of annual, 5-year and 10-year major inspections
- Reports that identify exactly what was tested, where and to what method
- Repair recommendations when indications are found — not just a fail stamp

NDT & Load Testing in Bundaberg — Common Questions
I've spotted rust creeping in near some welds — does that warrant NDT?
Yes, that's a fair prompt to test. Rust sitting beside a structural weld is the classic starting point for a crack, and running the test at this stage costs you far less grief than tackling a crack that has already spread through the metal.
Can the load test happen on our Bundaberg premises?
In most cases, yes — we cart the rated weights out to the machine as long as the access allows it. Pass on the address and how the space is laid out when you book and the test is planned around that.
