NDT & Load Testing in Coffs Harbour
On the Coffs coast, salt air is the structural enemy. Machines working near the ocean carry corrosion into weld toes, pin bores and box sections years before an inland machine would, and corrosion is exactly where fatigue cracks begin. Crack testing on coastal machines isn't a box-tick at inspection milestones — it's the check that reveals what constant sea breeze has done to the structure.
EWP Australia provides magnetic particle, dye penetrant and eddy current testing plus certified load testing for EWPs and cranes across Coffs Harbour and the Mid North Coast — standalone after damage or suspicion, or built into annual, 5-year and 10-year inspections. Reports identify exactly what was tested, where, to what method and result, with repair recommendations whenever indications are found.
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 Coffs Harbour — Common Questions
We've spotted corrosion sitting beside a structural weld — should we get it tested?
It's a genuine trigger. That's the very location where a crack is most likely to initiate, so testing it now works out far cheaper than repairing one that's had time to run.
Will the load test come to our yard in Coffs?
Usually — the certified weights are transported out to the machine wherever there's room and safe access. Give us the location and any access constraints and the day's testing gets planned around them.
