Major EWP Inspections in Devonport (5 & 10-Year)

A decade on Tasmania's north-west coast is a decade of damp and salt air. Devonport's cool, wet maritime climate keeps moisture working on machines the year round, driving corrosion into box sections, pin bores and electrical systems where a surface inspection can never confirm it. The major inspection is where the machine is stripped back to bare structure and that hidden decade of coastal weather is finally brought into the open.

EWP Australia delivers major inspections for Devonport owners — full structural strip-down, NDT of welds, pins and bosses, hydraulic and electrical overhaul assessment, load testing and the engineering documentation that resets the machine's inspection baseline. Major inspections fall due at five or ten years depending on the machine's class, which we confirm first, then the scope and quote are agreed before disassembly so the job stays defined.

FAQs

10-Year Major Inspections in Devonport — Common Questions

In this sort of climate, is corrosion generally what a major ends up uncovering?

Very frequently it is. Moisture-driven corrosion tucked inside the structure is precisely what the strip-down and NDT are meant to expose, and picking it up at the major costs far less than a failure in service.

Is there a way to know if my machine's major lands at five years or ten?

The equipment class governs it — some machines reach the major at five years and others at ten. Pass on the make, model and plate details and the interval that fits yours is confirmed before you commit.
