Major EWP Inspections in Kalgoorlie (5 & 10-Year)
Goldfields duty is genuinely hard on a machine. A decade of high utilisation on hard-rock mining supply, abrasive red dust getting into everything, and the relentless desert heat cycling hydraulics and seals adds up to structural fatigue and wear that a machine's hour meter alone never captures. The major inspection is where all of that comes out, because it strips the machine back to bare structure rather than trusting what the surface shows.
EWP Australia delivers major inspections for Kalgoorlie owners — full structural strip-down, NDT of critical welds and pins, hydraulic and electrical overhaul assessment, load testing and the engineering documentation that resets the machine's inspection baseline. Whether a machine falls due at five or ten years depends on its equipment class, which we confirm first, then a firm scope and quote are agreed before any disassembly begins.
10-Year Major Inspections — The Scope
- Full strip-down and inspection of structural and load-bearing components
- NDT (crack testing) of welds, pins, bosses and critical sections
- Hydraulic, electrical and safety-system overhaul assessment
- Load testing on completion, witnessed and documented
- Engineering documentation recording the machine's new inspection baseline
- A clear scope and quote before work starts — no open-ended rebuilds

10-Year Major Inspections in Kalgoorlie — Common Questions
Our machines cop a hammering on mining supply — does heavy use bring the major forward?
The due point is fixed by the equipment class rather than how hard a machine works, but hard duty makes the strip-down and NDT all the more worthwhile, since high hours and abrasive conditions generate the very fatigue and wear a major is designed to catch.
When does my machine's major fall — the five-year mark or the ten-year one?
That's down to the equipment class, with some machines due at five years and others at ten. Send the make, model and plate details through and the applicable interval is confirmed before anything is scheduled.
