NDT & Load Testing in Melbourne
Melbourne's high-utilisation fleet earns its fatigue honestly — scissors cycling all day in distribution centres, booms craning over facade work, truck-mounted platforms shaking down freeways between jobs. Metal keeps score. Crack testing is how you read that score before a weld lets go, and load testing is how you prove the machine still does what its plate claims.
EWP Australia provides magnetic particle, dye penetrant and eddy current testing plus certified load testing for EWPs and cranes across metropolitan Melbourne. Testing slots into annual and major inspections or runs standalone after damage, overload or engineering referral — with reports that stand up in any compliance review.
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 Melbourne — Common Questions
A machine took a knock on site. Does it need NDT before working again?
If structure was involved — boom, basket, chassis, outriggers — yes, get it tested before it lifts anyone. Impact damage propagates in ways visual checks miss.
Do you test both EWPs and the cranes in a mixed Melbourne fleet?
Yes — one testing provider across the whole fleet means one method standard and one report format, which auditors and insurers both prefer.
