Our services in detail

Inspection in accordance with DGUV R 108-006

DGUV Rule 108-006 (formerly BGR 233) stipulates that loading bridges and mobile ramps must be inspected at least once a year by a competent person. We carry out these inspections professionally and document them in digital inspection reports.

Our inspection includes: - Visual inspection of all components - Functional testing of safety devices - Inspection of hydraulics and electrics - Checking of labeling in accordance with DIN EN 1398 - Creation of a legally compliant test report

After the inspection, the digital test report is immediately available to you in our customer portal.

Maintenance and inspection

Regular maintenance extends the service life of your loading technology and prevents unplanned downtime. We offer customized maintenance contracts tailored to your usage intensity.

Typical maintenance work: - Lubrication of all moving parts - Adjustment of feed and contact pressure - Inspection of hydraulic lines and hoses - Inspection and retightening of screw connections

Repair and maintenance

Defective loading technology means downtime. That's why we are available around the clock via our service number. We usually keep the most important wear parts in stock and can carry out many repairs directly on site.

We repair: - Defective hydraulic cylinders and units - Worn lips and seals - Damaged electrical systems and controls - Defective safety devices - Structural damage to the frame

Modernization

Sometimes modernizing existing systems is more economical than purchasing new ones. We provide objective advice and carry out modernization work that complies with current safety standards.

Spare parts and accessories

Thanks to our central warehouse, we can deliver common spare parts within 24 hours. We also procure original parts from various manufacturers.
