If you’re in charge of maintaining your company’s manufacturing equipment and machinery, take a second to think about how much responsibility actually falls on your shoulders.

At Mazzella Companies, we have one of the few business units in the industry that is dedicated solely to the inspection of lifting and rigging equipment and more. Let us assist you in getting your company’s lifting and rigging inspection program in compliance.

In this Podcast, we’ll compare these two types of overhead crane controls and provide an explanation of how both work, as well as the advantages and disadvantages of both types of systems.

A single girder or double girder design will be one of the largest contributors to the complexity and overall cost of a new overhead crane system. In this article, we’ll discuss the advantages, disadvantages, and differences between single girder and double girder bridge crane systems. You’ll want to give careful consideration to the bridge design of your overhead crane system to make sure that you understand the requirements of the lifting task and the environment where the crane will be operating.

At Progressive Crane, we have over 40 years of experience engineering, manufacturing, and installing overhead crane systems.

That’s why we’ve put together this list of the best overhead crane manufacturing companies to help you get the best bang for your buck.

Adding inspection tags or markings to rigging equipment is a trend that’s been growing in popularity with business owners and safety personnel in production and manufacturing environments across the country.

We wanted to provide an inspector’s perspective on this practice that is not currently required by any OSHA or ASME standards.

In this episode, I sit down with Jon Schryver, a safety Consultant with Ultra-Safe Inc., and Terry Pipik, the Director of Sales with Mazzella Lifting Technologies. 

In this Podcast we cover:

- The Importance of wearing Personal Fall Protection correctly

- Who owns the responsibility of a Fall Protection Program

- How it’s important to look at the manufacturers specifications and instructions, not just what the service class is.

And more!
