WHAT IS CONTAINER LIFTING EQUIPMENT?
Container lifting equipment refers to a number of tools and pieces of equipment that are used to move various sized containers, ranging from small catering containers all the way to large, industrial shipping containers.
Container lifting equipment is essential for the safe and efficient manoeuvre of containers across a wide range of industries, including shipping, logistics, and construction, but each typically makes use of the same range of lifting straps, cranes, and jacks.
Container Lifting equipment is designed to meet a specific set of safety and weight-bearing requirements for lifting standardised ISO Shipping containers. Moreover, the proper use of container lifting equipment is crucial for ensuring the secure handling of containers during transportation and storage.
WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF USING CONTAINER LIFTING EQUIPMENT?
Using container lifting equipment presents a number of benefits to workers across many different industries.
Most notably container lifting equipment significantly cuts down on the amount of time, cost, and effort required in the loading and unloading of goods. In relation to monetary cost, this applies both directly and indirectly as the improper handling of goods could potentially lead to damage to both goods and the property on which the goods are being transported.
Additionally, using container lifting equipment makes for much safer operations. Workers loading and unloading goods by hand can potentially lead to accidents if tackled with improper training. The use of cargo lifting equipment brings with it a much more robust set of procedures and operations that must be followed.
WHAT ARE THE SAFETY PRECAUTIONS THAT SHOULD BE FOLLOWED WHEN USING CONTAINER LIFTING EQUIPMENT?
Whilst each piece of machinery under the container lifting equipment umbrella will have its own list of specific safety precautions and needs that a worker must follow during use, there are a set of general safety precautions that should be observed to ensure the well-being of personnel and the integrity of the cargo, regardless of the machinery being used.
Most notably the personnel should ensure that they have received the correct training, and are actually certified to use the equipment in question. Beyond this, the equipment should be regularly inspected to ensure it is in working order, upon every use secure the equipment thoroughly and have sufficient knowledge of the load limit of the equipment.
By following the required safety precautions when using container lifting equipment, the risk of accidents, and property and equipment damage can be greatly reduced - ensuring safe and efficient operation.
