From Concept to Completion

Durham Lifting Testing Machines 110 Tonne Vertical Test Bed If you are looking for a customised testing solution for your equipment, our 110 tonne vertical

Are you in need of a reliable and efficient way to test bollards and subsea ploughs on site? Look no further than our 500 tonne test bed, designed to provide ease of mobilisation and robust testing capabilities.

One of the unique features of our test bed is its ability to pivot at varying angles, allowing for a wider range of testing scenarios. Additionally, the test bed can be used conventionally as a horizontal test bed in our facility, making it a versatile tool for testing a variety of equipment such as slings, hook blocks, and bespoke and specialised subsea equipment.

The lower capacity of our test bed also makes it ideal for more accurate load application for low capacity testing of below 100 tonnes. This precision ensures that your equipment is tested thoroughly and accurately.

Our test bed has a bed length of approximately 5.7 meters, with a ram stroke of 1.2 meters. It can be used to test equipment up to 2 meters wide, fitting inside the test bed with ease. The main beam construction has been designed specifically to allow it to apply a distributed load along a length of 3.8 meters.

Furthermore, the cylindrical pipe design of the main beam makes it the perfect equipment to test subsea ploughs. This allows for efficient and effective testing of your subsea ploughs, ensuring that they meet the necessary requirements for your project.

In conclusion, our 500 tonne test bed is the ultimate solution to testing bollards and subsea ploughs. Its design allows for ease of mobilisation, versatility, and precision testing capabilities. Contact us today to learn more about how our test bed can meet your equipment testing needs.

Durham Lifting’s 3000 tonne test bed is a modular test machine that is capable of carrying out both compression and tension tests. This impressive machine can be reconfigured to carry out a wide range of tests, from testing link plates, slings, chains, and delta plates, to sheaves, trunnions, and many other types of equipment.

Are you are looking for a reliable and capable test machine for your destructive and static testing needs? Look no further than the Avery H2 test machine. With a capacity of up to 1120 tonnes for destruction testing and up to 1250 tonnes for static tensile and compressive testing, this machine is built to handle even the toughest of testing challenges.
