Stevens Industrial Solutions keeps overhead and gantry cranes, forklifts, and rigging in service across Erie and the surrounding industrial corridor. We do the work, and we leave you a logbook an inspector can follow.
Or write straight to stevensindustrialerie@gmail.com
Each job ends the same way: the equipment is back in service, tagged, and written into your records. No report, no invoice.
Your plant's inspection program stays yours. We build our findings so they drop straight into it — same language, same references, same intervals.
| Reference | Covers | Where it shows up in our work |
|---|---|---|
| OSHA 29 CFR 1910.179 | Overhead and gantry cranes | Inspection intervals, load testing of new and altered cranes, clearances, rated load marking |
| OSHA 29 CFR 1910.178 | Powered industrial trucks | Forklift operator training, evaluation, and refresher scheduling |
| OSHA 29 CFR 1910.184 | Slings | Sling inspection and removal-from-service decisions |
| ASME B30.2 | Overhead and gantry cranes | Crane inspection criteria, frequent and periodic checks, testing after alteration |
| ASME B30.9 / B30.26 | Slings · rigging hardware | Sling and hardware inspection, marking, and rejection criteria |
| ASME B30.10 | Hooks | Hook inspection and deformation limits |
| ASME B30.20 | Below-the-hook lifting devices | Device inspection, marking, and proof load requirements |
| Licensing & insurance | Registration, permits, and coverage | Certificates of insurance and licensing documentation provided on request |
The references above are the standards our work is measured against. Project-specific requirements follow your own inspection program, the equipment manufacturer's instructions, and the rules of the site.
The sequence matters: nobody plans a lift before someone has stood under the runway and read the existing tags.
Crane class and duty, hook height, rail condition, existing tags and log entries, and how the crane is actually used on a bad day.
Lift plan and rigging plan, load path and lift points, clearances, and the outage window that costs you the least production.
Installation and alignment, function and limit checks, load test where required. Deficiencies written up line by line, with photos.
Inspection tag on the crane, entries in your logbook, and a report your EHS lead, insurer, or OSHA inspector can follow without a phone call.
Stevens Industrial Solutions was founded in 2017 and works out of 1903 West 8th Street on Erie's west side. Our customers are the plants, mills, machine shops, warehouses, and contractors that run overhead cranes every day — the ones who need a lift that is documented, not just done.
We stay small on purpose. The people who survey your crane are the people who test it, write it up, and answer the phone when your maintenance lead has a question about the report.
Tell us the crane type, capacity, and when it is free — or how many operators need certification. We will come back with a date and a scope.
Bring us an existing crane with no paperwork and we will start the file from scratch — that is a normal Tuesday here.
