Having determined that the crane was being operated within the design limits, the challenge was to determine which component within the transmission system had failed and why. Most of the damage caused was the result of an over-speed when the forklift went into free fall, and therefore a consequence of the initial failure.<\/p><p>A detailed metallurgical examination was performed, which established that the coupling, which had been replaced 2 years prior to the failure, was the component which failed first and that the brake and gearbox were consequential failures. Furthermore, Hawkins was able to recommend changes to the transmission system design that could improve safety and avoid the item being lifted from being dropped, should a transmission system failure occur again in the future.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-480d5ccc blue_btn elementor-widget__width-initial elementor-widget
