Conveyor and machinery technology

Almost all companies use materials handling equipment and machines. The most common materials handling equipment includes cranes, escalators, lifting platforms and car parking systems such as double parking systems.

However, companies also have mechanical systems such as power-operated gates and doors, not to mention the large number of other machines used in their operations. All this equipment and all these machines must undergo regular inspections by appropriately qualified persons or TÜV experts.

TÜV Rheinland help operators of materials handling equipment and machinery ensure that they adhere to legal regulations. Only the safety and reliability found in (regularly) inspected systems enable many operators to optimally design economic work processes and guarantee the necessary safety levels for users. We therefore carry out our inspections in line with not only national regulations, but also with European and international standards.
