Reduced oscillation.

Improved precision.

The Demag V-type girder – less is more.

The revolutionary architecture of the Demag V-type girder provides greater load handling efficiency. Thanks to tapered diaphragm joints, the oscillation characteristics are reduced by up to 30 %. That cuts cycle times, boosts load handling rates and ensures improved precision in handling operations – above all in the upper load capacity range. This means that heavy loads can also be positioned even faster and more precisely without the need for electronic control systems.

The South African Institute of Materials Handling

Sample

The South African Institute of Materials Handling (SAIMH) is a Non-Profit organisation set up with an objective to encourage the transfer of knowledge associated within the fields of Bulk Materials Handling (conveyors, stacker, reclaimers, tipplers, train loading systems, etc.) through a combination of seminars and networking sessions.

The SAIMH is made up of professional engineers, each practising their trade in a variety of organisations who volunteer their time to execute the SAIMH’s objective. The main aim is thus to promote the advancement of the art, science, theory and practice of the Bulk Materials Handling principles and techniques.

ENDORSER OF “BULK HANDLING TODAY”

LIFTING EQUIPMENT ENGINEERING ASSOCIATION OF SA

LEEASA, formed in 2003, is a division of the Chamber of Engineering Technology (COET), a non-profit organisation. The association’s objectives include, but are not limited to: the transfer of knowledge and training within the field of the Lifting Industry, to improve safety, promote the use of standards and to promote Professional and Ethical practices.

I

t is represented on the Engineering Council of South Africa (ECSA) and a number of ECSA committees as well as on various task teams at the South African Bureau of Standards (SABS).

What’s in it for you:

As an Individual member who is registered as a Lifting Machinery Inspector (LMI), you may qualify for any concessionary fee granted by ECSA (this could save you over R1 000 a year).

ECSA registered COET / LEEASA members are awarded one Continuing Professional Development (CPD) credit in category

3 each year. CPD is an ECSA requirement to retain registration.

Members obtain a discount on training and seminars validated by the association, especially useful in earning ECSA CPD credits.

Members benefit from the collective power of a recognised and established association and collective co-ordination in dealing with authorities in policy making and matters concerning the industry.
