Non-Destructive Evaluation

Cookes Test Technicians and Engineers are experts in wire and fibre rope and have an in-depth understanding of all aspects of rope management, including Statutory Rope Examination and Inspection. We can detect and accurately measure a ropes loss of metallic cross-sectional area (LMA). This allows us to give customers information vital to deciding whether a rope is fit for continued use, needs further testing, or should be retired.
