Mechsafe principals have extensive experience in the design and verification of mechanical structures and equipment ranging from pressure vessels, cranes, trommels, process piping and storage tanks to rail wagons and sophisticated underfloor lifting systems for rolling stock and locomotives.
A key capability of Mechsafe is Safe Life Analysis. Our engineers have vast industry experience and access to cutting edge tools to assist in designing new equipment for reliable and safe operation during its design life cycle.
The goal of any industrial system is to achieve its defined function safely and economically. For a railway system this could be a level of rail traffic and for a waste treatment plant the quantity of processed waste in a given time. In either case a RAM analysis carried out by Mechsafe engineers will quantify the extent to which the productive assets working in the system allow achievement of its goal.
Mechsafe offers both engineering critical assessments and fitness-for-service assessments as part of the service range. Our principals have experience in both mining, offshore, and general structural applications, working to the latest editions of BS 7910 and API 579.
Using advanced 3D boundary element modelling techniques, Mechsafe is able to predict corrosion rates and design cathodic protection systems for offshore and harbour structures, buried pipelines and flat bottomed storage tanks. Accurate calculation of corrosion rates means that conservative estimates need not be made for critical equipment in fitness for service assessments.
Mechsafe engineers have many years of experience with the strain gauging and data logging of fixed and mobile plant for the mining, water, waste, railway and defence industries. We can provide a total solution that includes processing of the data through to calibrated FEA models including detailed design life cycle predictions.
Mechsafe offers a complete range of piping engineering services including piping class development, piping material and valve specification and selection, and pipe stress analysis.
Crane inspections are a legal requirement in accordance with the Western Australian government Occupational Safety and Health Regulations (1996) or the Mines Safety and Inspection Regulations (1995), depending on the worksite where the crane is being used.
