The right load for your application, agreed before testing
The test bed applies a tensile force along the secured specimen. Its capacity supports consideration of high-load testing tasks; suitability also depends on specimen dimensions, connections and the available fixtures.
To the best of Lifting.kz’s knowledge, this is the only 500 tonne test bed in Kazakhstan.
500 tonnes describes the test bed’s capacity. It is not the working load limit of every item fitted to it: the force for each specimen is defined in its agreed test programme.
Items you can submit for assessment
Synthetic slings
Specify the sling type, WLL, length and purpose of the test. The videos show synthetic specimens installed in the horizontal working area.
Connections and lifting accessories
Send a drawing or photographs of the connections. We review fixture compatibility, the proposed load path and required test accessories before agreeing the work.
Test quality starts with proper preparation
Industrial customers need clear specimen identification, suitable connections and an agreed loading programme. The supplied photographs show the load frame, protective guarding, connection fixtures and a Rinstrum R420 digital indicator on the control panel. Measurement and documentation requirements are agreed for your application.

How to arrange a test
Send the item details
Item type, dimensions, documented WLL or breaking force, connection photographs and number of specimens.
Agree the programme
Test objective, force, hold time, acceptance criteria, client attendance and required documentation.
Deliver the sample to the facility
We confirm installation suitability, preparation requirements and the acceptance process. Transport arrangements are agreed in advance.
Receive the agreed test results
Force recording, photographs, video and the scope of the issued documents are defined by the test programme.
Photographs of the test bed and specimens
Six actual photographs, from the overall structure to the control panel and a wire rope after testing. Select an image to inspect the details.
Questions before testing
Can any item be tested at 500 tonnes?
No. 500 tonnes is the maximum test bed force specified by Lifting.kz. Test suitability depends on the item, its connections and dimensions, available fixtures and the agreed programme.
How does a proof load test differ from a break test?
A proof load test applies a pre-agreed force and assesses the specimen against defined criteria. A break test examines behaviour at failure and requires a separate specimen. The objective and criteria must be agreed before testing.
What information should I send with an enquiry?
Send the item specification, dimensions, material, working load limit or declared breaking force, connection details and client requirements. If documents are unavailable, start with photographs and a description of the task.
Is a certificate issued after testing?
Agree the required document, its contents and any requirements for the testing provider before placing the order. A photograph or video recording is not itself a certificate of conformity.
Can we send samples from another city?
We accept enquiries from Aktau, Atyrau, Oral (Uralsk), Almaty, Astana, Kyzylorda and other cities across Kazakhstan. Sample acceptance, packing, delivery and return arrangements are agreed in advance.
How do we obtain a price and schedule?
The quotation and schedule depend on the item, programme, fixtures and number of specimens. Send the initial details for an individual proposal; no fixed public price list is displayed.
We work with corporate customers in energy, construction and the marine sector. Lifting.kz supplies high-quality lifting equipment for demanding industrial applications, selecting equipment for the required working load and operating conditions. Our work includes inspection, supply and production solutions for Kazakhstan’s oil and gas infrastructure.
