A crane AMC in Kota, Bundi, Baran or Jhalawar is a yearly service plan in which an engineer checks your EOT crane, gantry crane or hoist on fixed dates, fixes small faults early and keeps written records for audits. R K Engineering Works, Jaipur, gives crane AMC across the Hadoti region for cranes of any make, with breakdown support and a 125% load test after major repairs.

This guide is for plant heads and maintenance teams in Kota, Bundi, Baran and Jhalawar. It explains what a good crane AMC covers, how often visits should happen, how to compare plans, and what records you should get. We have built and serviced cranes from VKI Area, Jaipur, since 1998, and we follow ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 45001 systems.
Why plants in Kota and Hadoti need a planned crane AMC
Many plants call a mechanic only when the crane stops. That is the most costly way to run a crane. A brake that slips, a rope with broken wires or a limit switch that does not cut off can cause a serious accident before it causes a breakdown.
Hadoti plants also face heat and dust. Kota stone cutting, cement, chemical and fertiliser units, power and process plants all put extra load on motors, panels and brakes. Summer heat dries grease and heats panels. Fine dust gets into contactors and limit switches. A planned AMC finds these problems while they are still small.
- Fewer stoppages, because worn parts are changed on a plan.
- Safer lifting, because brakes, hooks, ropes and limits are checked every visit.
- Ready records for safety audits and factory inspections.
- Longer crane life, because the crane is run within its duty class.
What a good crane AMC in Kota should cover
Ask for a written check plan before you sign. The table below shows the main items and why each one matters.
| Area | What is checked | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Hoist brake | Brake lining, air gap, holding test | Stops the load from slipping |
| Wire rope and drum | Broken wires, wear, lubrication, rope end fixing | Rope failure is a top cause of dropped loads |
| Hook and bottom block | Hook opening, safety latch, sheaves, bearings | A stretched hook must be replaced |
| Limit switches | Hoist upper and lower limits, travel limits | Prevents over-hoisting and end collisions |
| Gearbox | Oil level, leaks, noise, mounting bolts | Gearbox failure stops the whole crane |
| Long and cross travel | Wheels, rails, end buffers, alignment | Poor alignment wears wheels and rails |
| Electrical panel | Contactors, overload relays, earthing, VFD | Dust and heat cause most panel faults |
| Pendant or radio remote | Push buttons, emergency stop, cable | The operator must be able to stop the crane |
| Structure | Girder, end carriage, bolted joints | Cracks and loose bolts must be found early |
| Records | Visit report, parts changed, next actions | Needed for audits and planning |
For new cranes, the same points are covered in our 125% load test guide. A load test is repeated after a major repair, such as a new hoist or a girder repair.
How often should an AMC engineer visit?
Visit frequency should follow how hard the crane works. IS 3177 groups crane mechanisms by duty class, from light use to very heavy, continuous use. A crane in a busy production bay needs more frequent checks than a crane used only for maintenance lifts.
- Light use (maintenance and occasional lifts): fewer planned visits in a year.
- Regular production use: visits at fixed short intervals, plus a full check once a year.
- Heavy use (long shifts, loads close to rated load): the most frequent visits, with extra checks on brakes and ropes.
If you are not sure of your duty class, read our EOT crane duty class guide. Our engineer confirms it at the first survey.
Comprehensive or non-comprehensive AMC: how to choose
There are two common types of crane AMC. Pick the one that matches how your plant buys spares and how much risk you want to carry.
| Point | Non-comprehensive AMC | Comprehensive AMC |
|---|---|---|
| Planned visits and checks | Included | Included |
| Breakdown visits | Included | Included |
| Spare parts | Paid separately when needed | Listed parts included as per contract |
| Best for | Plants that keep their own spares | Plants that want fewer separate bills |
| Records and reports | Included | Included |
Whichever type you pick, the contract should list the cranes, the check plan, the visit schedule, the response process for breakdowns and the reports you will get.
How to start a crane AMC in Kota, Bundi, Baran or Jhalawar
- Share the crane list: type, capacity, span, make and year for each crane.
- First survey: our engineer inspects each crane and notes worn parts and safety gaps.
- Condition report: you get a written report with urgent and planned actions.
- Check plan and schedule: visit dates are set from duty class and hours of use.
- Regular visits and reports: every visit ends with a signed report.
- Upgrade advice: where a crane is too old to keep safe, we suggest modernisation steps.
Service area in the Hadoti region
We cover Kota city and its RIICO areas, Bundi, Baran, Jhalawar, Ramganj Mandi, Rawatbhata and Chhabra, as well as nearby Sawai Madhopur and Tonk. New EOT cranes for Kota plants are covered in our EOT crane manufacturer Kota guide, and our main crane AMC page is EOT crane AMC.
Frequently asked questions
What does a crane AMC in Kota include?
A crane AMC in Kota includes planned visits, checks on the hoist, brakes, wire rope, hook, limit switches, panel and long travel, a written visit report, and breakdown support. A load test at 125% is done after major repairs.
Do you give AMC for cranes made by other companies?
Yes. We inspect, service and upgrade EOT cranes, gantry cranes and hoists of any make in Kota, Bundi, Baran and Jhalawar.
How often should an EOT crane be checked?
It depends on the duty class and hours of use. Busy cranes in long shifts need more frequent visits than cranes used a few times a day. We fix the visit plan after the first survey.
Can an old crane be made safe under an AMC?
Often yes. If a part is worn out we tell you in the report and suggest a repair or a modernisation step, such as a new hoist, VFD panel or radio remote.
