MacGregor Cell guide systems on deck and in the hold
MacGregor deck and hold cell guides improve stack weights, container-carrying capacity and handling and the overall efficiency of a cargo handling system. They are an essential part of this system, which also includes hatch covers, lashing bridges, container stanchions, and loose and fixed container fittings on deck and in the holds.

Common failures & inspection points
Visual inspection for breaks, deformation, corrosion; DNV 5-year rule: sample and laboratory test; annual inspection of full length if damage indicators present → replacement if necessary
Rocking test (measure axial play); visual inspection: grease traces under bearing (dry = wear risk); take grease samples for ferrography analysis (wear particle monitoring: lamella particles = bearing damage)
Visual inspection for oil leaks at valves, cylinders, hoses; hydraulic oil samples for analysis (water content, wear metals); pressure test and control valve functional test; OnWatch Scout IoT condition monitoring optionally available
Surface cracks and deformation (visual inspection); tensile test to UNE-EN ISO 6892-1:2010; 'safety-related' components: high inspection level before commissioning and during service life
Alle 5 Jahre Lasttest erforderlich (DNV-Anforderung); Proof-Load-Test: max. 110% der Maximallast (OSHA/ASME B30.2.0-1967); Funktionsprüfung aller Positionen unter Wasser/Kalibriergewichten; DNV-Surveyor anwesend
Endschalter (Heben/Senken Grenzen); Überlaststoppfunktion; Druckregelventile (Druckprobe); Redundanz-Prüfung der Bremsen
