Tasks and features of the work of the slinger. Tasks and features of the work of a slinger We studied: Training of galvanizers

At factories, enterprises, construction sites, in the field of transport services, wherever there is movement, loading, unloading of oversized cargo, slingers are needed. They help to carry out operations with cargo that the equipment cannot independently carry out.

Slinger - who is it

Slingers carry out the attachment of the load to the slings - ropes or steel ropes, for loops or hooks located on them, or by tying. Next, the slings are already put on the hook of a crane or other lifting mechanism. The slinger also helps the driver, who controls the equipment, who should receive a signal about the moment of fixing the load, the possibility of further manipulations with it.

Responsibilities of the profession

From the moment the hook is lowered to the place of attachment to the end point of the movement of the load, a whole chain of actions takes place, on the professional performance of which not only the safety of material values, but also human life depends. The slinger must be able to:

  • Prepare the area for unloading. The place must be cleared, palletized as needed, container placement geometry planned.
  • Check cargo. This includes determining the mass for the selection of the necessary slings, the reliability of the fastening loops with regards to concrete structures, the integrity of the package, the pallet.
  • Choose material for fixation. Select chains, ropes or cable according to suitability for the purpose of work and quality.
  • Fix the straps correctly. They should not be twisted, have a destructive effect on the load, be able to slip, break off.
  • Help in correcting the actions of the crane operator or the operator of lifting equipment when the load is moving. To do this, the slinger must know the system of warning signs.
  • Carry out correct and safe uncoupling.

Rank categories

There are five categories of slingers, from 2 to 6. Each of them is assigned to a specialist with a certain level of knowledge and skills. The highest - 6th category, representing the most qualified employees, has the highest wage billing. This does not mean that the 2nd category of the profession is less in demand.

It is more profitable for enterprises working with small, uncomplicated loads to hire a low-category slinger who will also perform his work with high quality.

Rank Requirements

Duties of slingers of the 2nd category:

  • Fastening to slings, linking simple loads up to 5 tons, as well as scaffolding no more than 3 meters long;
  • Accompaniment, control of cargo during movement, its stowage;
  • Unhooking the slings after lowering the weight;
  • Interaction with the crane operator using special signals;
  • Control of the expiration dates of the slings.

Necessary basic knowledge of the profession:

  • Determining the mass of cargo by eye;
  • Calculation of attachment points to slings;
  • Algorithm of actions during slinging;
  • What slings, where to use (ropes, cables, chains);
  • Calculation of the load on the sling, crane boom.
  • Safety precautions at hazardous enterprises.
  • Providing first aid.

Duties of specialists of the 3rd category to all of the above, plus:

  • Tolerance to weights from 5 to 25 tons;
  • Operations with wood up to 6 meters long;
  • Splicing of cargo by knotting;
  • Loading of gravity on mechanisms and scaffolds.

You need to know more:

  • How to calculate the center of gravity;
  • Rules for stowage of medium-sized cargoes;
  • The specifics of the functioning of the mechanisms for capture;
  • Methods of fastening slings and transportation in different conditions.

Duties of slingers of the 4th category professions are complemented by work:

  • With masses over 25 tons;
  • Forest length over 6 meters;
  • Goods requiring careful handling.

IN duties of specialists of the 5th category In addition to all of the above, it includes:

  • Full organization of the technical process for loading, unloading and moving;
  • Handling complex cargoes up to 50 tons;
  • Skills in handling crane equipment and other similar equipment.

IN duties of specialists of the 6th category includes a complete list of all knowledge and skills, plus access to masses over 50 tons.

The subtleties of the profession

The profession of a slinger is not an easy one. In addition to the knowledge that needs to be obtained, not every person can provide services in this area due to inconsistencies in physical data. From this point of view, the qualities that a specialist should possess are as follows:

  • Physical strength. Chains, cables - heavy inventory. They need to be lifted, fastened, holding on weight.
  • Excellent eye gauge. The slinger needs to be able to approximately accurately determine the mass of the load; calculation in a different way is not always available.
  • Movement coordination. It is necessary to fix the gravity, climbing onto platforms, buildings, other structures - the plane of movement can be cluttered with various objects.
  • Sociability. The slinger must constantly communicate with the operators of lifting devices, with other slingers for the constant transmission of data on the condition of the tying of the load.
  • Reaction speed. A professional must be able to make decisions quickly. Working with large tonnage is dangerous. There may be unforeseen situations.
  • Responsibility, care. Mistakes of an employee of the profession often lead to irreparable consequences.

How slingers are trained and certified

There are two ways to get the profession of a slinger: in special training centers and remotely. The course of study is the more extensive, the higher the rank of a slinger a person wants to receive. The program has the following content:

  • Information about the crane installations: classification, device and safety of operation, indexing, parameters.
  • Security equipment.
  • Load-handling devices, container.
  • Fastening the ends of steel cables in the main ways.
  • Criteria for rejection of containers and devices during inspection.
  • Skills for organizing safe operations using cranes.
  • Carrying out work with crane equipment.
  • Types of cargo, slinging in various ways.
  • Skills in unloading, loading and warehousing operations.
  • Organization of work places for loading equipment.
  • Assembly and construction works.
  • General safety rules and safety when working at the enterprise.
  • Fundamentals of first aid.

Certification for obtaining a specialty involves passing exams at the end of the passage of the material. Based on the results, a certificate of a specialist in the profession and a protocol of the commission for participants who have passed certification are issued.
