MOT - Off-road
Forklift trucks, tractors, construction machinery, container handlers or specialised vehicles: inspecting off-road equipment requires robust equipment that is suitably sized and can be deployed at the site of use.
Inspecting machinery not intended for use on public roads
Forklift trucks, tractors, industrial vehicles, container handlers, construction machinery and specialised vehicles, including armoured vehicles: this equipment shares one characteristic – it is designed for harsh operating conditions and does not typically appear at a conventional testing centre.
Our teams design robust equipment for professionals in the sector — manufacturers, operators and maintenance providers — which can be used individually or integrated into a production line, and are engineered to meet the safety standards required by these machines.
Extraordinary weights and dimensions
High axle loads, wide track widths, large tyres: the design of the measuring stations is verified against the actual vehicles received, rather than against a theoretical category.
A costly shutdown
A machine that is out of action means a construction site or operation is held up. The speed of inspection and the availability of equipment are more important than in a high-volume operation.
Sites that are sometimes remote
When the vehicle cannot move, the control equipment must be able to do so. Mobile configurations meet this need.
Three types of testing, under challenging conditions
Emissions, lighting and suspension: the requirements are the same as for a road vehicle, but the operating conditions make all the difference. Dust, vibrations, temperature fluctuations and difficult access to measurement points mean that equipment must be built to last.
On-board diagnostics complete the package on newer machines, whose electronics are similar to those of road vehicles.

A requirement to be assessed on a case-by-case basis
Off-road machinery covers a wide range of scenarios depending on the sector, and the inspection requirements applicable to it vary according to its category, intended use and the country in which it is operated.
Rather than proposing a standard configuration, our teams start with your fleet: the type of machinery, weights, operating locations and downtime constraints. This determines the appropriate equipment, whether fixed or mobile.
