MACHINE SAFEGUARDING Machine Safeguarding Basics Machine Safeguarding Methods
Introduction • Crushed hands and arms, severed fingers, blindness - the list of possible machinery-related injuries is as long as it is horrifying. • There seems to be as many hazards created by moving machine parts as there are types of machines. • Therefore, safeguards are essential for protecting workers from needless and preventable injuries. © 2003 Seton Identification Products
Introduction • Any machine part, function, or process which may cause injury must be safeguarded. • Where the operation of a machine or accidental contact with it can injure the operator or others in the vicinity, the hazard must be either controlled or eliminated. © 2003 Seton Identification Products
Introduction • The point of operation is the point where work is performed on the material, such as cutting, shaping, boring, or forming of stock • Any area containing components of a power transmission mechanical system which transmits energy to the machine part performing the work. © 2003 Seton Identification Products
Introduction • Dangerous moving parts that need safeguarding are located in the three basic areas described below: • The point of operation is the point where work is performed on the material, such as cutting, shaping, boring, or forming of stock • These components include flywheels, pulleys, belts, connecting rods, couplings, cams, spindles, chains, cranks, and gears • All other moving parts of the machine which move while the machine is working. © 2003 Seton Identification Products
Introduction • These components include flywheels, pulleys, belts, connecting rods, couplings, cams, spindles, chains, cranks, and gears • All other moving parts of the machine which move while the machine is working. • These can include reciprocating, rotating, and transverse moving parts, as well as feed mechanisms and auxiliary parts. © 2003 Seton Identification Products
Objectives • At the end of this Machinery Safeguarding module, you should be able to: • Identify and define types of mechanical motions and actions along with where mechanical hazards occur • Identify the requirements for safeguarding • Understand how the various methods of machine guarding protect employees. © 2003 Seton Identification Products
Machine Safeguarding Basics • The three topics of the Basics of Machine Safeguarding section are listed to the left. • This section of the Machine Safeguarding module includes: • Examines the six minimal requirements for safeguards • Discusses in detail the basic types of hazardous mechanical motions and actions • Briefly discusses the requirements for operator training. © 2003 Seton Identification Products
Machine Safeguarding Requirements • In order to protect workers against mechanical hazards, safeguards must meet the minimum general requirements listed below. • Prevent Contact • Secure • Protect from Falling Objects • Create No New Hazard • Create No Interference • Allow Safe Lubrication © 2003 Seton Identification Products
Hazardous Mechanical Motions and Actions • A wide variety of basic mechanical motions and actions may present hazards to the worker. • Recognizing them is the first step toward protection from the danger they present. • The basic types of hazardous mechanical motions and actions are identified below. • Cutting Actions • Rotating (Including In-Running Nip Points) Motions • Shearing ActionsReciprocating Motions • Bending Actions • Transverse Motions • Punching Actions © 2003 Seton Identification Products
