Book Description
This manual has been prepared as an aid to employers, employees, machine manufacturers, machine guard designers and fabricators, and all others with an interest in protecting workers against the hazards of moving machine parts. It identifies the major mechanical motions and the general principles of safeguarding them. Current applications of each technique are shown in accompanying illustrations of specific operations and machines. The methods described here may be transferred, with due care, to different machines with similar hazards. To determine whether or not safeguarding meets the requirements of the standard, any mechanical motion that threatens a worker's safety should not remain unguarded.

Safety with Machinery
Author: John RidleyPublisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1136367497
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 320
Book Description
John Ridley and Dick Pearce, both recognized specialists in machinery safety, guide the reader through the various standards, regulations and best practices relating to the safe design and use of machinery and show which standard is relevant for which type of machine. Safety with Machinery provides a basic grounding in machinery safety and covers safeguarding philosophy and strategy, typical hazards, risk assessment and reduction, guarding techniques, ergonomic considerations, safe use of equipment and plant layout. All types of safeguards are discussed – mechanical, interlocking, electrical / electronic / programmable, hydraulic, pneumatic. The new edition has been updated throughout in line with changes in regulations and standards. The section on electric, electronic and programmable safety systems has been expanded to reflect their increasing importance. The book now focuses on the harmonised standards (e.g. EN ISO 13849, IEC/EN 61131-2) which can be used by manufacturers to self-certify their machines for the European market without the need for third party examination, but also covers other relevant standards (e.g. IEC 62061). Many practical examples set the regulations in context and assist in the interpretation of the various standards. Safety with Machinery is essential reading for all engineers involved in machinery design and maintenance all over the world as every machine sold within or into the EU needs to conform to the harmonised standards. It also provides health and safety professionals, students and employee representatives, as well as certification bodies, health and safety inspectors and safety regulators with a comprehensive overview of machinery safety.

Ergonomic Checkpoints
Author: International Labour OfficePublisher: International Labour Organization
ISBN: 9221094421
Category : Human engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 302
Book Description
Prepared in collaboration with the International Ergonomics Association, this book presents a compilation of 128 illustrated ideas which identify practical and inexpensive solutions to ergonomic problems in the workplace. The checkpoints can be used either to check working conditions on the spot or at the design stage, and are suited to a wide variety of premises. Each checkpoint indicates an action, explains why it is necessary, gives advice on its implementation and other relevant information. Ergonomic issues covered include: materials storage and handling; hand tools; machine safety; improving workstation design; lighting; premises; control of hazardous substances; welfare facilities; and work organisation.
