OSHA 1910.212(a)(2) requires these guards to be “affixed to the machine where possible." [1] Specifics for the type and construction of the guard are determined by the proximity of the guard to the hazard, and the type of hazard. Point of Operation Guarding refers to guarding the area of the machine where the work is performed.
A machinery's emergency stop control is considered a complementary protective measure [16] because it is intended to complement the primary safeguarding measures like fixed guards, movable interlocked guards or safeguarding devices. The primary safeguarding measures prevent injury automatically, either by enforcing distance between a hazard and ...
Any machine safety device should be designed and built to the highest safety standards defined for machinery safety, EN 13849-1 Category 4, and meet the control reliability requirements of ANSI B11.19 [9] and OSHA 1910.217. Original equipment manufacturers (OEM's) often consider point-of-operation safety to be the user's responsibility. The ...
The use of engineering control approaches to reduce noise at the source is preferred and can be accomplished by several means, including: using quieter tools, using vibration isolation or dampers on machinery, and disrupting the noise path by using barriers or sound insulation around the equipment [23] [24]
By reducing the need for physical guards and barriers, light curtains can increase the maintainability of the equipment they are guarding. The operability and efficiency of machinery can also be improved by the use of light curtains by, for example, allowing easier access for semi-automatic procedures.
ISO 13849 is a safety standard which applies to parts of machinery control systems that are assigned to providing safety functions (called safety-related parts of a control system). [1] The standard is one of a group of sector-specific functional safety standards that were created to tailor the generic system reliability approaches, e.g., IEC ...
