Working with machinery can be hazardous, but using proper guards on those machines can help prevent accidents and injuries on the job. Sit down with your employees with this Machine Guard Safety Video and help teach them the importance of using the guards on their saws, machines, and other tools.
This comprehensive video training course offers in depth information on using various types of machine guards, how they are used, how they work, and why they are so important.
This Machine Guard Training Covers Several Key Areas:
-
- How many accidents or injuries occur each year when it comes to machine related incidents? (Answer, more than 15,000 a good portion of which could have been prevented if proper machine guarding was in place)
- What are the hazards associated with NOT using machine guards? (Amputations, lacerations, crushing injuries, as well as fatalities)
- What specific items do machine guard keep you safe from? (sparks, flying particles, kickbacks, and more)
- What is “articulated motion” and why is it dangerous when operating a machine?
What three areas of a machine can create potential hazards?
-
-
- Within the “drive train” which is the moving part that powers the machine
- At the machines “perimeter” which is the area around the machine where a worker could be injured by things like flying debris and swinging parts
- At the “point of operation” which is where the machine’s mechanical energy is used to move, cut, bend or process the material
-
What are the different types of machine guards used?
-
- Fixed guards (the oldest and simplest type of guards which include wire cages, plastic shields, metal covers, etc)
- Interlock guards (often use an electronic sensor that will not allow a machine to operate unless the guard is in position)
- Light curtains (Uses beams of light to create an invisible barrier around the machine which prevents the machine from being used if the light curtain is broken)
- Pressure- Sensing guards (for example, pressure sensitive mats which prevents the machine from operating if there is weight on the mat)
- Restrain and pull-back devices (these prevent a worker from being able to reach the point of operation of the machine)
- Can machine guards prevent all accidents? The answer is “no.” The key taught in this training is that no machine guard is full proof, and that is why safety work practices must be followed at all times IN ADDITION TO any machine guarding.
