Guarding
-
Are Light Curtains, Laser Scanners or ESPE of any type being used as machine guarding?
-
Is there current mechanical guarding in place on machinery?
-
Is guarding ZERO ACCESS i.e. sufficient to prevent access to the moving parts?
-
Describe what additional controls are in place, if any?
-
Are the gaps adequate to prevent accidental access to dangerous moving parts?
-
Describe what additional controls are in place, if any?
-
Are there any unguarded nip points?
-
Describe what additional controls are in place, if any?
-
Is a specialist tool required to remove existing guarding?
-
Is the tool stored away from machinery?
-
Is there a permit system in place prior to the removal of guarding?
-
Are all electrical fixtures covered?
-
Is there a need for integrated guarding (eg two handed operation due to exposed dangerous components while in use)?
-
Describe what complementary safety controls are in place?
-
Are AS6157 compliant walkways,platforms and guard rails used to prevent access to dangerous parts?
-
Details of possible improvements according to AS6157.
-
Is there suitable access for servicing eg removable section to service, maintenance, removable panels to allow access to adjust bolts etc?
-
Are guards secured eg mounting bolts tightened, grills secured?
-
Are safety isolation lock out devices (LOTO) fitted and tested as operational?
