Machine Guarding 101 By Rossi

Ashland Ohio Safety Council Hosts Guarding Class

Did you know that in addition to our #machinetoolrebuilds & repairs, we sell products that compliment manufacturing and other companies?  Yes. We are an #authorizedRockfordSytem distributor.  

Recently we have been very busy #guarding machines for several large and small companies.
Since there is an OSHA requirement for guarding, we thought that we would share it with you.

 The #OSHA requirment:  

Machine guarding. 1910.212(a)(1)
One or more methods of machine guarding shall be provided to protect the operator and other employees in the machine area from hazards such as those created by point of operation, ingoing nip points, rotating parts, flying chips , falling parts and sparks.  Is an important component to keeping your employees, visitors, & staff safe.  

We live in busy times and more often companies all tend to wait for something to force them into looking at their #safety #policies, but being pro-active & #guarding before an incident will  make all the difference.  

Rossi Machinery can offer you discounts on the guarding, guarding the machines one at a time, or all at once.  We work with our clients because we know that saving money will increase your bottom line, but sometimes we need to invest in precautionary equipment:

It only takes one accident to turn the company up side down!  

So join us tomorrow at the ASHLANDOHIOSAFETYCOUNCIL for a look at guarding. We promise to make it as painless as it can be!
