Power press hazards may be both physical, like flying debris, and operational, including crushing and amputation at the "point of operation". According to OSHA, about half of all injuries from these machines result in an amputation.
A pre-shift inspection is a routine check of a machine and its safety devices before you begin work. It is vital because it helps you recognize possible hazards, like damage or malfunctions, that could lead to an accident.
The "point of operation" is the area where the machine performs its work, like cutting, shaping, and forming. This is considered the most dangerous area on the machine, as it's where the most serious risks, including crushing, amputation, and even death, can take place.
Typical safety controls cover physical guards, including barrier and die enclosure guards, and presence-sensing devices, like "light curtains". The press may also be equipped with an easily accessible Red Stop Button and two-hand controls.
Lockout/Tagout, or LOTO, is a critical safety procedure that prevents machines from accidentally activating during maintenance or repairs. It requires workers to shut down all energy sources and apply a lock and tag to ensure the equipment cannot be turned back on.
