We conduct machine safety assessments, focusing on potential hazards and risks, to protect workers, minimize the risk of accidents and ensure compliance with a wide variety of local and international safety regulations. We offer risk assessments to analyze mechanical, electrical and ergonomic hazards, as well as safety function assessments, to ensure that safety features, such as emergency stop mechanisms, protective barriers, interlocks and other control systems are effectively designed and function properly. Our assessments include testing and validation of safety systems in real-time conditions as well as document review.
While machine safety assessments can be performed as corrective actions after incidents, accidents or near misses, it is safer, wiser, and more cost-effective to conduct them during installation or regular maintenance, typically:
- Before purchasing or installing new machines
- During the design and development phase
- When making modifications or upgrades
- When introducing new operational procedures
- During regular maintenance and safety audits
- To maintain or renew certifications
- When expanding into new markets or regions, to ensure continued regulatory compliance
