Handling with care

By September 24, 2015 10:44 am IST

A comprehensive approach to create a safe manufacturing environment
 Material handling is an integral part of any manufacturing facility. However, creating a safe operating environment depends to a large extent on the material handling process involved. Not abiding by safety rules, ignorance to safety aspects and lack of awareness on safety features are some of the major factors that make a material handling process vulnerable to mishaps. Such mishaps can cost huge in terms of man, materials, machines and production downtime.
Commenting on the importance of safety in material handling, Adarsh Hegde, GM – Sales and Marketing, Demag – Terex Material Handling and Port Solutions said, “Material handling is one of the prime causes of work-related injuries and associated costs worldwide. The results of material handling related accidents can really be catastrophic. Hence, safety must always be the primary consideration while selection of material handling equipment or methods.”
“All of ElectroMech’s cranes come equipped as a standard with redundant safety electric limit switches as well as mechanical barriers to ensure that the hook path does not stray dangerously out of the intended work envelope,” assures Tushar Mehendale, Managing Director, ElectroMech. The company has several electrical interlock systems hardwired in its circuitry which prevent an operator from running the crane in an unsafe manner even if he wishes to do so.
