How to avoid punch injury accidents

How to avoid punch injury accidents

Use hand safety tools

●Use hand safety tools to avoid accidents caused by unreasonable mold design and sudden equipment failure. Common safety tools are elastic tongs, special tongs, magnetic suction cups, cymbals, pliers, hooks, etc.

●Take protective measures against the mold.

●Protective measures for the mold include providing a shield around the mold and improving the mold structure.

●Such as reducing the dangerous area of the mold, expanding the safety space; setting the mechanical discharge device, under the premise of not affecting the strength of the mold and the quality of the product, the original single-process mold for manual feeding is improved to improve safety.

●Plus safety guards.

●It is also an effective measure to realize the safety of stamping work under the current conditions by installing safety guards on stamping equipment and molds or by using hand tools with low labor intensity and convenient and flexible use. Such as the use of hand tools, mold shields, mechanical access devices, two-button switches, mechanical handles, push and hand device, photoelectric automatic protection devices. There are many types of protective devices for stamping equipment, which is classified into a mechanical, button, photoelectric, and inductive according to the structure.

●The mechanical protection device has a simple structure and is convenient to manufacture, but has a large interference to the operation, and the operator does not like to use it, and the application is relatively small.

●The photoelectric device is a combination of a photoelectric switch and a mechanical device. When the operator's hand enters the mold area, the light beam is blocked and an electrical signal is emitted, thereby achieving the purpose of stopping the slider and preventing the downward movement. Keep the operator safe. The photoelectric protection device has two kinds of infrared photoelectric protection devices and incandescent photoelectric protection devices. Since the photoelectric protection device is convenient to use and has no interference to the operation, it is widely used.

●The contact protection device uses the contact rod as a sensing element to control the movement of the slider, and there are two types of normally open and normally closed. The protection device has the advantages of simple structure, low production cost, convenient operation, and several sets of devices can be used in series while the worker is working. It is suitable for presses with friction clutches and modified rigid clutch presses.

●Mechanization and automation.

●Safety guard technical description.

●Safety guards are generally divided into two types: on-beam and reflective.
