Machine and Equipment Safety Guarding

Match the following types of hazardous mechanical motion with their descriptions:

Rotating Motion = Smooth, slowly rotating shafts can grip clothing and force an arm or hand into a dangerous position Reciprocating Motion = Back and forth or up and down motion where a worker can be struck by or caught between moving and stationary parts Transverse Motion = Movement in a straight continuous line where a worker can be struck by or caught in pitch or shear points Fixed Guards = Provides a permanent barrier as a part of the machine

Match the following methods of machine safeguarding with their descriptions:

Interlocked Guards = Machine cannot cycle or start until the guard is back in place Adjustable Guards = Can be adjusted to facilitate different production operations Self-adjusting Guards = Moves according to the size of the stock entering the danger area Presence Sensing Devices = Uses systems of light for safety measures

Match the following devices used for machine safeguarding with their descriptions:

Pullback Devices = Primarily used on machines with stroking action Restraint Devices = Use cables or straps attached to the operator's hands and a fixed point Safety Tripwire Cables = Located around the perimeter of or near the danger area for safety purposes Two-Hand Control Devices = Require constant, concurrent pressure to activate the machine

Match the following safeguarding mechanisms with their descriptions:

Rotating Mechanism = Continuous circular motion that poses a hazard Cutting or Shearing Mechanism = Used to cut materials and can cause severe injuries if not properly guarded In Running Nip Points = Area where objects can get caught and pulled into the equipment Forming or Bending Mechanisms (Power Press) = Processes that involve shaping materials with high force Signup and view all the answers

Match the following machine safety responsibilities with their roles:

Management = Ensuring all machinery is properly guarded Supervisors = Training employees on specific guard rules and ensuring guards remain in place Employees = Reporting machine guard problems and not operating equipment without guards in place Miscellaneous Aids = Providing awareness barriers and protective shields Signup and view all the answers

Match the following hazardous mechanical motions with their characteristics:

Interlocked Guards = Automatically shuts off or disengages the hazardous motion when the guard is opened or removed Fixed Guards = Permanently attached to the machine and provides a barrier to protect from hazards Lock out Tag Out Procedures = Requires locking devices and employee training to prevent accidental machine start-up Protective Shields = Offers protection from flying particles, cutting oils, or coolants Signup and view all the answers
