Why Legacy Machines Require Specialized Guarding
Older machines typically do not meet current OSHA or ANSI safety standards. They often lack basic safeguarding elements such as interlocked doors, presence-sensing devices, or fixed barriers. These outdated systems pose a significant challenge when rolling out corporate-level risk reduction programs across various facilities. PowerSafe’s process begins with a comprehensive risk assessment, mapping out hazard exposure and prioritizing solutions that align with your production goals and safety KPIs.
