Machining
CNC technology continues to advance and make increasingly intricate products more efficiently. Alongside this is a continual advancement in CNC machinery safety. The widespread adoption of solenoid locking guard switches, safe-torque-off drives and intelligent controls (to name a few) have all enhanced workplace safety. As CNC technology has become more widely utilised, the technology has become cheaper to produce. This has led to even more widespread adoption, going beyond milling and turning. CNC technology can now be found in sawing, drilling, cutting and even bending applications.
There are numerous C-type standards which provide detailed industry best practices. However, navigating the abundance of information and joining the dots between requirements can be difficult. Cenheard has a team of dedicated engineers and safety professionals who work with standards day-in-day-out. Our knowledge and expertise in joining the dots can give peace of mind, ensuring that all bases have been covered.
Welding & flame cutting
Fume control is essential in ensuring no long-term health effects result from welding and flame cutting tasks. Fumes resulting from metalworking are known to be carcinogenic. Extraction is a widespread method of controlling fumes and removing them from the work area. LEV (Local Exhaust Ventilation) is commonplace but must be inspected annually. By working with specialist partners, Cenheard can help identify your extraction needs and get the solutions that best suits your tasks.
Arc welding involves the use of high electrical currents which pose a significant risk of electrical shocks. Proper workplace practices, training and competency is paramount in ensuring the safety of your workforce. Cenheard has the indepth know-how to help identify these risks and support in mitigating them through methodical improvements.
Flame cutting poses different risks which must be controlled in line with the requirements of DSEAR (Dangerous Substances and Explosive Atmosphere Regulations). Our process control partners have an abundance of knowledge in DSEAR compliance and have helped us support a wide range of clients in minimising the risks of using and storing dangerous substances.
