Full of information such as international standards to refer to, methods for risk assessment, oil and pneumatic risk reduction measures for various applications, and equipment selection flowcharts.
"Machine safety" refers to the efforts to avoid accidents and disasters that may occur when using machinery through machine design. Even if there are operator mistakes, erroneous operations, or failures of the machinery itself, if the design and equipment are implemented with these risks in mind, it becomes possible to reduce the risk of accidents.
~The Importance of Risk Assessment for Pneumatic and Hydraulic Equipment~
In production facilities and various machines, pneumatic and hydraulic energy is widely utilized in addition to electricity. For example, even if electrical control devices are established for safety, if the final drive device, which is the pneumatic or hydraulic equipment, breaks down, the facility may become unsafe.
This document introduces international standards to refer to for preventing machine disasters in hydraulic and pneumatic equipment, methods for risk assessment, key points for risk evaluation, and specific measures to reduce hydraulic and pneumatic risks, all in a comprehensive 96-page volume.
