Machine Guarding for Mechanical Power Presses

Machine Guarding for Mechanical Power Presses is an online course built on OSHA 29 CFR 1910.217. It covers press components, full and part revolution clutches, point of operation safeguards, safety distance, auxiliary guarding and press inspection.

• Learn the press vocabulary OSHA uses: point of operation, clutch, brake monitor, die, slide and safety system.
• Tell a full revolution clutch press from a part revolution press, and know which safeguards each one allows.
• Apply barrier guards, two-hand trips and controls, pullbacks, restraints and gates set at a safe distance.
