John Ridley and Dick Pearce, both recognized specialists in
machinery safety, guide the reader through the various standards,
regulations and best practices relating to the safe design and use
of machinery and show which standard is relevant for which type of
machine. "Safety with Machinery" provides a basic grounding in
machinery safety and covers safeguarding philosophy and strategy,
typical hazards, risk assessment and reduction, guarding
techniques, ergonomic considerations, safe use of equipment and
plant layout. All types of safeguards are discussed - mechanical,
interlocking, electrical / electronic / programmable, hydraulic,
pneumatic.
The new edition has been updated throughout in line with changes in
regulations and standards. The section on electric, electronic and
programmable safety systems has been expanded to reflect their
increasing importance. The book now focuses on the harmonised
standards (e.g. EN ISO 13849, IEC/EN 61131-2) which can be used by
manufacturers to self-certify their machines for the European
market without the need for third party examination, but also
covers other relevant standards (e.g. IEC 62061). Many practical
examples set the regulations in context and assist in the
interpretation of the various standards.
"Safety with Machinery" is essential reading for all engineers
involved in machinery design and maintenance all over the world as
every machine sold within or into the EU needs to conform to the
harmonised standards. It also provides health and safety
professionals, students and employee representatives, as well as
certification bodies, health and safety inspectors and safety
regulators with a comprehensive overview of machinery safety.
