Companies such as Arrow use recycling balers to compact recycling into blocks for easy storage and transportation. However the HSE found that the way Arrow stored its bales resulted in heavy unstable loads which ultimately caused the falling cardboard. The company was convicted and fined for breaching Regulation 10(4) of the Work at Height Regulations 2005 (WAHR) and ordered to pay costs of 2,917. Under Section 33 of the Health and Safety at Work etc Act 1974 (HSWA), it is an offence to breach any health and safety regulations. This includes the WAHR. Under Regulation 10 of the WAHR, the st

Steve Hutin, managing director at RSS, explained that the biggest challenge was encountered by the centre of gravity of the middle section of the cranes that included the operators cabin. He said: We knew the section was 50t in weight but the centre of gravity was out so we used two [MOD 50] Modulift spreader beams in close proximity. RSS utilised fixed lifting attachments on the front of the cabins, while two 30t chain blocks were used on the back with a flat braided wire rope sling that was manufactured to lift level. As with the other two sections, the main piece was lowered onto stools

Nevertheless, the major problem with the rule is its last-minute expansion to cover not only those working with beryllium alloys, but also abrasive blasting in the construction and shipyard industries. The materials used for abrasive blasting, like coal and copper slagwaste products from coal power plants or smelting and refining processeswould otherwise end up in landfills. Instead, it is recycled and put to use. It also contains only trace amounts of beryllium, as much as 22,000 times less than in some copper beryllium alloys, the original focus of the rule. The already heavily regulated

What really bothers me is, what if these people dont have workmans compensation, and if they get hurt, who cares? Its a common problem. Fall protection tops the list of the 10 most common violations cited by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration. Morris called OSHA to complain, but didnt like the answer he got. They said, well by time we get out there it'll probably be all taken care of, and we dont have the manpower to work on every complaint we receive, he said. Channel 2 News made the same call Monday to OSHAs 800 number, and got a slightly different answer. The OSHA representative

"The average crane is 30 feet in the air or more. If the load is not centered properly, as soon as you lift, the load begins to swing. Hook Centering positions the crane directly over the hook preventing sway before it ever happens. It is exclusively available from Konecranes." These technologies are a small sample of what Konecranes offers to help operators work more efficiently while protecting people, products and equipment. "Most crane operators are infrequent operators," says Ubl. "They may be machinists or fabricators. Once they finish doing their real job they use the crane to pick up

Chain Hoists Driven By Electricity

Electrically powered hoisting equipment can raise massive plant. They lifting equipment audits include an electrical motor that drives the tool. The link chain is typically placed in between the equipments of the electric hoisting equipment. When the device is activated and the motor is activated, the chain lowers down or pulls up the loading relying on the direction signals delivered to the motor. In some electric chain block designs there is a pair of lever like devices commonly known as chain falls which are affixed to the hoist's electric... Read more

Pull Lift Design Chain Block

Lever type hoists are normally used with mobile, modest raising devices that commonly depend on manual effort so as to lower or raise weighty loads. This kind of hoisting apparatus falls in a number of key categories: chain hoists or rope driven hoist/cable hoisting apparatus. They both depend on a pawl & wheel process in order to rate a pulley-block or possibly gear wheel to a predetermined range before hoisting the load. The lever and ratchet mechanism is suitably supplied with a latch or grapple utilized to dangle a pul lift from reliable support. Each of... Read more
