Rockford Systems announces 2019 seminar schedule

Rockford Systems LLC has released its 2019 schedule of machine safeguarding seminars for professionals in the EH&S, plant management, insurance, and metal fabrication industries.

The 2.5-day seminars focus mainly on the interpretation of performance language found in both OSHA 29 CFR and ANSI B-11 series standards, with specific safeguarding situations discussed such as basic risk reduction guidelines for metalworking machines as they relate to production requirements. Additional standards covered include ANSI/RIA R15.06 Safeguarding Industrial Robots, NFPA 79, and NFPA 70E.

Attendees also will witness a series of 15 safety demonstrations on lathes, power presses, and press brakes so they can see firsthand how different guards and devices can be applied to prevent injuries and save lives.
