Are you looking for support
to help you improve machine
safety? Omron STI has
a number of machine
safeguarding resources to
help you create a safer, more
productive plant, including:
|
| OSHA Walkthrough is a safety and health
training software program. Omron STI has
joined forces with eMedia Solutions to
sponsor their Safety Animated Machine
(S.A.M.™) - an interactive CD produced
by a team of experts that makes learning
about OSHA regulations efficient and
memorable. More than ten hours of safety
and health training will help manufacturers
reduce workplace injuries, lower training
costs, improve safety systems, and
prepare for an inspection. |
Based on regulatory data, Omron STI
developed the
Gotcha Stick
safe distance
measurement tool.
This free tool is a
quick and easy way
to verify the safe
mounting distance
of fixed guards with gaps or openings.
It includes both metric and English
measurements, and its folding design
makes it easy to carry. |
Omron STI offers free, on-site safety
product and application training. We call
the program "Safety and Sandwiches"
because the sessions are scheduled
during the lunch break at your facility.
The sessions are tailored for plant safety,
maintenance and engineering personnel
and provide a better understanding of
available machine guarding technology,
requirements, and proper application.
Your Omron STI Area Safety Sales
Engineer (ASE) will conduct the training.
The Omron STI ASE is trained on the
operation, and application of many
safety devices and the interpretation of
the applicable regulatory and industry
standards. |
