Certifications
Our highly knowledgeable technicians are also capable of certifying your equipment in various categories such as : OSHA and ANSI Safety Distance and Penetration factor calculation for fixed barrier guards, Electronic Brake Monitoring (Ram stop performance) and much more.
Protech Systems Systems provides stop-time measurement services on various reciprocating (stroking or cycling) machines such as mechanical or hydraulic press and press brakes. We also provide these stop-time measurements on machines that rotate such as lathes, mills, and drills.
At your request, our trained technician will visit your facility and use a stop-time measurement device to measure the time it takes a machine to stop after a signal is given. The information is then used in the OSHA and ANSI safety formulas to calculate the minimum safety distance required for the location of the machine operating controls/safeguarding device in relation to the nearest hazard.
