Talking safety is vital
because injury and illness rates in the plastics industry are higher
than they should be. Accidents involving injection molding machines
may result in cuts, bruises, burns, electric shock, amputations,
avulsions, and even fatalities. The effects of a workplace injury
are felt not only by the person injured, but by family members,
co-workers, and others. However, injuries and fatalities can be
avoided through established safety procedures and adequate training.
This safety tour allows you to explore a horizontal injection
molding machine and learn about safety solutions based on industry
