Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 006A Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.217(c)(3)(iii)(c): Presence sensing point of operation device(s) on mechanical power press(es) were not constructed so that a failure within the system does not prevent the normal stopping action from being applied to the press when required, but does prevent the initiation of a successive stroke until the failure is corrected. The failure shall be indicated by the system. On or about July 14, 2020 the employer failed to ensure that the failure of the presence sensing device on the Aida 300 ton press prevented successive strokes from occurring. The light curtains on the press were not functioning, however the press was able to operate in continuous mode following the clearing of a presence sensing device without actuation of the two hand control devices.
