Machine safeguarding is the practice of protecting workers from injuries caused by operating machines that have moving parts or functions. The process involves installing shields or devices that cover the hazardous areas of a machine, such as ingoing nip points, rotating parts, flying chips, or sparks. It also requires manufacturers to following proper safety procedures including machine inspection and maintenance, use of PPE, and thorough training.
