Industrial machinery

BECOME AN INDUSTRIAL MACHINERY MECHANIC

Industrial machinery is production machinery. This means at least two things:

First, the machine is located in a plant of some sort and, second, when it breaks down, getting it running again quickly is essential.

A broken machine can stop an entire assembly line, costing a Company a huge amount of money in lost production time.

That’s why industrial machinery mechanics are so vital.

It’s also why these professionals spend so much of their time doing preventive maintenance.

Machine parts need to be oiled, greased, and cleaned on a regular basis.

Robots and other automated equipment need to be calibrated.

And often, diagnostic programs must be run.

Indeed, given the increasing computerization of industrial machines.

It can be important to be as good with a floppy disk and keyboard as whit a socket wrench and micrometer.

The work can be dirty and cramped.

You may be called in from a sound night’s sleep to make emergency repairs in the middle of the night.

In fact, the U.S labor department reports that for more tan half of all industrial machinery repairers, working overtime is common.

This can be a very well paid job.

And no wonder: if the machine don’t work, the Factory doesn’t work. That makes a company’s industrial machinery mechanics very important people indeed.

CONVERTIRSE EN UN MECÁNICO DE MAQUINARIA INDUSTRIAL

Maquinaria industrial es la maquinaria de producción. Esto significa al menos dos cosas:

En primer lugar, la máquina se encuentra en una planta de algún tipo y, segundo, cuando se rompe, cada vez que vuelva a funcionar de forma rápida es esencial.

Una máquina rota puede parar una línea de montaje de todo, esto cuesta a la empresa una gran cantidad de dinero en el tiempo de producción perdido.

Es por eso que la mecánica de maquinaria industrial es tan vital.

Es también la razón por estos profesionales pasan mucho de su tiempo haciendo mantenimiento preventivo.

Necesita ser aceitada, engrasada y limpiada regularmente piezas de la máquina.

Los robots y otros equipos automatizados se necesitan de calibrar Y a menudo, los programas de diagnóstico se deben ejecutar.

De hecho, dada la creciente informatización de máquinas industriales.

Puede ser importante ser tan bueno con un disquete y teclado como Contamos con una llave de tubo y el micrómetro.

El trabajo puede ser sucio y estrecho.

Usted puede ser llamado mientras duerme  para hacer reparaciones de emergencia en el medio de la noche.

De hecho, el Departamento de Trabajo de Estados Unidos informa que durante más de la mitad de todos los talleres de reparación de maquinaria industrial, las horas extras de trabajo es común.

Esto puede ser un trabajo muy bien pagado.

Y no es de extrañar: si la máquina no funciona, la fábrica no funciona. Eso hace que la mecánica de maquinaria industrial de una empresa sea muy importante ciertamente.

PRESENTATION TEST 7

Personal Protective Equipment

1.     Power tools present more hazards than hand tools due to the speed at which they operate. There are distinct differences between the PPE suggested for use with hand tools and the PPE recommended for safe power tool use.

2.     Eye protection, such as safety glasses or goggles, is especially important when using power tools. The speed in which drills, saws, grinders, sanders and routers operate can propel small particles much faster and farther than do hand tools. Others working around the area where power tools are used should also wear protective eyewear. Certain power tools may require using a face shield, in addition to safety glasses or goggles. For example, a face shield is recommended while using a grinder, due to the amount of hot metal particles generated.

3.     Standard cotton or leather work gloves can protect your hands from minor scrapes and cuts while working with various materials. Cut-resistant gloves are not designed for, or capable of providing protection against a moving blade or bit. The best way to prevent injury from moving parts is to keep your hands on the tools' handles and keep all guards in place. Anti-vibration gloves minimize the vibration created by hammerdrills and rotary hammerdrills.

4.     Safety footwear is recommended when using power tools. Power tools are heavy and can cut you. Safety shoes with a nonslip, insulated sole and a steel toe protect against dropped objects and misdirected electricity.

5.     The higher sound levels generated by some power tools, especially if used over extended periods of time, may require the use of earplugs or earmuffs. Even the use of a dust respirator may be necessary in sanding and cutting operations. Each situation must be analyzed to determine the type of PPE that is required for the safe use of each type of power tool.

6.     Along with PPE, proper attire is also important while using power tools. Tie back or cover long hair, wear loose fitting clothes and remove all jewelry to avoid being caught in moving blades.

7.     Proper Work Practices

8.     Portable power tools are designed for a wide variety of uses. Circular saws, jig saws, drills,hammer drills, sanders, grinders, routers and numerous other power tools save us time and effort on the job. The growing popularity of cordless battery-operated tools is putting power tools to use in more places than ever before, heightening the need for awareness of the dangers they present if not operated properly.
