1. What are the safety rules for conveyors?
Never reach into moving conveyors. Always use lockout/tagout procedures before maintenance. Keep loose clothing secured. Ensure all guards are in place before the operation. Know emergency stop locations. Maintain clear paths around conveyors. Report any unsafe conditions immediately.
2. What are the OSHA rules for conveyors?
OSHA requires proper guarding at all nip points, emergency stop devices within reach of operators, lockout/tagout procedures for maintenance, regular inspections, adequate training for all workers, and visible warning signs around hazardous areas of conveyor systems.

The three types are awareness training (general hazard recognition), job-specific training (hands-on skills for specific conveyor operations), and emergency response training (procedures for accidents and malfunctions). Our conveyor safety training covers all three essential types.
4. What are the functional safety features of conveyors?
Functional safety features include emergency stop buttons, pull cords along conveyor paths, automatic shutoffs for jams, interlock guards that prevent operation when removed, warning alarms before startup, and motion sensors that detect workers in danger zones.
