OSHA 1910.217 (c) (3) (vii) (c)
(c) The safety distance (Ds) between each
two hand control device and the point of
operation shall be greater than the distance
determined by the following formula:
Ds = 63 inches/second x Ts, where
Ds = minimum safety distance (inches);
63 inches/second = hand speed constant;
and
Ts = stopping time of the press measured at
approximately 90° position of crankshaft
rotation (seconds).
Example:
Measured stopping time = 0.190 seconds
Time factor = 1.2 x 0.19 = 0.228 seconds
Calculation = 63 x 0.228
Safety distance = 14.4 inches
