OSHA Regulations
1910.217 (C) (3) (iii)
Safeguarding the Point of Operation
(iii) A presence sensing point of operation device shall
protect the operator as provided in paragraph (c) (3)
(i) (a) of this section, and shall be interlocked into the
control circuit to prevent or stop slide motion if the
operator's hand or other part of his body is within the
sensing field of the device during the downstroke of the
press slide.
(a) The device may not be used on machines using
full revolution clutches.
(b) The device may not be used as a tripping means
to initiate slide motion.
(c) The device shall not be 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.
( d) Muting (bypassing of the protective function) of
such device, during the upstroke of the press
slide, is permitted for the purpose of parts
ejection, circuit checking, and feeding.
( e) Refer to ANSI B 11.19-2003 for calculating safety
light curtain distance from the point of operation.
(f) Guards shall be used to protect all areas of
entry to the point of operation not protected by
the presence sensing device.

Additional requirements for safeguarding
Where the operator feeds or removes parts by placing
one or both hands in the point of operation and a two
hand control presence sensing device or Type B gate

a brake monitor which comply with paragraphs
(b) (13) and (14) of this section.
(e) Inspection, maintenance, and modification of

(a) Machine guarding - (1) Types of guarding. One
or more methods or machine guarding shall
be provided to protect the operator and other
employees in the machine area from hazards
such as those created by point of operation
ingoing nip points, rotation parts, flying chips
and sparks. Examples of guarding methods
are: barrier guards, two-handed tripping
devices, electronic safety devices, etc.
