Machine Safeguarding
Welcome to TIES Machine Safeguarding
We are here to help you achieve your safety compliance to AS/NZS 4024:2014 Safety of Machinery.
Having a team of 2 trained TUV Rheinland certified Machine Safety Technicians we can offer a guarding solution for any type of machine.
We provide risk assessment and give your machine an overall HRN (hazard rating number). This uses the likelihood of occurrence (LO) frequency of exposure (FE) degree of possible harm (DPH) and number of persons at risk (NP).
From this we can come up with a PLr (required performance level) to safeguard the machine and reduce the risk of injury. This is scaled from PLr a through to e.
A design is then required with the correct certified safety related parts to meet the performance level and then verified that the design is compliant to the standards.
We use an SRS (safety requirement specifications) template to achieve this. Once this is done we can cost up the project for approval.
We install the equipment (gates, fences, safety switches and relays etc) and validate the install against the SRS and the AS/NZS standards for compliance. You then receive ALL documentation required to comply.
We have done safety projects for clients and have submitted documentation to WorkSafe New Zealand for the lifting of Improvement Notices.
We also consult and are a member on the Fonterra Machine Guarding Technical Group.
