“All moving parts of prime movers, transition equipment and all dangerous
parts of driven machinery shall be effectively guarded, unless so constructed or located to prevent any person or object
from coming or brought into contact with
them.”
Rule 1200: Machine Guarding
Barriers that prevent entry of an individual’s hands or other body parts installed to minimize the risk of injury to machine operators

- Fixed enclosing guards
- Movable guards
- Two-hand controls
- Adjustable guards
Preventing Access
What category of machine guards are these?
- Photoelectric light curtains
- Pullback devices

Preventing Dangerous motions
This type of guard is attached to a fixed
surface and encloses the hazard. When in
place, it prevents anyone from going over,
around, under or through it to the hazard.
Fixed enclosing guards
This type of guard prevents machine motion until the guard is moved into place. The interlocking method may be mechanical, electrical, pneumatic, or a combination of these.
Movable guards with interlocking switches
- Enclose the point of operation before the machine can be operated.
- Keep the point of operation enclosed before the hazardous part of the machine motion ceases.
- Prevent operation of the machine if the interlock fails.
requirements for the interlock guard to be effective
This type of guard are operator controls that require an operator to hold both
controls down during the hazardous portion of the machine’s stroke
Two-hand opertator controls
This type of guard can be positioned to
accommodate a variety of operations or work and when properly adjusted provides adequate protection from the hazard at the point of operation.
Adjustable Guard
This type of guard provides a barrier which moves according to the size of the stock entering the danger area.
Self-adjusting guard

designed to protect a worker’s hands or other body parts from coming into contact with a hazardous motion of a machine.
Safety Device

sensing field, area, or plane that will detect in its field the presence of an opaque object.
Presence sensing device
These devices emit a “curtain” of harmless infrared light beams in front of the hazard area.
Photo Electric Light Curtain
are cable and wristlet systems
that attach to an operator’s
hands and to the machine’s
moving slide or ram, or to a
fixed object away from the point
of operation. They are usually
used on machines having
reciprocating motions.
