Using modern design technology to remove common workplace hazards

December 6, 2017  By Quarry Tech



December 6, 2017 – Crushing is a dangerous business. Every year there are serious accidents on the job site and some are fatal. Nearly all could have been avoided with better safe work practices.

Safety is more than a list of instructions or better guards. Safety needs to be a big part the workplace culture – always on everyone’s minds so it’s second nature. Safety is also a numbers game. The more risk your workers are exposed to, the greater the probability you or your staff will be hurt. The more nails you need to pound in a day, the better the chances you will hit your thumb!

At the first-ever Quarry Tech forum, ELRUS USA’s Barry Proctor will discuss how modern manufacturing and design technology can remove many of the common hazards associated with the crushing and screening processes, and in doing so, improve production, reduce downtime and lower operating costs.

Who should attend?
•Quarry and sand & gravel pit operations managers and owners
•Process engineers
