How to Prevent Safety Accidents in Stone Production and Processing

The production and processing of stone products involve various operations such as hoisting, cutting, grinding, polishing, repairing, carving, transporting, loading and unloading, and packaging. There are many potential safety hazards in these processes, so corresponding precautions need to be taken to ensure the safety of workers.

Common Causes of Injury

1. Mechanical Injury

Cutting equipment used in stone processing can cause injuries to workers due to improper operation. For example, cutting machines, grinding machines, and polishing machines can cause hand injuries during operation.

2. Slab Injury

Workers may be injured by slabs falling, pressing, or cutting during the processing and handling of stone.

3. Falls from Height

Workers may fall due to instability or improper operation during high-altitude operations.

4. Slips and Falls

A slippery working environment can lead to slips or falls.

5. Other Injuries

Including lifting injuries, vehicle injuries, electrocution, drowning, burns, fires, and container explosions.

How to Prevent Safety Accidents

1. Safety Education and Training

Ensure that all operators have undergone professional safety education and training and are familiar with safety production regulations and procedures.

2. Professional Positions Certified

Ensure that key positions are held by personnel with the corresponding qualifications.

3. Standardize Operation Processes

Guide employees to carefully follow operation processes to ensure that the operation and maintenance of equipment and work areas are recorded in detail.

4. Technical Training

Strengthen the professional technical training of mining company staff to improve the operation, maintenance, and management capabilities of equipment management teams.

5. Improve Safety Protection Measures

Establish and improve safety protection measures, including direct safety protection measures such as grounding, insulation, isolation, and spacing, as well as the automation transformation of safety protection devices for electrical leakage and electrocution.

6. Accident Emergency Rescue Plan

Develop an accident emergency rescue plan and on-site disposal plan, and strengthen drills.

7. Equipment Procurement and Maintenance

Choose equipment with high safety performance and establish a daily maintenance and regular maintenance system for equipment.

Conclusion

By standardizing safe production practices, implementing safety technical measures, and increasing the safety management of equipment, safety accidents can be effectively prevented, ensuring the safety of workers' lives and the stable development of enterprises.
