We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Safety Regulations",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Engineeringtalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Lubrication management avoids a wasted investment from
AV Technology, which we summarised at the time by saying "Outsourcing lubrication management as part of a wider condition monitoring programme has a number of very cost-effective benefits".
A few weeks before,
we featured the news release Preventing the needless New Year death toll from
Pilz Safe Automation Australia: "Frank Schrever explains how correct safety procedures during plant shutdowns can prevent needless accidents".
In November 2007, we covered the news from Hylec-APL
concerning its Terminal blocks and connectors
- take a look at A burning issue?
which says: "Changes to the regulations mean manufacturers must reassess the fire-resistance and assembly safety of the components they use - industrial customers should also take note, says Terry Spriggs".
Take a look also at the news release from Folding Guard, Machine guards expand range,
as well as Temperature calibrators suit marine uses from Ametek Calibration Instruments,
and Radios monitor hoists in dangerous environments from Digi International.
