Virtual reality used in safety seminars
Schmersal UK and Laidler Associates are coming together to run a short series of machinery safety seminars using virtual reality to represent as accurately as possible a production situation.
Laidler Associates are based on Teesside and have been specializing in Risk Assessment and CE Marking services since the company was formed in 1998.
Prior to this, all Laidler engineers had been working with CE compliance issues since the legislation came into force in 1993.
They won the Services category of the 2001 Tees Valley Business Awards.
Safety Systems Technology provide electrical safety solutions, and can supply and fit a range of safety products such as guards, light curtains, emergency stops and switches.
"Many of our clients have begun to ask for a complete turnkey safety solution", said Paul Laidler, Managing Director of Laidler Associates.
"Where previously we had to leave a project after we had carried out an inspection or risk assessment, through this alliance we can over see or manage the project, signing off any risk assessments after Safety Systems have carried out the remedial and modification work".
Roger Scott, Managing Director of Safety Systems adds: "Our clients are aware that they require products to fulfill a safety function, but often do not take into account their legal duties to provide documented risk assessments and inspections.
Working closely with Laidler Associates allows us both to expand our customer service by offering an augmented product". Request a free brochure from Laidler Associates ...
