Safety Controls

The two-hand control requires constant, concurrent pressure by the operator to activate the machine. This kind of control requires a part-revolution clutch, brake, and brake monitor if used on a power press as shown here. With this type of device, the operator's hands are required to be at a safe location (on the control buttons) and at a safe distance from the danger area while the machine completes its closing cycle.
