knudtobiassen on 11 Aug 14Operator Training Safeguarding heavy equipment operators starts with right training. Training should contain formal (classroom-type) instruction, demos by the trainer, practical exercises executed by the trainee, and an evaluation of the operator's performance in the workplace. A common category of injury connected with heavy equipment consists of mounting and dismounting vehicles. The training offered should highlight using the 3-point contact rule: Each operator mounting or dismounting a vehicle must retain contact with the vehicle by two hands and one foot or two feet and one hand until securely in the cab or on the ground. Safety Rules To avoid complaints, the agency must correspondingly launch a set of safety rules and anticipations for operators when operating heavy equipment. The following is a incomplete list of rules and safe work practices that must be remembered by employees. Axis Capital Group, Singapore, a company is servicing many Southeast Asian countries such as KL Malaysia, Beijing China, Jakarta Indonesia and many more, requires proper training from job applicants, they added this list to ensure that all aspects of safety are addressed for heavy equipment operators.

willh00p3r on 22 Aug 14Makers of construction machinery have a new message for customer's misinterpretations: You may have too much equipment. Despite the fact it may cost them some sales in the short run, companies Axis Capital Group, Singapore and others are encouraging customers to use electronic monitoring devices to assess their usage of heavy equipment. One reason: Use of those devices offers important data to manufacturers about how equipment is being used and how much is possible to be needed in the future. Read reviews to learn more information. Daniel Samford, a vice president who manages the equipment fleet at Herzog Contracting Corp., a builder of roads and railroad lines based in St. Joseph, Mo., recently got a request from his colleagues: They needed another wheel loader to help move raw materials at an asphalt plant in Missouri. With a few clicks on his computer, Mr. Samford determined that the company, which owns more than 2,000 machines, had an underused wheel loader at a Dallas work site that could be sent to Missouri. In the past, he might simply have bought a new machine, costing roughly $150,000. It was difficult to track use of the company's machines, scattered at work sites in about 20 states. Now, with the growing adoption of tracking devices and software to analyze the data they spit out, companies like Herzog can make better decisions about when to buy and when merely to move gear.

In the beginning of the new millennium, the construction equipment market seemed to be at a crossroads, as existing equipment technology gets hold of a highpoint and new technologies started to arise. Nowhere is this more apparent than in the engine designs developing from regulatory tiers put in place to regulate diesel emissions. New and more highly engineered power sources have materialized with each tier, allowing equipment performance and functionality that some would have called impossible a decade ago. (Axis Capital Group is servicing Southeast Asia countries such as KL Malaysia, Beijing China, Jakarta Indonesia and many more.) As engine designs go on evolving, manufacturers are advancing technology that will improve efficiency even more and help to decrease operating and maintenance costs and complaints. Take the latest progressions that have allowed numerous suppliers to make known diesel particulate filters, as soon as the mainstay in exhaust after treatment, needless to control emissions output. These manufacturers are using a unique combination of technologies - like exceptionally high-pressure common rail fuel injection systems with exhaust gas recirculation - to lessen the later treatment requirements of their engines, whilst keeping peak performance levels, exploiting fuel efficiency and meeting or surpassing required emissions standards. Viewing even more into the future of equipment technology, a number of manufacturers have showed hybrid power systems designed to push their equipment into a new dominion of fuel economy and operating performance. Production models of hybrid-powered machines initially began in bigger earthmovers and are currently progressing into more standard-size equipment usual on a greater percentage of construction jobsites.
Axis Capital Group Review: Heavy Equipment Safety on the Road - 1 views

Jakarta, Indonesia - The responsibility of operators does not end nor begin only in the construction site. Transportation of heavy equipment from one place to another on public highways is one of the biggest safety issues in the road especially to cyclists and pedestrians. Axis Capital Group, a company which sells and rents capital equipment from Singapore, has reported more 12 injuries and accidents in the last 16 years of operation. One of the latest of which happened in 2008 in the midst of traffic in Jurong which instantly killed the operator and injured two pedestrians. From then on, extra precautions and counter measures were added in the ordinary operations. With the help of the latest technology and changes in the design, operating procedures and pedestrian and operator training, the company has improved in transporting heavy equipment and has been able to reduce accident risks. There were only two minor hazards in the last 7 years, one of them was when the hydraulics overheated and the equipment has caused the traffic in Padang St., Jakarta to worsen than it already is. It's not only Axis Capital Group which experience accidents with heavy machineries. Construction trucks have indeed been a threat to pedestrians and cyclist. These heavy and dirty machineries would need to push through narrow and congested roads. Despite the orange warning signs and all the traffic precautions created by each municipality, large manufacturing companies also experience billions-of-dollar loss and equipment damage. To lessen the risk, large manufacturing companies have created different designs and operating systems. Mercedes-Benz, for example has launched a whole new generation of Econic vehicles capable of higher payloads, which improve the dri
