Question 1 of 30
Following a comprehensive hazard identification for a newly designed industrial press, a significant pinch point hazard has been identified at the die-set area. While complete elimination of the pinch point is not feasible due to the functional requirements of the press, a lead assessor is tasked with guiding the risk reduction process. Considering the hierarchy of risk control measures stipulated by ISO 12100:2010, what is the most appropriate immediate subsequent step for the design team to undertake in mitigating this identified hazard?
Integrate robust physical guards and interlock systems directly into the press's operational mechanism.
Develop comprehensive operational manuals and provide extensive operator training on safe die-set manipulation.
Implement a remote operation system for the die-set area, allowing personnel to control the press from a safe distance.
Conduct a detailed analysis of potential failure modes of the press's control system to identify any contributing factors.
