What Causes Mechanical Failure Injuries in Industrial Workplaces in Columbus? 

When a piece of machinery or heavy equipment is used properly by a trained specialist, the risk of malfunction or failure is low. 

Unfortunately, machines still account for about 13 percent of work-related deaths across the nation. Every year, thousands of industrial workers are injured or killed in machinery accidents involving forklifts, milling machines, vertical and horizontal machining centers, lathes, centrifuges, mixers, air compressors, and other pieces of equipment.

Many of these accidents happen when a piece of machinery fails.

So, why does machinery fail and why do workers sustain catastrophic injuries?

  • Workers are not trained in the proper use of the machinery.
  • Machinery is not used properly.
  • Industrial machinery is inherently defective.
  • Surfaces and components of heavy machinery degrade and no longer function properly.
  • Industrial machinery is not properly inspected or maintained.

Mechanical failures can be limited when employers have strict safety protocols in place. Workers should be thoroughly trained on the use of a piece of equipment for its used, and all machinery should be inspected and maintained on a regular basis.
