Setting the standard on cutting systems safety

摘要

ESAB Welding & Cutting Products has effectively implemented the new European EN ISO standard 17916 for the safety of thermal cutting machines. ESAB spearheaded the initiative to establish the new EN ISO standard, which provides enhanced worker safety, and is the first and only cutting systems manufacturer to currently stand in full compliance. From now on all the cutting systems manufactured at ESAB's Karben, Germany facility will meet the new EN ISO safety requirements, scheduled to go into effect throughout the industry in late 2014.
