Daw Mill has safety covered

摘要

A PIT has come up with a failsafe idea after a face worker was badly injured when a chock hose burst.Daw Mill's safety-first cover protects hoses from mineral and stone getting caught between the bank of chocks on a retreating face and damaging sheaving. But just as important it also means that if a hose does burst it will stop a jet of hydraulic oil escaping at 4,500psi - enough power to penetrate skin as easily as it would if it were delivered through a hypodermic syringe.
