“…One of the first protective equipment was a two-hand-controlled device. Especially in hydraulic presses, one of the most suitable solutions for protecting employees is a two-hand control arrangement (Chinniah et al , 2019). The machine moves when two hands push the buttons at the same time.…”

Purpose This study aims to prevent occupational accidents occurring in the manufacturing industry by means of touch sensors. When the occupational accidents occurring in the manufacturing industry around the world are examined, it is seen that approximately 88% of occupational accidents occur from “dangerous movement” and 10% from “dangerous situation.” Although some studies related to safety culture studies, safety studies in design and collective or personal protective measures have been started, they have not been brought to an adequate level. It is observed that studies on dangerous movements continue even in many developed countries. In this study, first of all, a literature study was conducted. Occupational accidents experienced in the manufacturing sector in Turkey have been examined. In line with these investigations, a prototype circuit protection system has been developed that can prevent accidents caused by dangerous movement. With the circuit, its applicability and effectiveness were measured by conducting experiments on different manufacturing machines. The prototype circuit applied in this paper was made based on the logic of protective measures made on sawstop machines used in different sectors. In the experimental study conducted, it was observed that in 30 experiments conducted with a prototype on ten separate manufacturing machines, it stopped the machines 26 times at minimum and 29 times at maximum. On average, when looking at the system efficiency values, it was seen that the system was 81.6% effective, and it was observed that positive results could be obtained when converted into a real product. Design/methodology/approach In this study, their contribution to the prevention of work accidents caused by presses and rotary accents from machines used in the manufacturing industry by means of touch sensors used in Industry 4.0 was examined. Findings With Industry 4.0, different automation systems began to be switched in many areas and sectors. Studies have started on different sensors used also in Industry 4.0 in occupational health and safety studies, but it is seen that they have not been applied at an adequate level. It should be designed in such a way as to prevent errors or stop these errors in the studies performed. Today, sensors are produced at much lower costs than before. In addition, the constantly developing technology provides great convenience for these applications. Research limitations/implications This study was applied for press and cylinder machines from manufacturing machines. This study has been tried for machines producing a maximum pressure of 300 tons. Originality/value A prototype was designed. Trials were done on some machines by prototype. There could be improve and find different solutions for safety problems in the industry with this perspective.

“…Safety-related control systems and functional safety offer manufacturers flexibility and a way of improving competitiveness as well as productivity. Safety becomes an integral part of the functionality rather than a required constraint to meet regulations and standards [2]. Risk in the industry is increasing over time because of the continuous shift from smaller to bigger and even bigger operations.…”

Industrial machines can be very hazardous to human life, even automated ones. There are many regulations, laws, and technical approaches implemented to reduce the risks they can pose to people, especially industrial workers, and operators during maintenance or when direct intervention by people is required. With the industrial climate nowadays, which pushes for more and more safety for the workers, development in safety features of industrial control system has been increasing steadily. This paper analyzes some of the newest iterations of those safety systems and how they may influence the industrial field.

“…The safety of machinery is a specific area in safety studies that considers a machine's ability to complete its intended duty throughout its life cycle when the likelihood of hazards has been sufficiently reduced [1]. As described by Yuvin Chinniah et al (2019) [2], "Machine safety" integrates design, technical, and procedural measures to ensure the safety of operators with industrial machines. The main objective is to prevent injuries from potential hazards present in machines, such as risky mechanical movements, moving parts, hazardous energies, and chemicals.…”

A machine is described as an assembly that has a drive system installed or is planned to have a drive system installed and that is constituted of linked elements or components, at least one of which moves, that are connected for a particular application (ISO12100). Different types of risks are present in machines, and exposure to them can cause harm or even death. When risk has been adequately reduced, machinery safety considers a machine’s ability to complete its intended duty throughout its life cycle. A literature review was carried out using “safety of machinery” as a keyword, which produced an analysis of 29 papers published from 2008 to 2024. The papers were examined through bibliometric analysis of the year of publication, country, citation statistics, and study of the keywords. These studies were classified into accident analysis papers, papers focused on the normative, papers that addressed risk assessment tools, and papers that conducted quantitative research. In addition, a more in-depth analysis of the articles associated with the keywords with the highest number of occurrences was carried out. Lastly, studies with quantitative analyses were analysed to identify new possible aspects that it is necessary to investigate.
