Shadowboards optimise Lockout/Tagout compliance

When applied correctly, Lockout/Tagout reduces accidents during machine interventions by isolating machine energy supply points. Lockout/Tagout Shadow Boards can help to easily distribute lockout devices and padlocks and to communicate procedures and ongoing work permits, maintenance projects and energy isolations.

Lean Lockout/Tagout
Dedicated Lockout/Tagout Shadow Boards drastically reduce the time needed to look for the right tools in the workplace. Even when a tool is in use, shadow boards show a colourful tool shadow which quickly shows where the tool is usually stored. As a clean, visually prominent storage board for tools, Brady’s customised shadow board can increase the efficient use of Lockout/Tagout in line with the principles of lean manufacturing. Display Lockout/Tagout devices, padlocks and documents to make them clearly visible and easy to choose from for employees and communicate work permits, maintenance projects or Lockout/Tagout isolations.

Customise without hassle
The problem with many shadow boards, or work control boards, is that they are a lot of hassle. Brady’s shadow board however is always custom-made enabling users to order in advance exactly what they need. No more drilling extra holes on-site or cutting out shadows for tools. Just contact Brady to discuss which lockout devices and how many document holders will be placed on the board, how big the writing area should be, and which materials should be used. Brady sends back a customised shadow board concept for approval.

Reduce accidents
Dedicated Lockout/Tagout Shadow Boards will increase the effectiveness of a Lockout/Tagout programme aimed at reducing accidents during machine interventions. When ongoing isolations, lockout devices and padlocks are visible and immediately available, employees have all the more reason to follow the lockout procedures and avoid accidents in the workplace.

Optimising the use of Lockout/Tagout will increase safety during machine interventions and increase productivity by reducing workplace accidents.
