Original title Ermittlung und Untersuchung der Unfallschwerpunkte an Bogen-Rotations-Offsetdruckmaschinen [in German]
Bibliographic information Jan. 1974, No.1, p.11-19. Illus.
Abstract In an analysis of 900 accidents occurring during work with sheet-fed rotary offset presses, a method for determining accident black spots using a computer is described: structure of the study, statistical analysis, examination of the different accident black spots. A detailed analysis (according to injury site, machine part and manufacturer) is presented, and possible preventive measures are indicated. A specific relationship was found between accident black spots and the different machine manufacturers.
