PUWER inspection and assessment in Accrington

Inspection and testing of work equipment against the five PUWER duties by an independent competent person

Making a brick means machinery that never quite stops: augers extruding clay in a continuous column, wire cutters slicing it to size, setting machines stacking green bricks by the thousand. In the town whose bricks hold up landmarks, PUWER 1998 reads the whole brick line.

PUWER inspection and testing for Accrington businesses

Work equipment across the town runs from clay preparation, extrusion, cutting and setting machinery through kiln-handling and production plant to the workshop equipment and fork trucks of the estates.

Brick machinery guards a relentless process: extruder and pug augers with genuine drawing-in power behind modest openings, wire-cutter mechanisms cycling where hands reach to clear and adjust, setting and de-hacking automation moving heavy green ware near people, and interlocks that must survive an environment of clay, grit and constant vibration. Our inspections walk the line as it runs, guards and stops proven at the real intervention points, isolation tested across a process that resists stopping, and findings recorded per machine in the written record of inspection.
