Press Controls and Osha Safety

[kcor 1]

Am in the process of building a pneumatic press unit that will be a prototype for 35 more units that we will build, that will be used to press a sheet of fabric to a certain shape after it comes out of a heat chamber. Will be using the AB micrologics 1500 plc, as well as a AB safety light curtain to ensure that nothing enters the press area once the cycle has been started, and banner two hand anti tie down controls to start the cycle. Am wondering is there any web page or documentation that explains the OSHA and safety requirements when dealing with Press units.

Does that apply to the US and Canada? Noticed that was the CSA website, not US OSHA..

True for both Canada and USA.
