Incident rates in the die casting workplace average two times the rates of all other private industries.

NADCA produced this safety video to assist the die caster in learning to recognize the hazards in the die casting environment. This video demonstrates how to work in a safe manner to reduce potential injury to themselves and their co-workers. 

This video covers lock-out/tag-out of equipment, personal protective equipment, metal melting and handling, die casting machine guarding, hazardous communication, and housekeeping. All of these topics are essential for the die caster to know in order to work safely and to maintain a safe work environment.

To view samples of these videos, click on any of the topics listed in the paragraph above.  The full DVD version of this video, Safety in the Die Casting Workplace, can also be purchased in our Media Catalog.

This video was made possible through funding from the Harvill Foundation. The Foundation was established to provide support for continuing education opportunities in the die casting industry.
