Interested in learning more about your industry’s latest trends and innovations? Tune into the third installment of Rite-Hite’s podcast series, Rite from the Source.

September’s episode of Rite from the Source brings our listeners into the world of automation, in-plant safety, and machine guarding. The discussion is led by John Ritter, Product Manager for Rite-Hite Door Corporation. John has over 18 years of experience within the Rite-Hite family, and through his experience has become keenly familiar with the obstacles that affect day-to-day warehouse safety, efficiency, and productivity in manufacturing and material handling facilities around the world. As automation becomes increasingly ubiquitous, even traditionally harmless processes can become dangerous and may require guarding. Listen in as John examines these points of interaction between humans and automated processes, the relevant OSHA regulations and RIA guidelines surrounding them, and the innovative machine guarding solutions being applied today.
