used for creating moulding of different color.
• After moulding, moulds are passed to input unit and
cleaned
• Basecoat of moulds is carried out.
• Coated moulds are passed to curing process for drying.
• Metalizing of moulds is done.
• Quality check is done as per standard.
 HANDLING WHILE TRANSPORTATION
FROM STORE ROOM TO CLEAN ROOM
Employees don’t wait for two minutes before entering the store
room and this is increasing the risk of inhalation of vapours mist.
Respiratory protection is at risk and lead to fatal accident.

Trolley support at the lower side of trolley is missing and it is

increasing the risk of sliding of containers of chemicals while
transportation from store room to clean room due to gravitation pull
and jerk motion

while moving through inclined planes.See image below.

Operator awareness should be increased regarding not wearing antistatic footwear and
clothing according to MSDS of major chemicals.
Potential risk of inhalation of vapours and accidental damage of chemical containers
mainly lacquer and risk of fire due to leakage and personal protection.
Potential risk of fire will be reduced in store room.
