SafeGauge has an innovative focus on removing technicians from the line of fire when live testing on heavy mobile plant machinery. Their multi-awarded products are the only wireless testing solution made for the heavy industry.
Their goal is to eliminate live work (ELW) and thereby minimize the chances of crush and fluid injection injuries, whilst conducting necessary pneumatic and hydraulic maintenance duties.
SafeGauge founder, Luke Dawson, routinely tested machinery across mine sites as a heavy plant mechanic. He was concerned that workers were regularly exposed to the risk of severe or even fatal injuries when undertaking routine pressure testing of hydraulic equipment. He worked on developing safer, remote wireless testing products to help eliminate live testing on-site, which led to the creation of SafeGauge.
Mining Now had an in-depth conversation with Luke at the International Mining and Resources Conference (IMARC) in Sydney, Australia. In this episode, he will be walking us through their company background, award-winning products, and expansion plans.
To this end, they’ve developed a range of specialist wireless testing solutions that allow workers to safely maintain heavy machinery from a safe distance.
Products
1. Multi-award winning SafeTest range of pressure transducers (PT) and dial indicators (DI) – The only solutions suitable for heavy industry applications.
2. Wireless MultiTool monitoring system – Can connect multiple SafeTest systems simultaneously while bringing maintenance testing into the digital age.
Today, SafeGauge remains proudly Australian-owned and continues to support local manufacturing and supply businesses to produce quality products.
