CoreRFID has helped develop a new device which protects users of powertools in the workplace.
The Skelmersdale-based software consultancy worked with risk management specialist Reactec to develop the hand arm vibration (HAV) range of wearable technology, tool mounted technology, mobile apps and an analytics software platform.
The new HAVwear device is worn like a wristwatch and provides real-use monitoring of HAV exposure when using power tools. The HAVwear displays total vibration exposure, which helps workers manage their own exposure while the automatically collated data informs managers' efforts to control the risk.
