New and Relocated Equipment Acceptance Checklist
by Dan Grannan, from the Community
This checklist guides facilities through the safe acceptance and startup of new, altered, or relocated production equipment. It covers machine controls and emergency stops, guarding and interlocks, accessibility for maintenance, lockout tagout and energy isolation, noise assessment, fluids and compressed air, electrical requirements including GFCI and explosion-proof needs, walking and working surfaces, training and manuals, and final performance acceptance. Ideal for printing and finishing lines and other manufacturing assets, it helps verify safety and operational readiness before commercial production.
