Master is a major UK distributor for Curotec Team Ltd, the manufacturer of this innovative system. In the UK alone there are over 300,000 people reported as suffering from HAVS and 2 million at risk. As a result, litigation claims are on the increase. Curotec’s system has been developed to accurately collect and monitor vibration exposure levels, actively reducing the risk of contracting HAVS and identifying areas needing preventative action. With no known cure for the disease, the Curo can become a vital part of employees PPE, helping to prevent and protect them from HAVS. The Curo has been developed as a PPE product that not only accurately monitors vibration exposure levels but also actively reduces the risk of contracting HAVS. The Curo in use, showing its versatility The HSE regulations have forced the industry to re-evaluate the threat of over-exposure to vibration in order to keep its employees safe. As a result, the ‘Curo’ fits well into Master’s comprehensive range of services, complimenting the HAV tool testing offer with an affordable, effective, easy-to-use vibration management system. Master’s technical team can provide support, training and installation free of charge. Further information about the Curo is available on www.master-toolservices.co.uk. Issue 19 PECM 111
