Abstract: The sheet metal fabrication industry is using various thickness of sheets for making the components as per the drawing requirement. This sheet metal fabrication process is complex by physical phenomena, process fluctuations and complicated parameter and dimensions in the production processes. In this modern industrialization, man machine interaction is expected more and more collaborations during machine operation. Machine are considered as the prime for engineering industry in development and speed up of products that are required to meet the market requirement. They play a key role in transforming the raw material to intermediate components and finally as product to various customer. The efficiency of machine depends on their type, capacity, operator skill and many more.
There are many improvements developed in Machine designs but still the control measures implemented in the Machine is not making the effectiveness in many engineering industries. After the analysis of all Machine accidents, we identified that most of the accidents are during machine operation and having lack of control measures. So, this research aims for a detailed study of Machine operation and maintenance for a safe work methodology by considering the hazard and risk associated with the machine.

Keywords: Fabrication, Safety, Hazard & Risk.
