steelTalks is a monthly series on topics of safety issues in working at height. The lectures are presented in a webinar format with a guest lecturer. This webinar examines how Tata Steel developed and deployed a safety instrumented system to reduce derailment risks during rail-based hot metal transport. The solution uses a multi-barrier approach combining one-touch point setting, track alignment feedback, proximity sensing, optical sensing, alarms, and automatic correction.
