Case Study: Boosting Industrial Safety with Overhead Crane Light

A leading steel manufacturing company in the UK faced persistent challenges in ensuring worker safety during overhead crane operations. Blind spots, limited visibility, and lack of proactive warning systems increased the risk of accidents and operational inefficiencies. To address these challenges, the company implemented SharpEagle’s Overhead Crane Light, a state-of-the-art solution designed to enhance safety and streamline workflows in industrial environments.

The Problem

The company encountered several critical issues:

  • Frequent Safety Incidents: Blind spots under overhead cranes led to a 20% rise in near-miss incidents over six months.
  • Lack of Visibility: Workers were unable to clearly identify the crane’s position, increasing the risk of collisions.
  • Operational Delays: Accidents and safety concerns caused workflow disruptions, reducing productivity.
  • Compliance Challenges: Meeting safety regulations required advanced warning systems tailored for overhead crane operations.

Specific Statistics Before Implementation:

  • 30% Increase in Near-Miss Reports: Workers reported frequent close calls due to unclear crane movements.
  • Average Downtime Per Incident: Each safety-related disruption caused an average of 2 hours of downtime.
  • Annual Safety Violation Costs: The company faced £15,000 in fines and penalties for failing to meet safety standards.
