Hand-Arm Vibration (HAV) and Hydrojetting

Post by nantha09 »

Hi Friends!

I am working for a Hydrojetting company and currently doing my part time degree in HSE.
I am contemplating of doing Hand-Arm Vibration (HAV) related to High Pressure Water Jetting or Hydrojetting for my final year research project.

Just started my hunt for information and been pretty unsuccessful. Not much HAV reported with Hydrojetting.

I would like to request to everyone reading this post. Please do let me know if you have any info or any sources I can refer to.

thank you.

:hello2:

Research from 2004 :

Hand-arm vibration and noise measurements of high pressure water jetting equipment

"The primary objective was to carry out HAV measurements in order to investigate the difference in vibration between water jetting nozzles with rotating jets and water jetting nozzles with a single straight jet. A difference in vibration between these type of nozzles could have implications on the specific vibration data requirements for operator vibration exposure risk assessments"

I guess a good place to start for stats and reports is here ./thumbsup.. - http://www.mom.gov.sg/

Thank you WB!

Yap MOM SG does have plenty of stats but can't seem to find much on vibration or hydrojetting.

Thanks Again!
