METHOD STATEMENT
This method statement shall apply for the construction site to build up 8 glove dipping machine facilities
which each machine dimension is 198m(L) x 18m(H) x 2.47m(W). This method statement will identify the
components and techniques used to construct a practical and safe site environment. HLAT will execute the
works in accordance to the specifications and drawings.

Sequence of Works
Stage. 1
Upon receipt of the specification from a customer, the mechanical team will conduct a project evaluation
and discussion to study the customer's requirement/specification and prepare the project scheduling. If
the proposal is accepted, design work will commence with the mechanical team responsible for the
designing of the machine.
The machine design drawings will dictate the machine parts and components required to build the entire
machine. Approved drawings are used for fabrication of customized machine parts and components. The
mechanical engineering team also undertakes the procurement of standard parts and components for
assembly. Stringent quality control inspection is conducted to ensure the quality of these parts and
components meets the requirement.
Thereafter, assembly work is carried out on modular basis to complete the machine and equipment casing.

Stage 2
All the material will be painted using the base paint and heat resistant aluminium paint so that the
machine frame will not be rusty. Gather all these materials and cut them into to the sizes as per drawings
issued by drafting department by using the automatic Band — Saw Machine. The automatic machine will
produce a very even cut off joint and a good welding joint. After the cutting process, the materials will be
gathered by factory workers and will be weld using Semi-Automatic Welding Machine. The welding will be
done by the Semi-Automatic Welding Machine. The last part will be the grinding of the welded area and
subsequently a QC will be conducted by the supervisor. If the QC test passes, then it will be packed before
they are being sent to site for assembly and. installation.
The special design of our machine frame is that our frame had the least contact area with the Oven Panel.
According to the heat saving theory, the minimization of metal to metal contact helps to reduce the
amount of heat transferred out. Therefore, with the special design, it will provide a glove dipping machine
with lower amount of heat loss which will in turn saves our customer's cost of production.

Stage 3
The material will be sheared by the automatic shearing machine and followed by the automatic bending
machine. It will then be ready for assembly by welding with the semi-automatic argon welding machine.
The tanks will be tested for any leakage by putting up the pressure test of 3-4 Bar. If pressure test passed,
then we will assemble and install the automatic stirrer or pump system. Follow by the inverter system
where this tank will run at any speed with just control the control panel. Before sending to the site, the
flow of the tank will be tested. Our special design of our tanks is control by sensor, timer and PLC system.
Stage 4
The Material will be cut by the automatic Band — Saw Machine. Then it will be welded by the semi-
automatic T1G machine. After that, it will be grinded by the semi-automatic grinding machine and
subsequently be sent to site for installation.

Stage 5
Fabrication of Dipping Profiles is very critical. The angle of the dip cam will affect the quality of the
products. Therefore, we carefully design and calculate the perfect degree angle of the dip cam to get the
smooth and even coating surface so that we will have great quality gloves.

Stage 6
The mild steel Hollow, Angle and Channel will be cut by the automatic bandsaw machine. As for the
Stainless-Steel Plate and EG Plate will be sheared and bend by the automatic bending and shearing
machine. The machine can control the degree angle that we want for the banding angle controlled by
digital controller. After that, we will fabricate the panel. Of course, it will be followed by welding, grinding
and insulation. Then, it will be installed with temperature indicator and controller.
We are the first in glove industries that produces panel surface with temperature at 35 degrees. Others are
within the range between 50 degrees to 80 degrees. This shows that our machine heat loss is the least.

Stage 7
The material will be sheared and bend by the automatic shearing and banding machine. Then we will
fabricate the damper unit that can control the air flow. We will also fabricate the fan, chamber, plenum
and heating system by using our automatic hydraulic press machine, plasma machine and semi- automatic
welding machine.
Special design of our fan is that it can be dismantled very easily and it is very user friendly. Our heating
system has this safety feature whereby the heating system will be automatically cut off when our fan is
having problem or out of order, it is controlled by a sensor. It also has a controller to control the
temperature of our oven.

Stage 8
We fabricate and install control panel with the main drive and conveyor system together with the inverter,
timer, controller, alarm system, Sensor and even PLC system so that this machine will become an
automatic machine.
Special design of our control panel is that the machine will run by itself with the speed and temperature
we want by just pressing the button. If the machines encounter any problem or knocking, then the alarm
will be triggered and the machine will stop.
Final Stage
Upon completion of the processes above, the fully -assembled machine will go through several testing and
quality control checks. IQ and BQ testing are conducted. Thereafter, a dry run and wet run of the whole
process will be conducted. QC will certify that the machine is ready for us in the factory manufacturing
processes.

ensure safe access and egress is maintained for themselves and other contractors in the area they are
working in, good standards of housekeeping will be maintained.

Material Handling
All materials required for site will be unloaded to a designated unloading and storage area which will be
away from the work area as far as is practicable. This area will be kept tidy to minimise trip hazards.
Materials as and when required will be collected from the storage area to the work area. All staff will take
care when handling materials.

Manual Handling
All staff and contractors have been instructed on the potential dangers of manual handling, and have
received manual handling training. Staff and contractors will not lift items of tools or equipment beyond
their capabilities. Heavy or awkward items will be broken down into smaller units or dual lifted where this
is not possible. It is the responsibility of the site foreman to identify and control potentially dangerous
manual handling situations as they occur on site on a day to day basis.

Contractor/Visitor Safety
HLAT will liaise with other contractor’s staff on a day to day basis and ensure they are aware of the risks
present during the works. Staff and contractors will not leave any area of work in a dangerous condition or
with risks to themselves, other contractors, tenants, or visitors. All tools equipment will be cleared to
secure storage at the completion of each shift. Scaffold, ladders and any other access to height will be
made inaccessible.

Machinery Safety
Specific Hazards of Working with Heavy Machinery

 Workers on foot are struck by equipment, usually when it's reversing or changing direction.
 Equipment rolls over and kills the operator while on a slope or when equipment is loaded or
unloaded from lorries.
 Operators or mechanics are run over or caught in equipment when the brakes aren't set,
equipment is left in gear, wheel chocks are not used, or the equipment and controls aren't locked
out.
 Workers on foot or in a trench are crushed by falling equipment loads, backhoe buckets, or other
moving parts.
 Mechanics are killed when working alone on machinery in the event of malfunction.
Identify any underground services and ensure they are moved, capped or otherwise made safe prior to
starting work and always follow these safe procedures;

 Review operating, safety, and shutdown procedures in the operator's manual before you work with
a new piece of equipment.
 Make sure the manufacturer's safety features work.
 To prevent slips and falls, keep grease and fluids off the walking/working surfaces and use 3 points
of contact when entering and exiting equipment (such as 2 hands and 1 foot).
 To prevent rollovers, do not travel or work parallel to steep grades or embankments or on unstable
soil.
 If possible, operate heavy equipment that has a ROPS and fasten the seatbelt. (Don't use a seatbelt
if you must use equipment that has no ROPS, because you may have to jump clear during a
rollover.)
 If equipment is rolling over or out of control, do not jump if it has a ROPS and seatbelt; you have a
better chance of riding it out with a ROPS and your seat belt fastened.
 Always put the transmission in park, shut off the motor, set the brakes, and perform any other
needed shutdown procedures/lockout of controls and/or attachments before working on or around
the equipment.
 Do not reverse unless you are sure no one is behind you. Use mirrors, where appropriate.
 Do not depend only on reverse signal. They are not always heard on noisy construction sites.
 Use barriers to separate workers on foot, pedestrians, and vehicles from moving equipment, where
possible.
 When loading or unloading materials, make sure that only essential workers are in the area and
have a spotter/signal person to let you know where they are. No one should be under a suspended
load.
 Never allow other workers to ride on equipment.
 Don't speed; be extra careful around other traffic, hills, obstacles, and curves.

NOTE: The above method statement is indicative only and may vary to suit the site
conditions and site instructions or variation of works.
