Metals & Fabrication EHS & Safety Management Software

Connect machine safety, welding and hot work, heavy-material handling, industrial hygiene, environmental risk, corrective actions, and EHS performance across metals and fabrication operations.

DEXUR EHS connects safety information across steel manufacturing, metal fabrication, structural steel shops, machine shops, foundries, forging operations, pipe fabrication, and heavy-equipment manufacturing—from individual equipment findings to plant-wide risk visibility.

From shop-floor hazard to verified closure

Connect Metals & Fabrication Safety From the First Finding to Verified Closure

Metals and fabrication operations combine high-energy machinery, hot processes, sharp materials, suspended loads, hazardous energy, fumes, dust, chemicals, and heavy-material movement.

Risk can change by machine, process, task, material, shift, and work area. DEXUR connects each event or finding to the equipment, process, task, responsible team, corrective action, and verification record.

  1. Identify

    Capture a hazard, incident, exposure, or inspection finding at its shop-floor location.

  2. Investigate

    Connect the machine, process, material, energy source, and contributing factors.

  3. Prioritize

    Focus attention on high-consequence and recurring conditions.

  4. Assign

    Route actions to maintenance, production, industrial hygiene, environmental, or EHS teams.

  5. Correct

    Track the control, repair, process change, or exposure-control action.

  6. Verify

    Confirm the control at the equipment or process and monitor for recurrence.

One unified platform

Manage Metals & Fabrication EHS in One Platform

01 / MACHINE SAFETY

Machine, Press & Metalworking Safety

Connect machine findings directly to the equipment and corrective action.

Manage presses, press brakes, shears, saws, CNC machines, grinders, rolling equipment, forming machines, forging equipment, guarding, interlocks, dies, and tooling.

  • Track point-of-operation and machine-guarding findings.
  • Connect maintenance or engineering actions to the affected equipment.
  • Verify safeguards and monitor repeat findings on comparable machines.
02 / HOT WORK

Welding, Cutting & Hot-Work Safety

Keep hot-work hazards, exposure concerns, and controls connected.

Manage arc, MIG/TIG, robotic welding, plasma and oxy-fuel cutting, brazing, gouging, grinding, gas cylinders, welding fumes, ventilation, burns, sparks, and fire risk.

  • Connect the task to the material, coating, ventilation, and fire controls.
  • Track exposure, incident, and process findings with responsible owners.
  • Verify engineering, ventilation, and process controls in the work area.
03 / MATERIAL HANDLING

Crane, Rigging & Heavy-Metal Handling

Maintain visibility into lifting equipment, suspended loads, and material movement.

Manage overhead and gantry cranes, hoists, slings, chains, hooks, rigging, coils, plate, beams, pipe, structural steel, and fabricated assemblies.

  • Connect pre-use inspection defects to the crane, hoist, rigging, and load.
  • Track dropped-load and struck-by near misses and corrective actions.
  • Verify repairs or replacement before equipment returns to service.
04 / ENERGY CONTROL

LOTO & Stored-Energy Control

Connect hazardous-energy findings to the machine and service activity.

Manage electrical, hydraulic, pneumatic, mechanical, gravity, and stored energy associated with press maintenance, jam clearing, blade and die changes, CNC servicing, conveyor maintenance, and furnace maintenance.

  • Track energy sources and isolation concerns by equipment and task.
  • Document zero-energy verification and corrective actions.
  • Monitor repeat LOTO findings across comparable equipment and processes.
05 / INDUSTRIAL HYGIENE

Exposure & Industrial Hygiene Management

Connect exposure findings with the process and control that must change.

Manage welding fumes, metal fumes, grinding and metal dust, noise, heat, coating chemicals, solvents, and respiratory exposures across jobs and work areas.

  • Connect the worker, job, area, process, and exposure result.
  • Track sampling, monitoring, engineering and ventilation controls.
  • Support reassessment and trend monitoring for recurring exposures.
06 / HEAT & ENVIRONMENT

Foundry, Heat-Process & Environmental Safety

Bring high-temperature, treatment, and environmental findings into one record.

Manage melting furnaces, molten metal, casting, forging, heat treatment, quenching, hot-part handling, surface treatment, galvanizing, chemical findings, waste, and environmental spills or releases.

  • Track burn, splash, heat, furnace, and hot-material findings.
  • Connect treatment chemicals, exposure or spill events, and corrective controls.
  • Verify process or containment controls and monitor repeat findings.

See Where Risk Is Concentrating Across Your Metals & Fabrication Operations

EHS leaders need to know which machine, process, lifting activity, or exposure is creating recurring risk.

DEXUR connects incidents, exposures, inspections, machine findings, corrective actions, and verification records so leaders can compare similar presses, cranes, furnaces, welding operations, and fabrication processes across plants.

Find Answers to Metals & Fabrication Safety Questions

  • Which presses, press brakes, shears, or grinders have repeated safety findings?
  • Which welding areas have recurring fume, ventilation, burn, or hot-work issues?
  • Which cranes, hoists, slings, or rigging components generate repeated defects or near misses?
  • Which machines have recurring LOTO or stored-energy findings?
  • Which foundry, furnace, forging, or heat-treatment areas have repeated events?
  • Which galvanizing or surface-treatment areas generate recurring chemical findings?
  • Which corrective actions failed to prevent recurrence?
  • Do comparable machines or processes at other plants have the same hazard?

Measure the follow-through on metals safety

Track the Activities Behind Metals & Fabrication EHS Performance

Monitor the conditions and follow-through that show whether machine safeguards, hot-work controls, lifting equipment, hazardous-energy controls, exposure controls, and corrective actions are being addressed and verified.

KPI What It Helps You Monitor
Machine Guarding & Point-of-Operation Finding Rate Guarding, interlock, nip-point, rotating-component, and point-of-operation findings across machines and work cells.
Welding & Hot-Work Safety Event Rate Welding, cutting, burn, hot-work, and fire-related events across fabrication areas.
Welding Fume & Metal-Dust Exposure Finding Rate Exposure findings involving welding fumes, grinding dust, metal dust, and respiratory hazards.
Crane, Hoist & Rigging Safety Finding Rate Defects involving cranes, hoists, hooks, slings, chains, and rigging equipment.
LOTO & Stored-Energy Finding Rate Hazardous-energy findings involving presses, CNC machines, rolling equipment, conveyors, forging equipment, and furnaces.
Foundry & Heat-Process Safety Event Rate Burns, splash events, furnace findings, hot-material handling, casting, forging, and heat-treatment incidents.
Repeat Machine / Process Finding Rate Whether a previously corrected hazard returns on the same or comparable machine, process, furnace, crane, or work cell.

Review these indicators by plant, shop, process, work cell, equipment, task, and material to identify persistent issues and prioritize corrective action.

Every plant. Every process. One connected view.
