The roller machines installed in the industrial field are operated under hazardous conditions due to no safety devices available, human error during operation, defective safety devices, and inadequate regulation even in case that safety devices are provided. Up to now, most roller machines installed in domestic field are provides with band breaking system as a safety device. In this study, the emergency stop distance is measured within the limit of domestic regulation but violates a foreign regulation(EN1417). Consequently, it is concluded that the roller machines with a band breaking system have high possibility of death or serious injury of the operator and the system should be improved with the introduction of additional safety devices. This thesis suggests the safety measures suitable for the roller machines with different drive systems based on the experiment results. The use of the newly developed safety system has been tested on many cases.
