Özet
This study was conducted to examine risk levels for Vaporizing Foil Actuator Welding (VFAW) prototype manufacturing and applications. A risk analysis was carried out by using the L-type matrix method to detect hazards and risks in newly developing VFAW applications. 60 risks were identified for VFAW, 37 of which were high and 23 were moderate. To reduce the risk and occupational accidents to the lowest possible level; a measuring instrument that can continuously monitor current and voltage values, a remote detonation system and a discharge mechanism have been added to the prototype system. Thanks to the measures taken the situations that may result in serious accidents, fire, explosion, loss of limb, and even death that may occur during the experiment have been brought under control and VFAW applications have been made safer.
