]]> Developed by the CEMA Engineering Conference Unit Handling Safety Committee, this publication outlines four common crossover types—ladder and stair configurations, at conveyor height and over the conveyed load—and explains where each is most appropriately applied. It addresses human factors, general design parameters, mechanical safety considerations, and control requirements, with references to applicable ANSI, OSHA, and ISO standards.

Included are clear definitions, application guidance, and a general crossover selection chart to help engineers, system designers, and safety professionals evaluate crossover options based on conveyor type, traffic level, and usage. The document emphasizes reducing unsafe crossing behavior and improving workplace safety through proper crossover placement and design.
