Plcs are all over the place for sure

We would be out of plugs in 2 shifts if we did that, and providing PPE is the production department's job, not ours.

fanuc?

Damn what industry u in

We make solar panels. We are one of the most automated, high speed factories for it in the world, or at least we are supposed to be.

dude you can't just sit in a loud ass factory all day and blame management when your hearing starts to go

@Red Korvo How often do you see a liveleak watermark pop up over your head?

grab a headset, fuck the plugs

I would feel autistic about wearing them anywhere else but you're actually in a setting where ear pro is needed

That's why I'm working on finding an old pair of Comtacs.

Oh aight yeah that makes sense

I'm surprised you ain't heard of fanuc

lool Comtacs

What brand of robots y'all running

just get a $50 headset

Chinese shit.

I see

The eternal chinaman

instead of a $300 headset that will get stolen or destroyed

Or do you mean ROBOT robots? As in the arms?

comtacs aren't the best ear pro tbh

as opposed to not robot robots

I figured it would be better to buy a nice pair that I could eventually use for shooting too.

especially with the "Better" gel cups that make it bearable to wear for long periods of time

Where I work, robot specifically means robot arm.

comtacs are primarily for comms and situational awareness, not to keep your ears protected tbh

its not even the comfort

a lot of the "comms" type headsets don't offer great protection

I was going to get a wrap around pad for the headband. And I need to be able to hear people around me.

This has to be learned helplessness

do people typically wear earplugs under comtacs

yes

no

I have impact pros, I used to wear winchesters

....don't comtacs literally protect from gunshots?

🤔

yeah but they offer.... 18 db protection?

i think it's like 24

but not great

If you turn them off yeah

@AnEvalach What part is learned helplessness? Because I'm feelin some of that and it ain't easy to fight off.
