On Saturday, April 4, around 10:00 AM, a devastating accident shook the local community: 73-year-old Roberto Gavioli lost his life when a crane\u2019s mechanical arm suddenly failed. His 39-year-old son, Davide, who was with him in the aerial platform&#8217;s basket, was seriously injured in the fall.<\/p>\n\n<p>According to initial reconstructions by authorities at the scene in Via Circondaria, the father and son were carrying out routine maintenance on their home. They had ascended to a height of approximately eleven meters to reach the roof\u2014likely to clean the gutters or fix some tiles\u2014when the vehicle&#8217;s load-bearing structure suddenly gave way. The mechanical arm reportedly snapped off from the truck&#8217;s base, sending both men and the platform plunging to the ground.<\/p>\n\n<p>The impact with the ground was extremely violent. Emergency responders could do nothing for Roberto Gavioli, a well-known and respected local carpenter; he was pronounced dead at the scene. His son, Davide, was airlifted to Baggiovara Hospital, where he is currently in intensive care with a guarded prognosis.<\/p>\n\n<p>The Carabinieri, the Fire Department, and occupational health and safety officials arrived at the scene of the tragedy to conduct the technical investigations necessary to determine the exact cause of the mechanical failure.<\/p>\n\n<div style=\"height:28px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-vivid-cyan-blue-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-892725c426ca23d0885c004ea1921f33\"><strong>ECM: TECHNICAL SUPPORT FOR SAFETY<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n<p>In this context, <b data-path-to-node=\"2,0\" data-index-in-node=\"18\">ECM<\/b> acts as a qualified partner to support companies in achieving and maintaining machinery compliance, helping to reduce risks and safeguard workers&#8217; lives.
