Machinery safety step by step

Machinery safety step by step Objectives of safety technology use In today´s industrial production, more and more complex machines and technical systems are used. On the one hand, safety technology use should exclude danger for people, environment and machines or at least reduce it to an acceptable level. On the other hand, the availability of machines and production facilities should not be more limited than absolutely necessary. Thus, basic objectives for safety technology use are: • voidance of accidents which can be caused by incorrect a behavior of machines or people • reventive health protection...

Machinery safety    with Baumüller

Machinery safety with Baumüller A guideline for safety of machinery The European machine manufacturers and users must comply to the safety requirements of the standard EN ISO 13849, which has come into force. The standard is supposed to offer an uniform level throughout Europe for the protection of individuals, the environment and the systems against technical errors or operating errors. This is supposed to be performed without affecting the productivity of the machines and installations and is the responsibility of the machine manufacturers as well as of the users. In the Safety Lifecycle Navigator...

Open platform for functional safety technology The Safety Alliance is an association of automation manufacturers, technology and solution providers, specialists and service providers for functional safety technology. With the formation of the Safety Alliance, the proven concept of an open technology platform, based on scalable and interoperable software components, becomes a comprehensive solution architecture for functional safety. Leading automation manufacturers, solution providers, service providers and users of safety technology complement each other’s competencies with regard to marketing,...

n SAFETY BAUMULLER allianceAdvice and support on the way to the safe machine The Safety Lifecycle Navigator is an overview document for better understanding the processes related to the "safe machine" using a specific example. You will learn, among other things, that "following recipe instructions" is unfortunately not possible in the field of machinery safety. Each safety solution is as unique as the machine, for which it is implemented. This way, a customized safety concept is developed, step by step, from one waypoint to the next. Many steps on the way to the safe machine will become easier...

Navigation through the Safety Lifecycle

Navigation through the safety lifecycle Your starting point - the example machine Figure 1: Example machine without safety equipment The example machine displayed in Figure 1 is the starting point of our considerations. It is a lathe used for machining workpieces that are fixed by clamping jaws in a fast rotating tool. Workpieces are to be clamped and adjusted regularly before each new machining process. The example machine is displayed without installed safety measures. This simplified example shows the individual steps on the way to the safe machine. Nevertheless, the display is complete as...
