RESEARCH
Recording of all relevant standards and directives for the machine type and safety functions.
First, we obtain an overview of all relevant standards and directives for your machine type and its safety functions - on site, at your machine.
We advise and support you in correctly assessing whether your machine conforms to the directives.
Want to improve your knowledge? Then attend our seminars on the Machinery Directive, the CE declaration of conformity and liability issues or the fundamental principles of functional safety.

RISK ASSESSMENT
Identifying and assessing hazards in accordance with EN ISO 12100.
A detailed risk assessment on your machine is essential to developing the safety concept. It forms the basis for the hardware selection and ensures integration in compliance with the standards.
The risk assessment is based on EN ISO 12100 and is included as a document in the CE declaration of conformity.
We assist you with the risk assessment and advise you on site.
Want to build your own know-how on this subject? Then attend our seminars on the fundamental principles of functional safety or on the retrofit of old machines.

SAFETY CONCEPT
Development of the safety concept on the basis of the risk assessment in accordance with EN ISO 13849-1 for hazard points.
We use the risk assessment to prepare for you a detailed safety concept in accordance with EN ISO 13849-1 for hazard points. At the same time, we determine the performance level required for the technical safeguards and make recommendations for possible risk reduction measures on this basis – maintaining productivity all the while.
If you would like to improve your knowledge in this area, attend our seminars on CESE or CSE and become a TÜV certified functional safety expert!

VALIDATION
Validation of the technical protective equipment on the machine.
The technical protective equipment is validated on your machine directly. In the process, we check whether the safety-related protective equipment is operating in accordance with EN ISO 13849. The specifications of the safety requirements for the machine must also be fulfilled.
If you want to improve your knowledge of this subject, then attend our seminars on the validation of safety user software or on the inspection of optoelectronic protective devices.

EVALUATION AND FINAL REPORT
Evaluation of technical safeguards and documentation in the final report.
At the final evaluation, we provide you with detailed feedback on the documentation and on the correct implementation of the safety-related safeguards.
OUR CONSULTING SERVICES
INSPECTION / PERIODIC TESTING
Inspection of the technical safeguards on the machine.
The first inspection is performed when your machine is commissioned. In order to guarantee safety going forward, we carry out periodic inspections during machine operation – the so-called overrun traverse measurement.
Please also visit our seminars on retrofitting and inspecting OPDs.
