Safety

Risk assessment and hazard identification

Before implementing any safety measures, you need to identify potential risks, categorize hazards, and determine exposure levels.
Safety

Defining safety functions

Each machine function should have a corresponding safety measure. Common safety functions include Safe Torque Off (STO), Safe Stop (SS1), and Prevention of Unexpected Start (PUS).
Safety

Common cause failures (CCF) and mitigation

Common Cause Failures can impact multiple components simultaneously, leading to system-wide risks. Learn how to implement redundancy and monitoring.
