Read More"the safe speed feature is one component of an overall laser guarding system and would not provide effective and reliable protection to workers from point of operation hazards as a primary machine guarding device. As such, we do not recognize the independent use of the safe speed feature as compliant with 29 CFR 1910.212.
Read MoreThe safety guard is generally satisfactory for this purpose on single speed machines. On variable speed machines, the speed shifting device should be connected with an adjustable guard or another diameter limiting device to prevent the mounting of a wheel which might run at higher than the recommended surface speed.
Read MoreFunctional safety standards EN/IEC 62061 and EN/ISO 13849-1 ensure safety via electronic solutions, unlike traditional safety systems, which used electromechanical components to achieve safety. And while functional safety applies to a machine and its control system (not to individual components), the drive lies at the heart of the safety implementation.
