How can the Safety Book from Axelent help you to improve safety?
"I find no answers just cross references".
This is how many feel when it comes to CE marking, machine safety and all that is entailed with it. Reading cumbersome EU directives, researching standards and performing risk assessments seems overwhelming. This book is different – we hope you feel so too. It presents rules and regulations the “KISS” way*, illustrating principles and solutions with lots of graphics. You also don’t have to read from front to back, just scroll through the book and start with whatever catches your eye. Enjoy!
*KISS = Keep it short and simple
Together towards a safer environment
Common problems and ?
When confronted with machine safety tasks, many believe it is too complicated. What's the main reason behind this? Both companies and individuals often lack the detailed information and expertise required.
Why?
- The information policy
Particularly on the part of standardisation bodies, the information often still is presented in an unnecessarily complicated way. - Technical schools and universities
To this day, educational facilities largely fail to integrate product compliance and safety issues into their education.
Axelent can do little to change those frame conditions, but we can and will, help you progress and understand. How? By simply providing the information you need.
It is time to consider three key issues involved:
- Risk assessment
What is the most suitable method? - Standards research
When is it needed and how is it done? - Protective measures
Which are most suitable, what is required?
