Functional safety in modern factory automation

28 July 2026
English (United States)
In many automation set-ups, safety still operates on a simple on/off binary – the machine is either running, or it isn’t. This means when human operators need access to the space around the machine, power is completely cut and all motion comes to a halt until they leave again and the system is reset.

28 July 2026
German
Starre Sicherheitskonzepte bremsen in der Automatisierung oft die Produktivität. Oft gilt noch immer das Alles-oder-Nichts-Prinzip: Betritt eine Person den Arbeitsbereich, wird die komplette Anlage abgeschaltet. Das kostet wertvolle Zeit und unterbricht den Produktionsfluss bis zum vollständigen Neustart.
