In practice, you can hardly avoid safety issues relating to pneumatic components, such as technical documentation or risk assessment. The Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC as the basis for the functional safety of machinery is the authoritative guideline, and the harmonized standard EN ISO 13849 is also relevant. The good news: Festo is a competent partner to help in all cases.
In our large selection of helpful webinars, you will definitely learn how:

Machine safety - using pneumatic vertical axes safely

Machine safety - solutions with the MPA valve terminal

Machine safety - the correct use of MS6-SV valves

Reliable safety technology is of great importance in factory automation and the process industry. Machines must be designed in such a way that people, animals and property as well as the environment are protected from damage. In our webinar, we will clearly demonstrate the advantages of centralized and decentralized solution approaches using the example of pneumatic transfer of small components. In this very practical workshop, our experienced application engineers Bastian Behnke and Hans-Jürgen Fritz will show you the advantages of different strategies, both in the implementation of safety functions and the selection of control components.

Pneumatic vertical movements place high demands on machine safety. Without suitable protection, uncontrolled movements can occur that endanger processes and safety. Classic solutions such as 5/3 directional control valves or pilot-operated non-return valves offer a shut-off function, but also have their weaknesses - especially when it comes to diagnostics. Faults often go unnoticed. With the new VBOC shut-off valves, Festo is setting new standards in the safe shut-off and monitoring of pneumatic movements.
