This book aims to provide you with the knowledge to tackle machinery safety control problems at a basic and practical level whilst following the best available international standards.
The book begins with an overview of machinery safety issues, introducing the concepts of hazard identification and risk reduction.
The book looks at the risk assessment processes used to identify hazards and to quantify the risks inherent in a machine.
The book then introduces the concepts of safety categories as defined by standard EN 954 and illustrates the principles of failsafe design, fault tolerance and self-testing.
