SYSTEMATIC PROCESSES AND EXTENSIVE KNOW-HOW OF GUIDLINES ENSURE MAXIMUM SECURITY

Safety services for the implementation of the machine guideline
Safety of machines at the work place is an essential part of economic production and legal safety. tmp GmbH automation & engineering reliably leads your machinery to CE-conformity. With our safety services for new and old machinery according to the machine guideline MRL/2006/42/EG and other relevant guidelines. 
After an in-depth analysis our certified functional safety engineers will ensure the professional implementation of the required measures. In detail these include the risk assessment, documentation according to the CE-conformity and the installation and commissioning of the individual parts.

Risk assessment according to DIN EN ISO 12100 to the machinery guideline
The first step to a safe machine is the risk assessment according to DIN EN ISO 12100. Only the extensive assessment of all potential risks allows the right measures to be taken and the risk to be minimized. tmp GmbH automation & engineering offers the reliable assessment for new machines and those already in process. This will contain every phase of the machines lifetime and operating modes that are typical for the machine and its risks.
 
The overall risk is the mathematical product of the factor’s probability and magnitude of damage.

Systematic optimization of the safety of machinery
After the risk assessment we will present to you the developed safety concept for minimizing risks at the workplace. At this point we differentiate between separating and non-separating measures. Adjusted to your individual operation concept we will find the most suitable solutions in cooperation with you. The following safety measure can be chosen:
 

• Fences, barriers, enclosures
• Doors, flaps, rolling gates
• Light curtains/barriers, muting, laser scanners, camera systems 
• Safety mats, switch buttons/bumpers
• 2-hand switches, Two-hand controls

Examination and validation
The functionality of all technical safety measures needs to be inspected. This service is done by our certified assessors. The successful inspection will be certified and documented by a badge on the machine which also contains the relevant information for the time of the next examination.
 
At the end we will check every taken safety measures and compare them to the set security concept and the risk assessment. If both sides add up and are fully functional the machine can be validated. Afterwards the machine is free to be taken into process.
 
Our process is tested and trusted and can therefore supply the necessary security to your company.

Delaytime measurements
Delaytime measurements are required when machines are equipped with non-contact or two-handed switch as a safety measure. For these measures to function properly, we need to identify the right, guideline regulated distance to the potentially dangerous movement of the machine. To find that distance that ensures the safety of the operating employee, the calculation formula set by the guideline has to be used.
 
To use that calculation formula, the delaytime has to be known. Our Assessors can find that strictly after DIN EN ISO 13855 and with the help of our TimeInspector, a specially developed equipment for that use. In addition to the measurement, an examination report is required. tmp GmbH automation & engineering is very familiar with this process since several years and manage the challenges of delaytime measurements confident.

Machine documentation according to MRL attachment VII
The machine guideline MRL 2006/42/EG requests the creation and supply of technical machine documents. This includes new machines and those already in process. In addition, every change und adjustment to the machine needs to documented. 
We support you with the implementation of these standards by creating:
 

• Electronic circuit diagrams
• Fluid plans
• Operating manuals
• Risk assessment 
• Validation protocols 
• Delaytime measurements
• Examination of DGUV regulation
• Preparation for the declaration of CE -conformity

 
Trust in our extensive competence in reliability in terms of documentation.umfassende Kompetenz und Zuverlässigkeit in puncto Dokumentation.

Coaching for the machine guideline
You can have the benefit from our extensive know-how and long-term experience. Our highly qualified engineers and technicians bring their wide-ranging theoretical and practical expertise into seminars and trainings. This is where practitioners learn from practitioners.
 
We can coach your employees to the implementation of the machine guideline. Legally safe and practically orientated. Your employees will learn about the creation of risk assessments, finding an economically justifiable safety concept as wells the whole way to CE-conformity by the usage of the correct guidelines and regulations.
