Support for creating equipment safety specifications.

We will assist you in creating safety specifications for the equipment.

In companies where a Quality Management System (QMS) is established, there are safety specifications for equipment, and I believe there are no particular issues. However, considering a situation where such systems are not in place, I will provide references on what should be considered for safety. There are fundamental principles for ensuring the safety of machinery to effectively prevent mechanical hazards. These are the three principles: 1. Principle of inherent safety: Eliminate hazardous areas (hazard sources) of the machinery or reduce them to a level that does not cause harm to people. For example, rounding off corners or reducing operational energy. 2. Preventing human access or contact with hazardous sources of machinery. For example, installing guards such as fences or enclosures. 3. Principle of stopping: Generally, if the machinery is stopped, it poses no danger. Therefore, if a person needs to enter the operational range of the machinery, it should be stopped using interlocks or permission should be granted only after stopping. In creating safety specifications for equipment, it is necessary to adhere to the above three fundamental principles and to consider the specific content of the equipment in question, developing and documenting the specifications in a more concrete manner.
