Millions of travellers and masses of luggage are transported and handled at airports every day. It’s vital that nothing goes wrong in these well-rehearsed procedures. This requires perfect co-ordination and absolute safety. http://www.pilz.com
Cable cars are now an indispensable form of transportation in winter sports areas and municipal transport systems. Whether travelling by funicular, aerial cableway or T-bar lift, passengers must always be transported safely.
Passenger cabins that “hover” up to several hundred metres above ground place huge demands on safety. When it comes to control technology, therefore, cable car manufacturers rely on failsafe PSS control technology or on the automation system PSS 4000 from Pilz.
This industry in particular uses large, interlinked machinery such as rolling mills, galvanisation plants or surface treatment equipment. These are often complex, for example requiring protection against an uncontrolled start-up, via LOTO (Lock Out – Tag Out) or a locked stop for example. http://www.pilz.com
Your safety partner Pilz offers reliable components and solutions that are already proven in wind energy. So you can benefit from the simple integration of our safety systems, remote diagnostic options, remote maintenance and rugged product types. We offer certified solutions (TÜV/BG/CE/UL/CCC/GOST) for worldwide use, which meet international regulations such as the Machinery Directive (2006/42/EC), IEC 61400 and guidelines published by Germanischer Lloyd. http://www.pilz.com
Pilz solutions provide clear benefits, particularly where standard-compliant speed monitoring is concerned. There are various options to choose from when implementing standard-compliant speed monitoring on wind turbines. Our control systems can be scaled for various encoder combinations, achieving safety levels up to PL d and PL e.
The standard series EN ISO 16092 consists of four parts. Part 1 describes the safety aspects common to all presses. Part 2 deals with mechanical presses, Part 3 with hydraulic presses and Part 4 with pneumatic presses. In accordance with the Machinery Directive, presses are subject in part to Annex IV. In other words, they are included among the ”hazardous machinery” with a special conformity procedure, which is based particularly on harmonised EN standards. EN ISO 16092 Part 1 and Part 3 have been harmonised since March 2019. The transition period ends in September 2021 for EN 692 and EN 13736 and in March 2021 for EN 693. http://www.pilz.com
This is not just a realistic self-appraisal; it also reflects the way the company is perceived by customers, suppliers and competitors.
The ability to come up with solutions, flexibility and competitiveness are qualities which do not apply to any other company within the „electronic pressure measurement technology sector“ better than they do to BD|SENSORS. http://www.bdsensors.de
Concentrating on the electronic pressure measurement technology segment of the market always has been and still is the basis for continuous growth; this approach is highly profitable and involves an acceptable level of risk.
Our solutions can be used on converting, separating or assembling machine tools. In the process we employ technologies that are established and certified worldwide. To provide an automation solution for your machine tool we offer a comprehensive portfolio ranging from safe sensor technology to control systems, operation and visualisation, through to drive technology. A comprehensive services portfolio such as risk analysis or verification of safety solutions complete the range. http://www.pilz.com
Whether it’s public transport or private railway, transportation of passengers or cargo – as a system integrator or end customer from the safety-related railway sector you will benefit from our many years’ experience in safe automation technology. We bring this experience to our railway technology solutions. http://www.pilz.com
Many railway infrastructure systems are outdated and in urgent need of modernisation. Modern, digital railway automation can improve the reliability of rail transport. To contribute to the modernisation and expansion of railway infrastructure, we are investing in open, industry-proven automation technology.
The project aims to develop a disruptive, inherently safe hardware-software platform for the design and deployment of human-robot collaboration (HRC) in manufacturing. By combining innovative sensor, drive and control technologies and integrating them into an open development environment, the ROSSINI platform will deliver a set of tools which will enable the dissemination of HRC applications. These technologies have been developed by market leaders in their field. Human operators and robots merge to become members of the same team, increasing job quality, production flexibility and productivity. http://www.pilz.com
Pilz has supported the ROSSINI project right from the start as technical manager. Pilz also looks after the fields of robotic manipulators and sensor development.
What was the motivation for getting involved in Rossini? “There is genuine added value for Pilz and its customers”, says Mr Castro and Mr Schweiker, the two Rossini project managers at Pilz. “It is important for us as a company to make a contribution to the current research and development in HRC and so support progress, particularly in the field of safety. What’s more, it’s important for us as developers to maintain a lively, cross-sector exchange among experts and world market leaders.
Faster, more flexible, safer – the increasing level of automation on plant and machinery means that the demands on production and protection systems are also increasing.
As a complete supplier for control and safety technology, Pilz can provide one-stop automation solutions. Pilz has extensive expertise in a wide range of applications. We’ll work with you to implement an optimum automation solution, taking into account all the standards and directives applicable worldwide. http://www.pilz.com
