Fuji Electric's Approach to Machinery Safety and Functional Safety - Total Safety

摘要

Serious accidents involving machinery and industrial plants have occurred one after another recently, and society's concern for improving safety and security has heightened. To establish safety and security requires a wide range of applied technology, such as the prediction of sources of harm, preventative maintenance for equipment, plant security, electronic recording of system data and so on. Meanwhile, new techniques for ensuring safety at the equipment design and system design stage have been standardized systematically in the form of machinery safety and functional safety.
