Safety & Support

A Foundation for Documenting Machine & Equipment Safety

Documenting machine and equipment safety measures is essential to ensuring a safe work environment for employees and reducing the risk of accidents and injuries. We prioritize promptly identifying and addressing potential hazards and facilitating employee understanding and training on safe operating practices. This proactive approach to safety documentation benefits workers and helps companies comply with legal requirements and avoid costly penalties.

Alexander’s Comprehensive Skill Set in Safety & Support

Our team of experts collaborates closely with our customers to understand and clarify machine and equipment safety needs throughout design and development. We document safety systems utilizing our standard Risk Assessment and Safety Validation processes and perform analyses and calculations to identify and correct areas of non-compliance. Upon project completion, we work with A&A TUV-certified Functional Safety Engineers to ensure that customer control systems and machine designs meet all safety requirements.

• Standards Compliance/Assessment to ensure machine and equipment safety are meeting OSHA 29 CFR 1910 requirements utilizing IEC-60204, IEC 62061, ISO 13849, and ISO-12100. Safety considerations are essential early in design and development to avoid costly rework.
• Safety Validation Creation helps keep personnel safe. We write documentation and design/analyze safety circuits to evaluate the effectiveness of existing or new circuits to ensure that they are reliable and meet safety standards while working as designed.
• Risk Assessments include calculating performance levels, or Safety Integrity Levels (SIL), determining the level of risk associated with a machine or equipment, and identifying the required safety measures to mitigate that risk.
• Installation & Startup Support often includes our Machine Safety Training Program with testing to ensure technical mastery as well as our field services to identify hazards and design solutions to mitigate them.
• Automation offers opportunities to prevent or reduce the severity of potential injuries. We develop and write Safety Circuits that can detect potential hazards and trigger safety measures to prevent accidents.
