A primer on the newly updated ISO 12100 machine safety standard, the three types of standards it encompasses, and how it helps designers identify risks during the design stage of machine production, reducing the potential for accidents. ISO (ISO 12100) specifies basic terminology, principles, and a methodology for achieving safety in the design of machinery. It specifies principles of risk assessment and risk reduction to help designers achieve this objective. These principles are based on knowledge and experience of the design, use, incidents, accidents, and risks associated with machinery.

Within the standard, procedures are described for identifying hazards and estimating and evaluating risks during relevant phases of the machine life cycle, and for the elimination of hazards or sufficient risk reduction. Guidance is given on the documentation and verification of the risk assessment and risk reduction process. Download Nada Dering Lucu Terbaru 2016.

ISO 12100 defines three types of standards representing different levels of granularity: type A standards establish general, overarching guiding principles, type B standards have specific design principles for a specific technology, and type C standards are application-specific standards. “A type A standard itself, ISO 12100 is also intended to be used as a basis for the preparation of type B and type C safety standards,” says Thomas Maier, principal engineer, functional safety at Underwriters Laboratories (UL).
