Pilz Automation Technology has updated its range of
machinery safety courses to reflect the latest changes in legislation, as well as publishing a new booklet and course schedule for 2012.
With the withdrawal of EN 954-1 at the end of 2011, extra dates have been added for the course ‘Safety Design incorporating EN ISO 13849-1/EN 62061’ to cope with anticipated demand from Machine Builders and Users who need to change over to these successor standards with immediate effect. The 1, 2 and 4-day City & Guilds Machinery Safety Courses, which have recently been accredited by the National Skills Academy for Materials, Production and Supply, will also be running more frequently to cope with continuously high demand.
Further Machinery Safety courses available include:
- CE Marking & Machinery Regulations
- The Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC
- Electrical Machine Safety in Industrial Installations
Product-related training courses are also available for Pilz machinery safety products, including:
- PSS Programming
- PSS/SafetyBUS p Programming
- PSS Service and Troubleshooting
- PSS/SafetyBUS p Service and Troubleshooting
- PNOZmulti Basic Training
The Personal and Practical Touch
All scheduled courses take place at the Pilz training facilities in Corby, Northamptonshire. However, additional training can be provided at the customer's own premises. Furthermore, although Pilz trainers are highly qualified to address individual concerns throughout the scheduled courses, if a more customised approach is desired, courses tailored to meet specific Company needs are available on request.
The current range of Pilz machinery safety courses has evolved from more than 20 years of in-house expertise not only in training, but also in the practical application of standards by Pilz engineers and consultants when, for example, designing safety circuits and advising manufacturing companies on how to best comply with UK Regulations. The courses therefore offer practical insights and advice in addition to covering the essentials of current legislation.
Martin Palmer, the Training Manager at Pilz Automation comments “Despite the plethora of information available on the subject of Machinery Safety, I still believe that Machine Builders and Users appreciate the opportunity that our range of courses can offer to discuss and resolve individual concerns in a practical environment.”
