Recorded Webinars: Tackling Functional Safety Management for Machinery
Functional safety management is critical for managing and mitigating systematic failures that can occur throughout the safety lifecycle. Implementing a robust functional safety management plan following the requirements of IEC 62061 and ISO 13849 (new suggested functional safety management steps added in the 2023 release) can improve the consistency of functional safety lifecycle steps and help to ensure the accuracy of the work performed. This webinar will cover the importance of functional safety management for machinery applications, cover trends exida has identified from working with many different organizations in the machinery industry, and guidance on how to use templates as a spring board for developing an effective functional safety management plan.
Blog Entry: Benefits of Using IEC 62061 Machine Safety Templates
Why would someone consider purchasing templates as a starting point? First off, it decreases the amount of time and energy it takes to build out the program. If you think about starting from a blank page, as opposed to starting with something that is 80 to 90% of the way…

Recorded Webinars: Safety Lifecycle Overview with exSILentia (Part 2) - Design and Implementation Phase (2023)
The Functional Safety Lifecycle as defined by IEC 61511 provides a method to analyze a process then design and implement a safety instrumented system to protect again high risk hazard scenarios. To perform each task effectively requires a good understanding of any analysis or design done beforehand. Part 2 of this webinar focuses on the design and implementation phase of the lifecycle. We will review SIL Verification, Cost Optimization, Design Safety Requirement Specification and more using the exSILentia Safety Lifecycle Suite.
