Machinery Functional Safety

CTF can provide TUV trained solutions for your key functional safety requirements offering both design and validation services.

The aim of Functional Safety provides the avoidance of systematic failures including the control of systematic and random failures in safety related operations, thus preventing injury or death and catastrophic environmental effects.

This also ensures compliance to the Machinery, Low Voltage and EMC Directives. Also, standards harmonised under the EU machinery Directive.
