Information sheets from the various regulatory bodies
Safety-related measures to be implemented cannot always be derived from Direc-
tives, Standards and Regulations. In this case, supplementary information and ex-
planations are required.
As part of their function, some regulatory bodies issue publications on an ex-
tremely wide range of subjects. Information sheets are, for example, available on
the following subjects:
S Process monitoring in production environments
S Axes that can fall due to gravity
S Roller pressing machines
S Lathes and turning centers – purchasing/selling
These information sheets handling specific subjects and issues can be ordered
from all parties interested – e.g. for providing support in operations, when draw-
ing-up regulations or for implementing safety-related measures at machines, plants
and systems. These information sheets provide support in machinery construction,
production systems, steel construction.
The information sheets can be downloaded from the following Internet addresses:
