How can the Safety Book from Axelent help you improve safety?
"I find no answers just cross references".
This is how many feel when it comes to CE marking, machine safety and all that is entailed with it. Reading cumbersome EU directives, researching standards, performing risk assessments appear to overwhelm them. This book is different – we hope you feel so too. It presents rules and regulations the “KISS”-way*, illustrating principles and solutions with lots of graphics. And what is best: You don’t have to read from front to back. Just scroll through the book and start with whatever catches your eye. Enjoy!
*KISS = Keep it short and simple

Common problems and ?
Confronted with the tasks around machine safety many shy off, saying “Heavy stuff not for me”. What is the main reason for this? Companies and individuals often lack sufficiently detailed information, know-how.
This in turn has two root causes:
- The information policy
Particularly on the part of standardization bodies, often still is presented in an unnecessarily complicated way. - Technical schools and universities
To this day educational facilities largely fail to integrate product compliance and safety issues into their education.
Axelent can do little to change those frame conditions, but we can – and will – do much to help you cope and progress. How? By simply providing the information you need.
Consider our brief answers to four key issues involved:
- Risk assessment
What is the most suitable method? - Standards research
When is it needed and how is it done? - Protective measures
Which are most suitable, what is required?
