Thank you for all of your comments relating to interlocks. Your
comments have been a great help.
In addition to our line of laboratory equipment, we manufacture some
saws and grinders to prepare samples of metal for analysis. Several of
these fall under the Machinery Directive. In my search for interlocks
and safety relays, I found a company called Pilz. They are a big PLC
manufacturer in Germany and have a line of Safety relays.
They pro
vi
ded me a software package called the Interactive Guide to Machinery
Safety, and a book called a Guide to the Machinery Safety Standard.
These ha
ve
been a great resource for me, and I would recommend them to anyone
who deals with the Machinery Directive.
They have a US office in Michigan, phone (810) 473-1133, FAX
(810)473-3997, and a UK office, phone 0 15 36/46 07 66.
Thanks again for all of the great information on this newsgroup.
