Avoid Safety Risks
Ensure Compliance with Safety Regulations
The new Machinery Regulation (applicable January 20, 2027) makes SOTIF-like thinking essential. It introduces new Essential Health and Safety Requirements (EHSRs) for AI and machine learning in control systems. Machines must stay safe as their logic evolves and manage unforeseen situations without hazards. Safety components, including software, must be validated in the full machine context. The focus shifts from component failures (FuSa) to performance limits and unpredictable interactions, making SOTIF central to compliance.
Functional safety ensures that machines remain safe even when software or AI systems encounter faults. For off-highway and industrial vehicles, this means control logic must detect, prevent, or mitigate failures that could create hazards. Safety mechanisms must perform reliably under real operating conditions, and software must be validated in the context of the entire system. The focus is on preventing accidents caused by software or AI malfunctions, making functional safety central to compliance with standards such as ISO 26262 and IEC 61508.
We ensure both functional safety and safety of the intended functionality for off-highway and industrial vehicles. Our team helps you stay compliant with current regulations and prepared for future ones. With deep engineering expertise, we support you in implementing the required standards, while also providing consulting and training for your teams. The standards we cover are:
-
-
EU Machinery Regulation (EU) 2023/1230
-
ISO/IEC TR 5469:2022
-
IEC 61508, IEC 61508, ISO 13849, ISO 19014
-
ISO 26262, ISO 21448 (SOTIF)
-
ISO/PAS 8800, ISO 25119
