We make your machine safe<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Functional safety is much more than simply selecting a safe control system. What matters most is the interaction of the entire control loop\u2014from sensors, controllers, and software, through hydraulics and actuators, to the machine architecture. At the same time, the requirements vary considerably depending on the type of machine, its application, and the safety function. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

V\u00d6LKEL supports you from the very beginning in developing your safety concept: from planning and implementation of safety-related functions through to commissioning and acceptance testing by technical inspection organizations such as T\u00dcV or DEKRA. This results in safe, practical, and cost-effective solutions for construction machinery, agricultural machinery, forestry machinery, municipal machinery, and special-purpose machinery. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Your benefit: An experienced partner for the functional safety of your entire machine\u2014from the initial concept to successful certification.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
