Why many CE processes reach their limits when using traditional tools

Many risk assessments and CE documentation are produced using spreadsheets, text documents or ad hoc solutions. However, as complexity increases, teamwork becomes more prevalent and standards change, it becomes difficult to maintain an overview and implement all requirements in a transparent manner. Safexpert helps you to carry out these tasks in a structured and consistent manner.

The key tasks involved in developing safe and compliant products

Risk assessment as a key component of the CE process

Risk assessment is the most important step in the CE marking process. Safexpert supports designers of machinery, partly completed machinery, plant and electrical equipment in systematically carrying out the risk assessment in accordance with EN ISO 12100 – from the identification of hazards through to risk evaluation and the derivation and documentation of appropriate measures.

Systematic risk
assessment


Identification of hazards at risk areas, during different stages of life and in connection with various activities.

Risk assessment
using a risk graph

Assessment of the identified hazardous situations as a basis for further measures and decisions.

Derivation and
documentation

Recording of measures until sufficient risk reduction has been achieved, as well as transparent tracking of the processing status.

Status reports
and clarity

Clear analyses show where risks have not yet been sufficiently reduced.

Supportive assistance
functions

Determination of the required performance level or SIL, including interfaces to SISTEMA and the TIA Selection Tool.

Reuse
and efficiency

Storing frequently used solutions in central libraries to ensure consistent use in subsequent projects.

Documentation, reports
and re-use

Standardised printouts and reports of the risk assessment, as well as the ability to export them into common formats for use in technical documentation, operating instructions and assembly manuals.

Risk assessment is the most important part of the CE process


Safexpert helps you to carry this out in a structured, transparent and consistent manner. For greater legal certainty and with less effort.

CE Guide: A Step-by-Step Guide to CE

Safely through the CE process

Safexpert guides you step by step through the CE marking process for your product (machinery, partly completed machinery, electrical equipment) in accordance with:

  • Machinery Regulation (EU) 2023/1230 / Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC
  • Low Voltage Directive 2014/35/EU

Depending on the applicable regulation or classification (e.g. machine or partly completed machine), the system dynamically adapts to your requirements, helping you to ensure that no important points are overlooked and that you fulfil your CE obligations efficiently.

Included templates and checklists

To help you carry out the CE procedure as efficiently and in full compliance with the law as possible, Safexpert provides you not only with a range of features but also with templates (e.g. for declarations of conformity and declarations of incorporation) and checklists (e.g. for compiling the technical documentation, including operating instructions).

Structured and CE-focused standards management with Safexpert

  • How can a hazardous area be made safe? 
  • Does our solution or a template still reflect the state of the art? 

Standards play a very important role in answering these and other questions. Safexpert supports you in standards-compliant design, risk assessment and documentation.

Research, monitoring of current developments and templates

Research and selection of relevant standards

Targeted research into relevant standards in reliable data sources, as well as the structured filing of the standards used in the project.

Transparency regarding the status of standards and presumption of conformity

Display of status information such as validity, predecessor and successor documents, as well as information on presumption of conformity, based on official data from standards bodies and the European Commission.

Monitoring of currency and assessment of changes

Linking relevant standards to projects and safety measures to monitor compliance and automatically update projects. 

Digital analysis of changes to standards

Analysis of changes down to section level and a clear comparison of old and new requirements.

Intelligent reuse of projects

Automatic checking of copied projects and measures to ensure they are up to date, and the adoption of existing solutions without compromising legal certainty.

Access to full texts

Direct access to the full text of licensed standards, with intelligent links to the relevant standards body and without having to switch systems.

Carry out standardised tests and inspections

Available as an optional add-on, Safexpert helps you to carry out consistent testing and acceptance of machinery, partly completed machinery or other products. The benefits of standardised testing are:

  • Consistency and standardisation in inspection processes
  • Centralised management and updating of inspection point libraries
  • Selectable levels of inspection – When creating inspection point libraries, different levels of inspection can be specified to adapt the level of detail to the requirements of each situation.

You can find more information on standardised inspections with Safexpert here.
