Functional safety
In the context of increasingly complex automation requirements, functional safety provides the foundation for protecting people and the environment. The integration of safe design and control elements serves as the basis for flexible, yet safe machine processes (or movements).
SAFETY IN MACHINES AND SYSTEMS
certified functions from a big modular system
From the safe release of movement to safe speed or position monitoring, KEB provides a broadly differentiated package for implementing sensor-actuated and sensorless safety in movement axes from 0.75 to 450 kW.
The coordination tasks of the different requirements are handled by the safety controller which, as a modular assembly in the I/O system, can be combined with all IPC-based function controls via safe data exchange.
Safety controller
As an integral part of machine automation, the safety controller monitors, manages and coordinates the functional and motion sequences. The safe programming and parameter assignment required for this form part of the automation platform.
Fieldbus communication
Safe fieldbus communication and safe I/O modules receive and release commands and data.
Integrated safety functions
Drive electronics with integrated safety functions control, regulate and monitor sensor-actuated and sensorless motion processes.
Motors and gear motors
Machine and system components are driven by synchronous or asynchronous motors and gear motors with integrated, safe speed measurement.
Brakes
Closed-current brakes with emergency stop properties bring rotating shafts to a halt and hold them in position.

What exactly does functional safety mean? What relevance does it have in plant and machine manufacturing? And what are the ways and means of ensuring the highest possible level of safety for people and the environment? Answers to these and other questions can be found in the white paper "Functional Safety: Realised with KEB Automation". We take you into the world of functional safety and show you how controls, frequency inverters or even (gear) motors can contribute to increased safety.
These and other topics can be expected:
- Safety in your machines and plants
- Integrated safety functions & fieldbus communication
- Application-specific safety functions
- Safe (gear) motors
- Brakes with emergency stop features

Functional Safety - succesfully in use in these areas of application
TEXTILE MACHINES
KEB offers innovative system solutions in the entire production and process chain – from the processing of the raw materials and fibres to the yarn in the spinning mill. Whether in the bale opener, in the cleaner, in the preparation for surface production during winding, twisting, warping and sizing or in the final weaving, knitting, crocheting or knitting: KEB products are in use from the yarn to the fabric.
MATERIAL LIFTS
Moving high loads while meeting the requirements for operational safety, torque behaviour, energy efficiency and grid friendliness of the systems – this and more is made possible by the powerful combinations of geared motors and drive electronics from KEB in the area of goods lifts.
ELEVATORS & ESCALATORS
KEB Elevator drives are built to handle the most difficult and demanding elevator and escalator applications. Integrated brake handling and proven motor control provide excellent ride quality. High overloads and protective features provide years of trouble-free operation.
