Automation of production lines

The automation engineers of de KLOKSLAG develop control software, build industrial control cabinets, perform all installation work and commission control systems.

They know exactly how to do this. It is in their genes, this knowledge of PLC and SCADA control software, drive technology, hydraulics, pneumatics and servo drives. Because there are often requirements for speed because of cycle times, PLC controls from Siemens, among others, are used.

To protect employees from dangerous situations, machine safety is of great importance in the construction and management of machines and installations. For the engineers of de KLOKSLAG this is self-evident: we provide risk inventory and evaluation (RI&E), guide CE trajectories, solve safety issues and design, verify and validate safety controls.

A guide to legal directives
Every machine brought onto the market or into use within the EU must comply with safety and health regulations. This is not optional.
In the Netherlands, the machinery directives are laid down by law in the Commodities Act Decree for machinery.


Assess and reduce risks
We also carry out risk assessments for existing, modified or new machinery on assignment. With electrical devices such as light curtains, safety switches or hold-to-run switches, KLOKSLAG can reduce identified risks where necessary, using the PL (Performance Level) and SIL (Safety Integrity Level) safety level classifications. When we deliver our installations, documents for the Technical Construction File are already included immediately.

Advice on certification
Following modifications to machinery, CE certification often needs to be re-certified. Employees of de KLOKSLAG can advise and support in this.
