Safe drive applications can be easily programmed using PLCopen-compatible function blocks from B&R with SafeDESIGNER in Automation Studio.

This allows the implementation of safety levels up to Cat. 4 / PL e / SIL 3.
This allows fixed wiring to be replaced by safe data transfer via the existing machine bus system. Flexibly configured or programmed safety behavior can be adapted optimally to various safety situations.

Safe Operating Stop, Safely Limited Speed and Safe Homing are important functions for a safe machine.

The exercises are carried out on the ETA system. An ETA Light system (ETAL510.1000-1 (or similar) with accessories) and an ETA system (ETA540.0101-132 with accessories) are required.
