ANSI B11

ANSI B11 standards are joint standards developed by associations such as the Association
for Manufacturing Technology (AMT) and the Robotic Industries Association (RIA).
The hazards of a machine are evaluated by means of a risk analysis/assessment. The risk
analysis is an important requirement in accordance with NFPA 79, ANSI/RIA 15.06, ANSI
B11.TR-3 and SEMI S10 (semiconductors). The documented findings of a risk analysis can
be used to select a suitable safety system based on the safety class of the application in
question.
