ANSI B11

ANSI B11 standards are joint standards, that were developed by associations such
as e.g. the Association for Manufacturing Technology (AMT) and the Robotic Indu-
stries Association (RIA).
The hazards of a machine are evaluated by means of a risk analysis/assessment.
Risk analysis is an important requirement in accordance with NFPA79, 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 sa-
fety class of the application in question.
