Machinery safety legislation - recent changes and what they mean

The machinery safety landscape is ever evolving bringing with it a raft of changes to current legislation to cope with issues such as increasing digitisation and flexibility requirements. Speaking at MachineBuilding.North, Pilz machinery safety specialist Alex Bryce summarises the changes.

Machinery safety legislation - recent changes and what they mean

(See Pilz at MachineBuilding.Live, 15 October 2025, on stand 212)

In this presentation, he covers the migration of the Machinery Directive to the Machinery Regulation plus standards such as ISO 13849, IEC 62061 and ISO 14119, and explains what these mean in practical terms to machine builders and end-users alike.

In particular, he focuses on which changes have been implemented, which changes are upcoming, which changes are relevant to your business, which actions need to be taken right now, and which actions need to be planned for future changes.

Pilz is also exhibiting and presenting a workshop at MachineBuilding.Live on 15 October at the National Agricultural Exhibition centre. You can find out more and register to attend here.
