Safety controllers are a category of industrial control devices designed to ensure safe operation of machinery and equipment. These controllers are typically manufactured by specialized companies in the automation and safety industry, such as Siemens (Germany), Rockwell Automation (USA), or Pilz (Germany). They serve critical roles in manufacturing, robotics, and process automation by monitoring safety signals, executing emergency stops, and preventing hazardous machine states. Key products include safety relays, programmable safety controllers, and safety-rated PLCs. These components comply with international safety standards like ISO 13849 and IEC 62061, helping industries maintain workplace safety while optimizing productivity.
