摘要

As a controls process engineer at Kuka Flexible Production Systems, an automotive system integrator based in Sterling Heights, Mich., Brown, was well aware of the way that factory safety systems bad traditionally been built with hard wiring and safety relays. It was an approach mandated by long-standing North American safety standards. So it was a surprise for Brown in 2003 when he learned through a vendor that the rules of the game recently had changed. Revisions made in 2002 to NFPA 79-the National Fire Protection Association standard covering electrical equipment in industrial machinery-had legitimized use of certain "software and firmware-based controllers" as an alternative to hard-wired safety solutions. The change opened the door for use of certified safety programmable logic controllers (PLCs) and associated safety fieldbus networks. Both technologies had been deployed for several years in Europe, but at the time, were little used and largely unknown in the United States.
