This document discusses standards for machine safety design. It notes that EN 954-1 will be replaced and a new probabilistic approach will be required under the updated Machine Directive. The new standards like ISO 13849-1 and IEC 62061 take a more comprehensive approach to functional safety management, software testing, validation and verification. They also consider probabilities of failure where EN 954-1 focused only on structural design and reliability. Proper implementation of harmonized safety standards provides presumption of conformity with the Machine Directive.
