Don't fall behind in the age of automation
AGVs and Robots are no longer the future - they're the now. As these technologies become regular fixtures on factory floors, understanding the safety standards that govern their operation is no longer optional - it's essential. Which is why Pilz is running two new expert-led AGV and robot courses.
(See Pilz at Machine Building North, 13 May 2026, on stand 62)
Safety Requirements and Integration of AGVs is an advanced level course held on Tuesday 17 March and Tuesday 7 July. This course is designed for those working with AGVs, AGV systems and AMRs in industrial environments. It covers the latest safety standards - including ISO 3691-4 - and provides practical guidance on risk assessment, hazard reduction, and safe system integration.
Robot Safety and Integration is an advanced level course held on Monday 16 March and Monday 6 July. This course is designed for those integrating robots and collaborative applications into industrial environments. It covers key international standards like ISO 10218-1 and 2, and dives into risk assessment, cyber security, safety functions, and validation requirements. Participants learn how to design risk reduction measures and implement integrated control strategies - all while maintaining high productivity.
Both courses are running from the Machinery Safety Training Academy in Corby, Northamptonshire.
Pilz UK Training Courses offer delegates the opportunity to build up their Machinery Safety knowledge to their individual level of qualification. Delegates can expect to walk away from both courses with an understanding of their relevant standards, potential pitfalls and proven risk reduction methods. Increase your productivity safely!
