At Schüco’s Technology Center, window, door and façade systems are tested under demanding conditions. Safe interaction between machinery and staff helps to ensure that testing procedures run smoothly. It is important for the operation to have an overview of which staff members are qualified to carry out specific tasks at the test centre, and which measures are required to ensure compliance with standards and legal requirements throughout the machine’s lifecycle. As organisational and documentation requirements continued to rise, Schüco decided to develop its Safety and Security concept further: by implementing the MYZEL Lifecycle Platform from Pilz, the company is now laying the foundations for safe and traceable processes at its test centre.

Linking people, machinery and knowledge

With the MYZEL Lifecycle Platform, Schüco now manages the machinery, qualifications and documentation for its components testing laboratory centrally in a digital environment. All the relevant information is available for each piece of equipment: from maintenance records and certificates to risk assessments and training certificates. A dashboard allows managers to see at a glance the status of their systems and identify any upcoming measures or expiring deadlines. At the same time, they can see which staff members are qualified for specific tasks. With MYZEL, Schüco has a comprehensive overview of machinery and personnel. This makes it easier to comply with legal requirements, supports day-to-day organisation at the test centre and ensures that important information is available at all times. For Schüco, this direct link between human, machine and documentation in a single platform represents a logical step towards a connected future.

Benefits at a glance

  • Machinery, qualifications and documents are managed centrally on a single platform
  • Managers identify deadlines, supporting documentation and necessary measures at an early stage.
  • The direct link between human and machine supports safe processes.
