FAQ

Can you help with CE marking and Machine Directive compliance?

Voxdale designs with Machine Directive (2006/42/EC) and functional safety standards (ISO 13849, IEC 62061) in mind from the first architecture review. We embed compliance requirements into design decisions, not as a final check, and prepare technical files, risk assessments, and relevant documentation in coordination with your regulatory partners and notified bodies.

Can you design physical products to integrate into an existing production line?

Yes. Voxdale works from your interface specifications, mechanical envelope constraints, load data, and communication protocol requirements to engineer physical products that install into your line without requiring modifications to adjacent systems. Where interface standards are ambiguous, we work with your line engineers to define them upfront.

How do you handle vibration, shock, and continuous-duty demands of industrial environments?

We design for the actual operating profile from the start, using appropriate material grades, fastener preloading, fatigue analysis, vibration-rated components, and IP-rated sealing, and validate against your conditions through structured bench testing and, where possible, on-machine validation before final sign-off.

At which stage should we involve Voxdale?

From initial concept and architecture through detailed engineering, certification support, and production transfer. Voxdale can also step in mid-project to resolve specific technical or compliance challenges on existing designs, or provide embedded engineers to boost capacity within your own team.

Do you work with safety systems and safety-rated products?

Yes. Voxdale designs safety-rated physical products in line with ISO 13849 and IEC 62061, covering safety function definition, architecture selection, and performance level calculations. We coordinate with your safety engineer or a notified body for a formal functional safety assessment.

How do you approach design for maintainability and serviceability in industrial systems?

Serviceability is treated as a design requirement from the first concept, not an afterthought. We model maintenance access, consider tool envelope constraints, design for common service intervals, and document service procedures as part of the industrialisation handover package.
