Why complicate things? Motion and Safety all integrated.
Machinery regulation means no motion without safety. With the Sysmac platform, control, motion, and safety are engineered in one software, on one controller.
No motion without safety
Wherever a machine moves, the law expects a safety function.
From January 2027, the EU Machinery Regulation (2023/1230) replaces the Machinery Directive, and every new machine platform needs a safety architecture that stands up to it.
That turns every motion design decision into a safety design decision, on every axis you specify. If you’re specifying a platform this year, that deadline lands within the machine’s first generation.
The real cost of a three-vendor stack
Most machine builders still split the job: one vendor for the servos, one for the controller, one for the safety logic. It works. But every hand-off costs engineering hours, and safety logic in a separate tool means separate debugging and a separate qualification path.
Machine builders who consolidated describe the result differently. Özgenç Makina calls it “a stronger focus on intelligence, safety, and efficiency.”
Wondering what that would mean for your machines? Start with the expert guide: 5 questions to ask when selecting motion & safety for your machine (PDF).
One software, from controller to servo
Sysmac Studio programs logic, motion, safety, robotics, vision, and HMI in one project. Integrated safety programming isn’t new, and we won’t pretend it is.
What’s different is how simple it stays: one project, one qualification path, one vendor relationship, and libraries that carry over between machine variants. No parallel safety PLC, no second toolchain: the NX-SL5 safety module brings safety into the same controller, while automatic safety program generation cuts programming time.
And it holds up in production: Maluka builds cartoning machines that run logic, motion, safety, drives, vision, and HMI from a single Sysmac Studio program.
The same software and the same safety approach apply from NX1 to NX7. Your team learns it once; your machine range grows without re-learning.

Özgenç Makina achieves 30% higher throughput on door–window production machines with OMRON
Özgenç Makina, a globally recognized manufacturer of PVC, aluminium, and wooden door–window production machines, transformed its next-generation equipment with OMRON’s integrated automation technology. By combining Sysmac machine controllers, servo drives, safety CPUs, laser sensors, and an EtherCAT-based network, all field devices now communicate through a single high-speed architecture. A PC interface developed by Özgenç enables real-time data exchange with the controller, improving visibility and responsiveness. As a result, machine performance significantly increased: capacity rose by around 30%, wiring and assembly time were reduced, and accuracy and operator safety reached new levels. The company now benefits from a more modular, reliable, and globally competitive machine platform. Read more:

“This may sound simple, but there are two challenges here. The first serious task is to collect the products at a speed of 320 pieces per minute. The second, more difficult task is to group these products, once horizontally into columns, once vertically into rows.”

Maluka speeds up food cartoning process with OMRON servo drives
RaceTrack Function Block simplifies complex motion control The process of packing products into cartons in two different ways is problematic for a single machine, which is why companies often require two. To meet this challenge at a major food producer in Poland, the Maluka team undertook the design, production and implementation of a cartoning machine for hamburger steaks, using OMRON technology.
