This diploma thesis focuses on the modernization of the safety system for a pneumatic press training model in accordance with current legislative requirements and standards, primarily ČSN EN ISO 13849-1. The work includes a literature search of valid standards, a detailed risk assessment and the design of hardware and software modifications. The outdated safety system was replaced by a modern Rockwell Automation GuardLogix PLC with distributed Point Guard I/O peripherals. The solution includes the implementation of a full-fledged redundant safety valve and the creation of a new visualization interface (HMI) for machine operation and diagnostics. The designed system was practically implemented, verified in the SISTEMA software tool with confirmation of achieving the required performance level (PL) and successfully validated in practice using the controlled fault injection method.
