The CMRE (Certified Machinery Risk Evaluator) training course is tailor-made for EHS managers and engineering technicians. It aims to comprehensively improve the safety management level of mechanical equipment and facilities, and address industry pain points in the field of machinery safety.

From May 21 to 22, 2026, the 7th Certified Machinery Risk Evaluator (CMRE) training course, jointly organized by Shanghai Chenzhu and TÜV SÜD, was successfully completed at the headquarters of Shanghai Chenzhu. The course brought together 35 participants from new energy, automotive, electronics, robotics and other industries to conduct in-depth learning on systematic methods and practical applications of machinery safety assessment.

Systematic Course Focused on Practical Implementation

The CMRE training is built around three knowledge systems: Fundamentals + Technology + Management.

On-site Scenario Application: Visit to Smart Factory

Participants visited Chenzhu’s exhibition hall to observe devices and application scenarios with integrated safety solutions at close range, and toured Chenzhu’s CNAS-accredited laboratory to witness the verification and testing process of key safety functions.

Overall Machinery Safety Solution Showcase

Taking the Overall Robot Safety Protection Solution as an example, the course systematically demonstrated how six evaluation indicators are applied in real scenarios:

-Protection IntegrityMechanical fences, safety distances and other design & installation items fully comply with national standards and requirements.

-Stop TimelinessSafety distances upon triggering of safety light curtains / interlocks meet standard specifications.

-Circuit ReliabilitySafety functions of emergency stops, safety interlocks, light curtains, radar and other stopping devices reach required performance levels.

-Prevention of Accidental Startup during Routine OperationsSafety door interlocks are equipped with mechanical bolts, complying with ISO 14118, and support padlocking to prevent accidental door closure when personnel enter the workspace.

-Prevention of Accidental Startup during Inspection & MaintenanceLoad switches meeting the requirements of IEC 60947-1/3 are installed.

-Safety during Manual Energized OperationsIn manual mode with protective shielding disabled, the robot speed is forcibly limited to ≤250mm/s. A 3-position enabling device plus hold-to-run function is adopted to ensure operational safety.

Since its launch, the CMRE certification course developed by Shanghai Chenzhu and TÜV SÜD has cultivated a large number of certified machinery risk evaluators for the industry. Participants include equipment manufacturers, EHS specialists, factory safety managers and other professionals.

As a global provider of safety products and industry-specific application solutions in the field of automation safety, Shanghai Chenzhu is committed to bridging customers and compliance through innovative safety products and industry solutions.

We look forward to partnering with more stakeholders to provide customers with design and production support in line with CE and other international standards, jointly promote the ecological development of machinery safety, and lay a solid safety foundation for Made in China 2025.
