ISO 13849: MTTFd from B10d and Component Data
- Date

- ISO 13849 (Functional Safety)
About this event
If you work with machine safety, reliability calculations, or functional safety documentation, you already know that turning B10d values and component life data into a defensible MTTFd calculation can be more confusing than it should be. This meetup is built to make that process clearer, more practical, and easier to apply in real engineering work. Whether you are trying to understand the logic behind the numbers, check your assumptions, or compare how others approach ISO 13849 calculations, this is a focused in-person session where you can learn, ask direct questions, and talk through the details with people who care about getting it right. About the Event This event centers on a very specific and highly useful topic within ISO 13849: how to derive MTTFd from B10d and available component
Who should attend
This is for people who want a more practical handle on ISO 13849 calculations, especially when the challenge is translating component data into something usable. - You should attend if you work with **machine safety** and need to understand how **B10d** values are converted into **MTTFd** in real projects. - You will get a lot from this if you are a **controls engineer, design engineer, reliability engineer, or safety engineer** who has to interpret manufacturer data and support safety-related design decisions. - This is a strong fit if you are involved in **validation, compliance, technical documentation, or risk reduction** and want more confidence in the assumptions behind the numbers. - You should come if you have ever looked at a datasheet and asked, **“Is this enough information to use in my ISO 13849 calculation?”** - It is also a good fit if you want to compare approaches with peers, hear how others handle incomplete or ambiguous component data, and improve the quality of cross-team conversations. - If you are newer to this part of functional safety but already touching the work, the meetup offers a useful chance to build understanding in a setting that is technical, practical, and discussion-friendly.
