The Machine Safeguarding Professionals
ISC, Inc. will assist you with the interpretation of the various safety standards as they apply to your specific machinery. Our evaluation will allow you to gain a better understanding of your safeguarding needs. Our knowledge of proper product use and guarding methods will help you comply with all industry standards.

National Fire Protection Association (NFPA)
Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA)
Robotics Industries Association
Your State Safety Council
