From hazard to standards-compliant warning.
DokuTech Swiss combines risk assessment and operating instructions in one system. Identify hazards, evaluate risks with the risk graph and automatically transfer residual risks as compliant warnings – all per EN ISO 12100.
Why an integrated risk assessment?
In many companies, risk assessment and operating instructions are created in separate systems. This leads to inconsistencies, duplicate work and the risk that residual risks are not correctly transferred to the documentation.
9-Step Workflow
Systematically from machine registration to compliance verification
Master data & limits
Machine selection, intended use, spatial and temporal limits. AI text assistance for master data fields.
Life phases & user groups
Machine life phases (transport, installation, operation, maintenance, disposal) and user groups. Cross-matrix with AI auto-assignment.
Standards matrix
Assignment of applicable standards from 77 standards (A/B1/B2/C types). AI standards suggestion, validity check and engineer confirmation.
Hazard identification
Identify hazards from 6 industry catalogs, AI recognition with industry context and multimodal image analysis. ISO 7010 warning symbols automatically assigned.
Risk assessment BEFORE measures
4×4 risk matrix (severity × probability) with clickable matrix, OS-GVO color coding and worst-case analysis per assembly.
Measures
3-step method with enforcement logic: inherently safe design → protective devices → user information. Status tracking and AI text assistance.
Risk assessment AFTER measures
Re-assessment after implementation of measures. Before/after comparison in the matrix with heatmap visualization and trend diagrams.
Residual risks → Manual
Automatic transfer of residual risks as ANSI Z535.6 compliant warning elements with ISO 7010 symbols into the operating instructions.
Release & export
Responsibility confirmation with signature field, audit trail and compliance report as PDF/Excel export with heatmaps, symbols and measures overview.
Risk Graph per EN ISO 12100
The risk graph enables systematic and traceable risk evaluation. Four parameters determine the risk level:
Severity (S)
Severity of possible injury – from minor (S1) to fatal (S4)
Frequency (F)
Frequency and duration of exposure – rare (F1) to frequent/permanent (F2)
Avoidability (P)
Possibility of avoiding harm – possible (P1) to hardly possible (P2)
Probability (W)
Probability of occurrence – low (W1) to high (W3)
Interactive 4×4 Risk Matrix
The clickable risk matrix enables intuitive risk assessment directly in the browser. Select severity and probability with a click – the system automatically calculates the risk level with color coding according to OS-GVO.

Drag & Drop for Assembly Groups and Hazards
Structure your risk assessment intuitively via drag & drop. Arrange assembly groups hierarchically, move hazards between groups and define interface hazards.
6 Industry-Specific Hazard Catalogues
Pre-configured hazards as a starting point for your risk assessment
Woodworking
Sawing, planing, milling, sanding – hazards from rotating tools, kickback, dust
Metalworking
Turning, milling, welding, stamping – chips, heat, electrical energy
Food Industry
Mixing, cutting, packaging – hygiene, temperature, chemical cleaning agents
Plastics Processing
Injection moulding, extrusion, thermoforming – heat, pressure, outgassing
Conveying Technology
Belts, rollers, chains, lifts – nip points, crush points, falling loads
Automation / Robotics
Collaborative robots, safety zones – unexpected movements, collisions
From Residual Risks to Compliant Warnings
Residual risks are automatically transferred as structured ANSI Z535.6 warnings:
Signal word
Automatic assignment: DANGER (immediate life threat), WARNING (possible serious injury), CAUTION (possible minor injury)
ISO 7010 symbol
Appropriate warning symbol automatically suggested from the integrated ISO 7010 library
Structured description
Each warning contains: type of hazard, possible consequences and specific avoidance measures
Heatmap Visualization and Trend Charts
Keep an overview of all risks for your machine. Collapsible heatmaps show risk distribution before and after measures, trend charts document the development across revisions.
AI Design Tips for Protective Measures
NEWWhen creating a risk assessment, you define protective measures for identified hazards. But which design details need to be considered during implementation? With one click on the ruler icon, the AI analyses the context – the hazard, the measure and the machine type – and delivers 2 to 4 concrete design tips referencing the relevant standards.
Referenzierte Normen
The AI analysis serves as an aid. It does not replace official standards research or the responsibility of the designer.
PDF and Excel Export with Heatmaps
Export your complete risk assessment as a professional PDF report or structured Excel file – including heatmaps, warning symbols and approval protocol.
Compliance Report as PDF
The automatically generated compliance report documents the complete risk assessment:
With and Without Integrated Risk Assessment
The difference in direct comparison
| Aspect | Without Integration | With DokuTech Swiss |
|---|---|---|
| Systems | Risk assessment in Excel/Word, instructions in separate tool | Everything in one system – no media breaks |
| Risk transfer | Manual copying, error-prone | Automatic transfer as compliant warnings |
| Warnings | Manually formatted, often non-compliant | ANSI Z535.6 compliant with ISO 7010 symbols |
| Evidence obligation | Separate documentation, hard to trace | Compliance report as PDF at the click of a button |
| Industry knowledge | Capture hazards from scratch | 6 industry catalogues as starting point |
| AI support | None | AI hazard detection with industry context |
Industry Context for AI
A unique feature: the industry context provides the AI with sector-specific knowledge. Select your industry and the AI automatically considers:
