The High Price of Non-Compliance
In Quebec, the CNESST has strict regulations regarding machine safety. Operating equipment without proper CSA or UL 508A certification not only risks worker safety but can lead to heavy fines and immediate production shutdowns.
1. Common Issues with Imported Machinery
Many machines imported from overseas arrive with electrical components that lack North American recognition. At Aidtech, we specialize in identifying these gaps—such as improper grounding, lack of dual-channel safety circuits, or non-certified contactors.
2. The Integrated Retrofit Solution
We provide a turnkey solution to bring your legacy or imported equipment up to code:
- New UL 508A Control Panels: Replacing outdated "black box" controllers with transparent, certified electrical hubs.
- Safety Interlocks: Installing light curtains and emergency stop systems that meet Category 3 or 4 safety architectures.
- DUCO Cobot Integration: Replacing dangerous manual tasks with collaborative robots that feature built-in safety sensors.
3. Local Engineering Approval
Our team works with certified inspectors to ensure that once we complete your electrical retrofit, your machine receives the necessary field approval mark for legal operation in Canada.
