Safe overview of the machine lifecycle with the MYZEL Lifecycle Platform

Industrial companies looking for a unified way to manage machinery, documentation, safety tasks and employee access across the entire machine lifecycle often face fragmented systems and inconsistent compliance processes. Pilz addresses these challenges with the new MYZEL Lifecycle Platform, a cloud-based Software-as-a-Service solution that consolidates machine and personnel management in one environment and ensures compliance with evolving safety and security requirements.

A Centralised Platform for All Machine and Personnel Data
The platform enables users to digitally map their production facilities, including all machines and associated users, and store every relevant machine artefact in one place. Operating manuals, certifications, maintenance logs and employee qualifications are centrally available via the integrated asset management system, giving industrial operators clearer visibility of their machinery and ensuring information is accessible at any time and from any location.
This comprehensive data consolidation differentiates MYZEL from simpler documentation or maintenance tools that lack lifecycle-wide traceability.

Integrated Workflows for Design, Operation and Access Control
The platform combines a mandatory core component with optional workflows that industrial users can subscribe to depending on their needs. The safe design workflow supports risk assessments and validation activities for new and existing machines, guiding users through key steps to ensure compliance. The operation workflow supports periodic maintenance and inspection activities in line with legal requirements and provides structured guidance for documenting and tracking them. The access control workflow manages individual access rights for employees, helping operators maintain secure and compliant entry policies. By offering these functions as integrated workflows rather than standalone tools, MYZEL reduces duplication, ensures consistent documentation and supports safer, more efficient processes.

Improved Documentation, Traceability and Compliance
Checklists, templates and structured guidance embedded in the platform help users maintain up-to-date safety information, record evidence, and manage deadlines for inspections or qualifications. A customised dashboard highlights where action is needed, enabling operators to reduce unnoticed gaps in compliance. Templates are aligned with applicable standards and legislation, making MYZEL particularly valuable for users who need to demonstrate conformity throughout the entire lifecycle of a machine.

Enhanced Productivity Through Secure, Cloud-Based Management
By centralising safety and security-related data, the platform enables operators to keep their machinery up to date and maintain consistently documented processes. This reduces administrative workload and increases productivity by avoiding missing documentation, outdated instructions or overlooked deadlines.

The cloud infrastructure meets the highest data protection requirements and is certified to ISO/IEC 27017 and ISO/IEC 27018, with all data stored on EU servers—an important differentiator for companies that require secure and compliant cloud solutions.
