About HEISENBERG product compliance
HEISENBERG product compliance is a sole proprietorship founded in 2022 by David Heisenberg, based in Leonberg. As an independent expert and consultant, the company supports manufacturers, operators, lawyers, courts and authorities in all matters of product safety and product compliance in mechanical engineering. Core topics are laser safety, risk assessment of machines under the Machinery Regulation, worldwide conformity assessment procedures, and X-ray safety in material processing with ultrashort-pulse lasers. After the development phase, the company supports its customers in the field: it analyzes accidents and fire incidents on machines, manages crises after serious accidents, and assists with retrofit or recall decisions. Further services include expert reports, seminars and training, energy efficiency of machine tools, and representation of interests in legislation and standardization. The founder brings 18 years of industry experience at Bosch and TRUMPF, including more than ten years as Head of Product Compliance.
