The safety factor is an indicator that specifies the margin of safety to be maintained relative to the actual load applied to materials or components, serving as a criterion for ensuring product reliability. When performing motor selection, setting an appropriate safety factor for the anticipated load is essential for extending the lifespan of the product and reducing the risk of failure. In this article, we provide an easy-to-understand explanation for beginners, covering everything from the basic definition of the safety factor to calculation methods, how to determine it in practice, and guideline values for mechanical design."}
