1 Safety
1.2.3 Protective stop and emergency stop
Continued
Emergency stop
The emergency stop function shall not be applied as a substitute for safeguarding
measures and other safety functions but should be designed for use as a
complementary protective measure. (See ISO 13850.)
Emergency stop must not be used for protective stop or program stop as this
causes extra, unnecessary wear on the robot.
For how to perform program stops, see section Stopping programs in Operating
manual - IRC5 with FlexPendant.
Depending on selected options for the robot, the number of emergency stops can
vary. See documentation for the robot and the complete machine.
Other methods to stop the robot
There are also other methods to stop the robot. See:
