panel
3.3 Ensuring safety of
workers performing
jobs within the robot's
restricted space
3) Maintaining worker position and stance
Position and stance that enables the worker to confirm
normal robot operation and to take immediate refuge if
a malfunction occurs.
4) Implementation of measures for noise prevention
5) Signaling methods for workers of related equipment
6) Types of malfunctions and how to distinguish them
Please ensure "working regulations" are appropriate to the
robot type, the place of installation and to the content of the
work.
Be sure to consult the opinions of related workers, engineers at
the equipment manufacturer and that of a labor safety
consultant when creating these "working regulations".
To prevent anyone other than the worker from accessing the
start switch or the changeover switch by accident during
operation, display something to indicate it is in operation on the
operating panel or teach pendant. Take any other steps as
appropriate, such as locking the cover.
When performing jobs within the robot's restricted space, take
any of the following steps to ensure that robot operation can be
stopped immediately upon a malfunction.
(1) Ensure an overseer is placed in a position outside the
robot's restricted space and one in which he/she can see
all robot movements, and that he/she is devoted solely to
that task.
Q
An emergency stop device should be activated
immediately upon a malfunction.
R
Do not permit anyone other than the worker engaged
for that job to enter the robot's restricted space.
(2) Ensure a worker within the robot's restricted space carries
the portable emergency stop switch so he/she can press it
(the robot stop button on the teach pendant) immediately if
it should be necessary to do so.
