  • Page 7: Safety

    2.1. Intended Use OnRobot tools are intended to be used on collaborative robots and light industrial robots with different payloads depending on the end-of-arm tooling specifications. OnRobot tools are normally use in pick-and-place, palletizing, machine tending, assembly, quality testing and inspection and surface finishing applications.
  • Page 8: Risk Assessment

    The robot integrator must perform a risk assessment on the complete robot application. OnRobot tools are only components in a robot application and therefore they can be only safely operated if the integrator has considered the safety aspects of the whole application.
