2.7 Personal protective equipment
• Appropriate protective clothing should be worn when handling/using the product
(e.g. safety shoes, close-fi tting clothing, a hair net for long, loose hair). As the
system owner or operator, you are personally responsible for ensuring the use of
appropriate protective equipment when the product is being used. All component
parts of the personal protective equipment must be free of damage.
2.8 Owner responsibilities/obligations
The user is responsible for hazards arising from the nature of the load.
The load must not pose any risk to persons (e.g. catching items of clothing, scalding,
burning, etching, cutting, stabbing).
The user of an AGV is obliged to comply with all requirements of
• DIN EN 1525 "Safety of industrial trucks - Automated guided vehicles and their
systems"; Annex A "Requirements for the preparation of the environment"
• Guideline VDI 2510 Part 1 "Infrastructure and peripheral equipment for Automated
Guided Vehicles (AGV)"
• Guideline VDI 2510 Part 2 "Infrastructure and peripheral equipment for Automated
Guided Vehicles (AGV)"
and to keep it under constant review.
This also includes, among other things:
• Training of the logistics staff (see chapter 2.9 Training of the operating personnel).
• Reducing the passenger traffi c in hazardous areas.
• Attaching warning notices in hazardous areas.
• Ensuring suffi cient distance when driving past junctions, if necessary reduced
speed.
• Further measures after evaluation of the user to prevent stepping into the
protective fi eld from the side, e.g.
- Installing mirrors at narrow junctions,
- Using the Bluespot of the AGV,
- Giving warning tones for narrow junctions,
- Providing doors at junctions etc.
• Driving routes must be planned in such a way that gradients are only used in the
direction of travel (forwards or backwards).
• Driveways must not be inclined sideways.
• Do not plan curves/turns on slopes/gradients.
• If necessary, defi ne slow speed zones for slopes/gradients depending on the
actual load.
• Driveways must be planned at a distance of 0.5 m from solid obstacles.
• Driveways must be planned in such a way that vehicle encounters are avoided as
far as possible and collisions and loss of load are avoided to the greatest possible
extent.
• A collision of AGVs must not lead to consequential hazards (e.g. due to falling load).
• Passageways must be designed in such a way that there is suffi cient distance to
avoid shearing (risk assessment according to the situation). Between automatically
and manually used supermarket tracks must be a distance of at least 50 mm.
• Turns of the AGV must be planned at a suffi cient distance from solid obstacles.
• Driveways must be level, dry, clean and free of objects lying around. For exact
requirements regarding the ground conditions of the driveways, see chapter 16.5
Floor requirements.
• After cleaning the hall fl oor, the surface fi nish of the driveways must not be altered
(e.g. due to cleaning agent residues).
• The driveways must be kept clear of objects that cannot be detected by the
protective fi eld (see chapter 16.7 Scanning levels of the personal protection
systems (laser scanner)).
• Driveways must be free of projecting obstacles.
