Safe Guard Devices Description
The safe guard device must use the components approved by the safety regulations and set and plan
according to the relevant regulations.
The robotic arm system must be automatically activated to receive the safety signal. In the event of a
connection failure during automatic mode operation, an emergency stop must be triggered. When
reconnecting after disconnection, the device cannot be automatically started directly and must be started
manually. Manual slow running (T1) and manual fast running (T2) modes allow the guard not activate. A
method must be provided to confirm that no personnel are in the protected area when the automatic
mode is activated.
Users must strictly abide by the content description, otherwise it will cause serious casualties.
Temporary fences can be used during system installation and can be set according to ISO 10218-2
regulations

devices are available for use without or losing the teach pendant.

Provide interface to connect external emergency stop devices.

The emergency stop function can be triggered when the safety control system connected to the robot
arm is cut off.


If a tool or other device connected to the robot is dangerous, it must be connected to the emergency
