Universal Robots ActiNav, Quick Start Manual

Page: 13 / 30

CAUTION
Robot inactivity can be perceived as a stop, resulting in equipment damage or
personnel injury from unexpected movement.
• Check the program state to determine if the robot is completely stopped or
temporarily inactive (waiting). If the program is running but the robot is not
moving, the robot can move again unexpectedly.
• Configure warning behavior in the Motion Start Actions.
For more information on Motion Start Actions, see the ActiNav Operating Guide.
2.4. Tool-specific safety precautions
This section contains safety precautions specific to ActiNav tool usage.
The integrator shall design, or select, the tool (see requirements in EN-ISO 10218-2).
WARNING
The potential energy of the payload can lead to a throwing hazard, in the following
cases:
• Poor grasp (workpiece retention).
• The workpiece is too heavy.
• The tool is poorly designed.
• The robot moves too quickly.
• The integrator shall design, or select, the proper gripper, taking into
account: the robot movements, the part features and the inertia of the
workpiece when gripped by the robot.
In the case of vacuum grippers and electromagnets, loss of power can cause the workpiece to
fall from the tool as a result of gravity.
CAUTION
Loss of power can result in the tool dropping the workpiece.
• Turn the power off before removing the tool.
• The integrator shall ensure there are backup systems to keep the tool
holding the workpiece, if power is lost unexpectedly.
