2.2 Precautions and Required Safeguards
This manual must be read by all personnel who install, operate, or maintain Adept
systems, or who work within or near the workcell.
Definition of a Manipulating Industrial Robot
The definition of a manipulating robot according to (ISO 10218:1992(E)) is as follows:
“A manipulating robot is an automatically controlled, reprogrammable, multipurpose,
manipulative machine with several degrees of freedom, which may be either fixed in
place or mobile for use in industrial automation applications.”
Safety Barriers
Safety barriers must be provided that prevent personnel from entering the workcell
whenever power is applied to the equipment. Adept systems are computer-controlled and
may activate remote devices under program control at times or along paths not
anticipated by personnel. It is critical that safeguards be in place to prevent personnel
from entering the workcell whenever power to the equipment is present.
The robot system integrator (user or operator) must ensure that adequate safeguards,
safety barriers, light curtains, safety gates, safety floor mats, etc., are installed. The robot
workcell must comply with applicable local and national standards (see
Section 2.7 on
page 21 ).
The height and the distance of the safety fence from the robot must ensure that personnel
cannot reach the danger zone of the robot.
The Adept control system has features that aid the user in constructing system safeguards,
including customer emergency stop circuitry and digital input and output lines. The
emergency power-off circuitry is capable of switching external power systems and can be
interfaced to the appropriate user-supplied safeguards. See the
Adept SmartController
User’s Guide for additional information.
Impact and Trapping Points
Adept robots are capable of moving at high speeds. If a person is struck by a robot
(impacted) or trapped (pinched) serious injury could occur. Robot configuration, joint
speed, joint orientation, and attached payload all contribute to the total amount of energy
available to cause injury.
CAUTION: Adept Technology strictly prohibits
installation, commissioning, or operation of an Adept
robot without adequate safeguards. These must be
compliant with applicable local and national standards.
Installations in EU and EEA countries must comply with
EN 775/ISO 10218, especially sections 5,6; EN 292-2; and
EN 60204-1, especially section 13.
