DANGER
Dangerous movements! Danger to life and risk
of injury or equipment damage!
⇒
Personnel protection must be secured for the above
listed reason by means of superordinate monitors or
measures.
These are instituted in accordance with the specific
situation of the facility and a danger and fault
analysis conducted by the manufacturer of the
facility. All the safety regulations that apply to this
facility are included therein. By switching off,
circumventing or if safety devices have simply not
been activated, then random machine movements or
other types of faults can occur.
Avoiding accidents, injury or property damage:
⇒
Keep free and clear of the machine’s range of
motion and moving parts. Prevent people from
accidentally entering the machine’s range of
movement:
- use protective fences
- use protective railings
- install protective coverings
- install light curtains or light barriers
⇒
Fences must be strong enough to withstand
maximum possible momentum.
⇒
Mount the emergency stop switch (E-stop) in the
immediate reach of the operator. Verify that the
emergency stop works before startup. Don’t operate
the machine if the emergency stop is not working.
⇒
Isolate the drive power connection by means of an
emergency stop circuit or use a start-inhibit system
to prevent unintentional start-up.
⇒
Make sure that the drives are brought to standstill
before accessing or entering the danger zone.
⇒
Secure vertical axes against falling or slipping after
switching off the motor power by, for example:
- Mechanically securing the vertical axes
- Adding an external brake / clamping mechanism
- Balancing and thus compensating for the vertical
axes mass and the gravitational force
The standard equipment motor brake or an external
brake controlled directly by the servo drive are not
sufficient to guarantee the safety of personnel!
