Warning Unauthorized access to the safety configuration must be prevented by enabling and
setting password protection during the integration.
WARNING
Failure to conduct a collaborative application risk assessment can
increase hazards.
•
Always conduct a collaborative application risk assessment
for intentional collisions and/or collisions due to reasonably
foreseeable misuse.
•
The collaborative application shall address:
•
Severity of individual potential collisions.
•
Likeliness of occurrence of individual potential
collisions.
•
Possibility to avoid individual potential collisions.
If the robot is installed in a non-collaborative robot application where hazards cannot
be reasonably eliminated or risks cannot be sufficiently reduced by use of the built-in
safety-related functions (e.g.when using a hazardous tool/end effector), then the risk
assessment conducted by the integrator must conclude the need for additional
protective measures (e.g.an enabling device to protect the operator during set-up and
programming).
Potential
Hazards
Universal Robots identifies the potential significant hazards listed below as hazards
that must be considered by the integrator. Other significant hazards can be present in
a specific robot installation.
1. Penetration of skin by sharp edges and sharp points on tool/end effector or
tool/end effector connector.
2. Penetration of skin by sharp edges and sharp points on obstacles near the
robot track.
3. Bruising due to contact with the robot.
4. Sprain or bone fracture due to strokes between a heavy payload and a hard
surface.
5. Consequences due to loose bolts that hold the robot arm or tool/end effector.
6. Items falling out of tool/end effector, e.g. due to a poor grip or power
interruption.
7. Mistakes due to different emergency stop buttons for different machines.
8. Mistakes due to unauthorized changes to the safety configuration parameters.
Information on stopping times and stopping distances are found in chapter and
appendix.
