2.1.4 Safety - Personnel
Every person concerned with the IMM and the
robot system at the user’s plant must have read
and understood the relevant operating manual,
especially the section entitled ”Safety”. This
applies to all persons involved in assembly/
disassembly work, commissioning, operation
and repair activities (servicing, maintenance and
repairs). Users are recommended to require
this be confirmed in writing by each of the
persons concerned.
The IMM and the robot system may only be
operated, serviced and repaired by authorised,
qualified persons who have received special
training on how to deal with potential hazards.
Persons who are to be trained and instructed or
who are participating in general training courses
may only work on the IMM and the robot system
provided they are constantly supervised by
authorised, qualified persons.
Operators must not have long hair, wear loose-
fitting clothing or wear any form of jewellery or
rings. Here there is the risk of injury, e.g. getting
caught in moving parts.
Responsibility for assembly/disassembly,
commissioning. operation and maintenance
activities must be clearly defined and adhered to
in order to avoid any potential
misunderstandings with regard to safety.
When carrying out any form of assembly/
disassembly, conversion and maintenance
activities the IMM and the robot system must be
deactivated at the main switch and secured
against accidental start-up, e.g. by padlocking
the main switch.
During any work involving assembly/
disassembly, conversion, operation and
maintenance activities, inflammable liquids must
not be allowed to come into contact with
components which may create a fire hazard or
explode as a result of high temperatures.
The following systems must be allowed to cool
down to a safe temperature before carrying out
any work involving assembly/disassembly,
conversion or maintenance activities:
• Heating elements and guards.
• Temperature stabilisers, including
fittings, feeder/return pipes and
mountings.
• Water/heat transfer oil-filled surface
cooling on the worm cylinder (optional)
and/or worm feed zone (optional),
including all fittings, feeder/return pipes
and mountings.
• Water/heat transfer oil internal cooling on
the worm (optional), including all fittings,
feeder/return pipes and mountings.
