5 Safety
smartPAD The user must ensure that the industrial robot is only operated with the smart-
PAD by authorized persons.
If more than one smartPAD is used in the overall system, it must be ensured
that it is clearly recognizable which smartPAD is connected to which industrial
robot. They must not be interchanged.
Modifications After modifications to the industrial robot, checks must be carried out to ensure
the required safety level. The valid national or regional work safety regulations
must be observed for this check. The correct functioning of all safety functions
must also be tested.
New or modified programs must always be tested first in Manual Reduced Ve-
locity mode (T1).
After modifications to the industrial robot, existing programs must always be
tested first in Manual Reduced Velocity mode (T1). This applies to all compo-
nents of the industrial robot and includes e.g. modifications of the external
axes or to the software and configuration settings.
Faults The following tasks must be carried out in the case of faults in the industrial
robot:
Switch off the robot controller and secure it (e.g. with a padlock) to prevent
unauthorized persons from switching it on again.
Indicate the fault by means of a label with a corresponding warning (tag-
out).
Keep a record of the faults.
Eliminate the fault and carry out a function test.
5.8.2 Transportation
Manipulator The prescribed transport position of the manipulator must be observed. Trans-
portation must be carried out in accordance with the operating instructions or
assembly instructions of the robot.
Avoid vibrations and impacts during transportation in order to prevent damage
to the manipulator.
Robot controller The prescribed transport position of the robot controller must be observed.
Transportation must be carried out in accordance with the operating instruc-
tions or assembly instructions of the robot controller.
Standing underneath the robot arm can cause death or
injuries. For this reason, standing underneath the robot
arm is prohibited!
The motors reach temperatures during operation which
can cause burns to the skin. Contact must be avoided.
Appropriate safety precautions must be taken, e.g. protective gloves must be
worn.
The operator must ensure that decoupled smartPADs
are immediately removed from the system and stored out
of sight and reach of personnel working on the industrial robot. This serves
to prevent operational and non-operational EMERGENCY STOP devices
from becoming interchanged.
Failure to observe this precaution may result in death, severe injuries or con-
siderable damage to property.
