Additionally, the Standard Bots RO1 robot also contains capacitors to store electrical energy. The robot
should not be opened except by Standard Bots personnel. In some cases it may be required to open the
joint caps of the robot. This should only be done after the control box power source has been unplugged
for at least 2 minutes, and should only be done while following explicit instructions from Standard Bots
personnel.
Mechanical: The Standard Bots RO1 is capable of lifting 39 lbs (18kg). If the robot is stopped mid cycle
and currently has a workpiece in the end of arm tool, a hazard will be present as the workpiece could
unexpectedly fall if the source providing the clamping force is de-energized. Always exercise caution
and remove the workpiece from the end of arm tool when approaching the robot.
Pneumatic: The RO1 is compatible with a variety of pneumatic accessories. Stored energy exists in
the form of compressed air in pneumatic systems. Bodily or hearing injury can occur from accidentally
releasing compressed air from pneumatic systems while performing maintenance. Unexpected motion
can occur from components when working on energized pneumatic systems. All compressed air should
be removed from the system before performing maintenance on any pneumatic system.
2.4.3 Performing a Lockout
Should a lockout of the Standard Bots RO1 be required, unplug the AC input cord and use a plug lockout
with appropriate lock. Follow all standard lockout tag-out procedures.
If applicable, also lock out any compressed air sources to devices integrated with the RO1 using stan-
dard lockout tag-out procedures.
