17.Risk Assessment
Description The risk assessment is a requirement that shall be performed for the application. The
application risk assessment is the responsibility of the integrator. The user can also be
the integrator.
The robot is partly completed machinery, as such the safety of the robot application
depends on the tool/end effector, obstacles and other machines. The party performing
the integration must use ISO 12100 and ISO 10218-2 to conduct the risk assessment.
Technical Specification ISO/TS 15066 can provide additional guidance for collaborative
applications. The risk assessment shall consider all tasks throughout the lifetime of the
robot application, including but not limited to:
•
Teaching the robot during set-up and development of the robot application
•
Troubleshooting and maintenance
•
Normal operation of the robot application
A risk assessment must be conducted before the robot application is powered on for the
first time. The risk assessment is an iterative process. After physically installing the robot,
verify the connections, then complete the integration. A part of the risk assessment is to
determine the safety configuration settings, as well as the need for additional emergency
stops and/or other protective measures required for the specific robot application.
