Study Notes
Responsibilities
- Supplier: Responsible for design, construction, installation, and risk reduction measures.
- User: Identifies and mitigates hazards at points of operation, focusing on layout, installation, setup, operation, and maintenance.
- Integrator/Modifier/Rebuilder: Addresses hazards, collaborates with original suppliers for modifications, and conducts risk assessments for modifications.
- Personnel: Must follow training and safety procedures for machine operation and maintenance.
Risk Assessment Process
- Applies to interactions between complete zone control systems and individual control systems.
- Evaluates individual control systems in relation to each other within the zone.
- Essential when systems include combinations of sections or single units.
Layout Design Requirements
- Must consider:
- Access and egress
- Hazards linked to work tasks
- Work flow efficiency
- Adequate lighting
- Engineering controls
- Safety device control spans
- Defined zones
- Space for air quality systems and pedestrian movement
- Waste management
General and Training Requirements
- Operators, maintenance personnel, and supervisors require specific training tailored to their responsibilities.
- Training covers:
- Use of manual and local controls
- Safe installation and adjustment methods
- Emergency stop devices testing and function
- Energy isolation and maintenance procedures
- Equipment operation prior to production initiation
Hazard Identification & Risk Assessment
- Robots exhibit unique operational characteristics, which include:
- High-energy movements across large areas
- Predictable initiation and movement paths can be challenging
- Overlapping operational spaces between robots
- Risk management involves:
- Elimination of hazards through design
- Prevention of operator exposure to hazards
- Use of safeguarded spaces and careful layout design.
- Key tasks include:
- Process control and monitoring
- Workpiece loading and programming
- Maintenance and cleaning
- Troubleshooting and correcting malfunctions
Additional Standards and Guidelines
- ANSI/RIA R15.06-2012 details safety guidelines for industrial robots.
