CONSIDERING
SAFETY FOR YOUR
ROBOT
INSTALLATION
Keeping People and
Equipment Safe
Using Safety
Enhancing Devices
Safety is essential whenever robots are used. Keep in mind the
following factors with regard to safety:
· The safety of people and equipment
· Use of safety enhancing devices
· Techniques for safe teaching and manual operation of the
robot(s)
· Techniques for safe automatic operation of the robot(s)
· Regular scheduled inspection of the robot and workcell
· Proper maintenance of the robot
The safety of people is always of primary importance in any
situation. However, equipment must be kept safe, too. When
prioritizing how to apply safety to your robotic system, consider the
following:
· People
· External devices
· Robot(s)
· Tooling
· Workpiece
Always give appropriate attention to the work area that surrounds
the robot. The safety of the work area can be enhanced by the
installation of some or all of the following devices:
Setting Up a Safe
Workcell
· Safety fences, barriers, or chains
· Light curtains
· Interlocks
· Pressure mats
· Floor markings
· Warning lights
· Mechanical stops
· EMERGENCY STOP buttons
· DEADMAN switches
A safe workcell is essential to protect people and equipment.
Observe the following guidelines to ensure that the workcell is set
up safely. These suggestions are intended to supplement and not
replace existing federal, state, and local laws, regulations, and
guidelines that pertain to safety.

·
Install a lockout device that uses an access code to prevent
unauthorized persons from operating the robot.
· Use anti–tie–down logic to prevent the operator from bypassing
safety measures.
· Arrange the workcell so the operator faces the workcell and can
see what is going on inside the cell.
· Clearly identify the work envelope of each robot in the system
with floor markings, signs, and special barriers. The work
envelope is the area defined by the maximum motion range of
the robot, including any tooling attached to the wrist flange that
extend this range.
· Position all controllers outside the robot work envelope.
· Never rely on software as the primary safety element.
·Mount an adequate number of EMERGENCY STOP buttons or
switches within easy reach of the operator and at critical points
inside and around the outside of the workcell.

ADDITIONAL
SAFETY
CONSIDERATIONS
FOR PAINT ROBOT
INSTALLATIONS
Process technicians are sometimes required to enter the paint
booth, for example, during daily or routine calibration or while
teaching new paths to a robot. Maintenance personal also must
work inside the paint booth periodically.
Whenever personnel are working inside the paint booth, ventilation
equipment must be used. Instruction on the proper use of
ventilating equipment usually is provided by the paint shop
supervisor.
Although paint booth hazards have been minimized, potential
dangers still exist. Therefore, today’s highly automated paint booth
requires that process and maintenance personnel have full
awareness of the system and its capabilities. They must
understand the interaction that occurs between the vehicle moving
along the conveyor and the robot(s), hood/deck and door opening
devices, and high–voltage electrostatic tools.
Paint robots are operated in three modes:
· Teach or manual mode
· Automatic mode, including automatic and exercise operation
· Diagnostic mode
During both teach and automatic modes, the robots in the paint
booth will follow a predetermined pattern of movements. In teach
mode, the process technician teaches (programs) paint paths using
the teach pendant.
In automatic mode, robot operation is initiated at the System
Operator Console (SOC) or Manual Control Panel (MCP), if
available, and can be monitored from outside the paint booth. All
personnel must remain outside of the booth or in a designated safe
MARMI120I07021E REV
A
Safety-11
area within the booth whenever automatic mode is initiated at the
SOC or MCP.
In automatic mode, the robots will execute the path movements they
were taught during teach mode, but generally at production speeds.
When process and maintenance personnel run diagnostic routines
that require them to remain in the paint booth, they must stay in a
designated safe area.
Paint System Safety
Features
Process technicians and maintenance personnel must become
totally familiar with the equipment and its capabilities. To minimize
the risk of injury when working near robots and related equipment,
personnel must comply strictly with the procedures in the manuals.
This section provides information about the safety features that are
included in the paint system and also explains the way the robot
interacts with other equipment in the system.
The paint system includes the following safety features:
· Most paint booths have red warning beacons that illuminate
when the robots are armed and ready to paint. Your booth
might have other kinds of indicators. Learn what these are.
· Some paint booths have a blue beacon that, when illuminated,
indicates that the electrostatic devices are enabled. Your booth
might have other kinds of indicators. Learn what these are.
· EMERGENCY STOP buttons are located on the robot controller
and teach pendant. Become familiar with the locations of all E–
STOP buttons.
· An intrinsically safe teach pendant is used when teaching in
hazardous paint atmospheres.
· A DEADMAN switch is located on each teach pendant. When this
switch is held in, and the teach pendant is on, power is applied to the
robot servo system. If the engaged DEADMAN switch is released
during robot operation, power is removed from the servo system, all
axis brakes are applied, and the robot comes to an EMERGENCY
STOP. Safety interlocks within the system might also E–STOP other
robots.
WARNING
An EMERGENCY STOP will occur if the DEADMAN switch is
released on a bypassed robot.
A
Safety-12
MARMI120I07021E REV
Overtravel by robot axes is prevented by software limits. All of
·
the major and minor axes are governed by software limits. Limit
switches and hardstops also limit travel by the major axes.
· EMERGENCY STOP limit switches and photoelectric eyes
might be part of your system. Limit switches, located on the
entrance/exit doors of each booth, will EMERGENCY STOP all
equipment in the booth if a door is opened while the system is
operating in automatic or manual mode. For some systems,
signals to these switches are inactive when the switch on the
SCC is in teach mode.
When present, photoelectric eyes are sometimes used to
monitor unauthorized intrusion through the entrance/exit
silhouette openings.
· System status is monitored by computer. Severe conditions
result in automatic system shutdown.
Staying Safe While
Operating the Paint
Robot
When you work in or near the paint booth, observe the following
rules, in addition to all rules for safe operation that apply to all robot
systems.
WARNING
