Hello everyone,
My company is looking into Universal Robots and I've been asked with seeing how it meets the ANSI and ISO safety standards.
I've evaluated ISO 10218-1 and TS15066 and have a a few questions;
- How does the UR verify the max force that it is outputting? This is required per TS15066
- Does the Teach Pendant have a 'dead man' switch or enabling switch? If not, can this be done with an external device?
- Can the torques of each axis be monitored?
- Since OSHA references R15.06, that means ISO 10218-1 and ISO 10218-2 should be applied...correct?
Thanks for the help, there is definitely a steep learning curve for collaborative safety.
