Standard

The specific purpose of this protocol is to validate the safety skill “limit interaction energy” by measurement. The skill “limit interaction energy” protects bystanders from injuries caused by collision with the exoskeleton. This protocol is therefore not focusing on the safety of the person attached to the exoskeleton but rather of persons in close proximity of the exoskeleton. For the execution of this protocol it is required that the reader has a bio-fidelic force and pressure measurement device available.

This protocol describes a method for validating the safety skill “Maintain proper alignment” for joint axis alignment (both translational as well as rotational) for exoskeleton type rehabilitation robots as well as exoskeleton type robots used in other domains. This protocol uses an instrumented artificial limb, by which the joint angles, contact forces as well as the forces and torques in the joint can be determined, to validate the skill.

This document specifies the requirements of safety management systems for application services provided by service robots (application service safety management system (hereafter AsSMS)) that an application service provider can use for the safety of its users and its third parties when it provides application service in unstructured human spaces with trained and untrained persons. (e.g., giving directions for visitors in airport or shopping mall, carrying goods to patients in hospital, delivering food to customers in restaurant.)This document is applicable to any organization that wishes toa) improve safety performance of application services provided by service robots,b) establish, implement, maintain and improve safety management systems for application services provided by service robots,c) assure itself of conformity with its stated application service safety policy, andd) demonstrate conformity with this document.The requirements of this document can be conformed to by integrating safety management systems for application services provided by service robots into, or making it compatible with, other management system or processes within the organization.The requirements of this document can be conformed to by multiple organizations without omission depending on what shall be done as an organization and a safety management.Although intended for application services provided by service robots, this standard can also be applied for services using robots other than service robots.This document is not intended to be used as a product safety standard.NOTE The safety management systems for application services provided by service robots established in accordance with the requirements of this document may not apply directly when service robots to be used, robot systems, contents of service, places of operation, users or so differ.

Harmonised to the EU Machinery Directive, this adopted ISO Standard addresses the safety requirements addressing particular hazards that are presented by industrial robot systems when integrated and installed in industrial robot cells and lines. As a harmonised standard it can be used to demonstrate complaince required for CE marking of the system.

This document defines terms relevant to automatic end-effector exchange systems used as a part of robot systems in accordance with ISO 10218‑2.

ISO 12100:2010 specifies basic terminology, principles and a methodology for achieving safety in the design of machinery. It specifies principles of risk assessment and risk reduction to help designers in achieving this objective. These principles are based on knowledge and experience of the design, use, incidents, accidents and risks associated with machinery. Procedures are described for identifying hazards and estimating and evaluating risks during relevant phases of the machine life cycle, and for the elimination of hazards or sufficient risk reduction. Guidance is given on the documentation and verification of the risk assessment and risk reduction process.ISO 12100:2010 is also intended to be used as a basis for the preparation of type-B or type-C safety standards.It does not deal with risk and/or damage to domestic animals, property or the environment.

ISO/TR 20218-2:2017 is applicable to robot systems for manual load/unload applications in which a hazard zone is safeguarded by preventing access to it. For this type of application, it is important to consider the need for both access restrictions to hazard zones and for ergonomically suitable work places.ISO/TR 20218-2:2017 supplements ISO 10218-2:2011 and provides additional information and guidance on reducing the risk of intrusion into the hazard zones in the design and safeguarding of manual load/unload installations.

ISO 9409-2:2002 defines the main dimensions, designation and marking for a shaft with cylindrical projection as mechanical interface. It is intended to ensure the exchangeability and to keep the orientation of hand-mounted end effectors.ISO 9409-2:2002 does not contain any correlation of load-carrying ranges.The mechanical interfaces specified in ISO 9409-2:2002 will also find application in simple handling systems which are not covered by the definition of manipulating industrial robots, such as pick-and-place or master-slave units.

ISO 14539 is one of a series of standards dealing with the requirements of manipulating industrial robots. Other documents cover such topics as terminology, general characteristics, coordinate systems, performance criteria and related test methods, safety, mechanical interfaces and graphical user interfaces for programming

This document provides guidance on safety measures for the design and integration of end-effectors used for robot systems. The integration includes the following:— the manufacturing, design and integration of end-effectors. — the necessary information for use.This document provides additional safety guidance on the integration of robot systems, as described in ISO 10218‑2:2011.

ISO 10218-2:2011 specifies safety requirements for the integration of industrial robots and industrial robot systems as defined in ISO 10218-1, and industrial robot cell(s). The integration includes the following:the design, manufacturing, installation, operation, maintenance and decommissioning of the industrial robot system or cell. necessary information for the design, manufacturing, installation, operation, maintenance and decommissioning of the industrial robot system or cell. component devices of the industrial robot system or cell.ISO 10218-2:2011 describes the basic hazards and hazardous situations identified with these systems, and provides requirements to eliminate or adequately reduce the risks associated with these hazards. ISO 10218-2:2011 also specifies requirements for the industrial robot system as part of an integrated manufacturing system. ISO 10218-2:2011 does not deal specifically with hazards associated with processes (e.g. laser radiation, ejected chips, welding smoke). Other standards can be applicable to these process hazards.

ISO 10218-1:2011 specifies requirements and guidelines for the inherent safe design, protective measures and information for use of industrial robots. It describes basic hazards associated with robots and provides requirements to eliminate, or adequately reduce, the risks associated with these hazards.ISO 10218-1:2011 does not address the robot as a complete machine. Noise emission is generally not considered a significant hazard of the robot alone, and consequently noise is excluded from the scope of ISO 10218-1:2011.ISO 10218-1:2011 does not apply to non‑industrial robots, although the safety principles established in ISO 10218 can be utilized for these other robots.
