Abstract
Solutions and technologies for cooperation between human and industrial
robots are under a thorough research and development. Human-robot cooperation
relies on reliable and safe robot position handling and human position
awareness. To the both issues there are some solutions in the market already
or they are now under development and coming soon to market. Robot
manufacturers have presented robot controllers, with integrated additional
safety controller. It enables better control over robot position and movements
due to software based functions. Robots movement range can be limited by
freely shaped virtual zones. New safety functions, which are made possible by
safety controllers, are in line with the definitions described in the new ISO
10218-1:2006 standard.
