Pressure and Force Limit Analysis
Measurement tests according to ISO/TS 15066
Within collaborative robot applications where there exists direct interaction between a human operator and a robot, collisions between the two cannot be overlooked, but rather expected as a reasonable foreseeable event. ISO/TS 15066 specifies the safety requirements for collaborative robot systems and the work environment, and also provides further guidance on collaborative industrial robot requirements given in ISO 10218. Among these specifications are the permissible limits for force and pressure deriving from the collaborate robot and are described as transient and quasi-static forces. Our Engineering Services group can perform the necessary pressure and force limit measurements on collaborative robots, and provide analysis of the results.
