Why Safety Planning Cannot Be an Afterthought
Deploying a robot without a structured safety review creates liability risks, potential injuries, and project delays when issues surface during commissioning. A systematic pre-deployment checklist ensures compliance with ISO 10218 and ISO/TS 15066 standards while establishing clear operational boundaries.
The 12-Point Safety Checklist
This checklist covers risk assessment documentation, workspace boundary programming, speed and force limit configuration, emergency stop placement and testing, protective device verification, operator training requirements, maintenance scheduling, contact force measurement, payload capacity verification, cable routing inspection, software watchdog confirmation, and incident reporting procedures.
- Risk assessment document signed off
- Emergency stops tested from every operator position
- Force limits configured per ISO/TS 15066
- Safety-rated monitored stop verified
- Operator training completed and documented
