As robots evolve and interact more and more with humans, it is imperative to improve the safety of personnel working with these "collaborative robots" (cobots)
This course allows you to assess the safety of a collaborative robotic work cell and prevent the chances of injury or damage
Provides industry-approved safety standards, technical reporting recommendations and best practices from the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), the Association of Robotic Industries (RIA), and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA)
Students are introduced to the similarities and differences between traditional robots, cobots, and conventional machinery before delving into risk assessments, robot accident causes, and collaborative applications
The material also includes key design techniques to reduce collision forces and a methodology for safety testing.
The main concepts are provided through videos, demos and practical exercises
