Safety Systems Analysis in Human-Small Industrial Robot Collaboration: ISO/TS 15066 Specification

Öz

During Industry 4.0, collaboration between humans and industrial robots is increasing day by day. Industrial robots carry capacity that could harm humans operate in protected areas and are subject to safety standards. The main purpose of this study is to design experiments, analyze the activities to be done regarding security and monitoring systems in case of collaboration of small industrial robots with power-force limitations with human workers and to examine the studies conducted in recent years in literature. The successful implementation of Physical Human-Robot Interaction in industrial environments depends on ensuring safe collaboration between human operators and robotic devices. This requires an environment that guarantees the safety of human operators without restricting the speed and movement of robots. In this research, the contributions of the specification, which was published by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in February 2016 and are an additional specification to ISO/TS (Robots and robotic devices - Collaborative robots) 15066 and EN ISO 10218 (Robots and robotic devices - Safety requirements for industrial robots), were examined. The research has determined that the use of industrial robots in human-robot collaboration applications is becoming increasingly important. It has been concluded that the disadvantages of humans and robots can be minimized by combining their advantages, human abilities (cognition, adaptation or tactile abilities) can be combined with robots' speed, power or precision, but this development requires new safety measures to protect human integrity, especially when working closely with heavy robots.

İnsan ile Küçük Endüstriyel Robot İşbirliğinde Güvenlik Sistemleri Analizi: ISO/TS 15066 Spesifikasyonu

Öz

Endüstri 4.0 sürecinde, İnsan ve endüstriyel robotların iş birlikleri günden güne artmaktadır. İnsana zarar verebilecek taşıma kapasiteli endüstriyel robotlar, korunaklı alanda çalışır ve güvenlik standartlarına tabii tutulur. Bu çalışmanın temel amacı, deney tasarlama, analiz, güç-kuvvet sınırlamasına sahip küçük endüstriyel robotların, insan çalışanlar ile iş birliği çalışmaları durumunda güvenlik ve izleme sistemleri ile ilgili yapılması gereken faaliyetlerin analiz edilmesi ve literatürde son yıllarda yapılan çalışmaların incelenmesidir. Fiziksel İnsan-Robot Etkileşiminin sanayi ortamlarında başarılı bir şekilde uygulanabilmesi, insan operatörler ile robotik cihazlar arasında güvenli bir iş birliğini sağlamaya bağlıdır. Bu, robotların hızını ve hareketini kısıtlamadan, insan operatörlerin güvenliğini garanti eden bir ortam gerektirir. Bu araştırmada, Şubat 2016'da Uluslararası Standardizasyon Örgütü (ISO) tarafından yayımlanan, ISO/TS (Robotlar ve robotik cihazlar- İşbirlikçi robotlar) 15066 ve EN ISO 10218 (Robotlar ve robotik cihazlar- Endüstriyel robotlar için güvenlik gereklilikleri) için ek niteliğinde olan spesifikasyonun sağladığı katkılar incelenmiştir. Araştırmada, Endüstriyel robotların, insan-robot iş birliğine yönelik uygulamalarda kullanımının giderek daha önemli hale geldiği belirlenmiştir. İnsan ve robotların avantajları birleştirilerek dezavantajlarının minimize edilebileceği, insan yetenekleri (kognisyon, adaptasyon veya dokunsal yetiler) robotların hız, güç veya hassasiyet gibi özellikleriyle birleştirilebileceği ancak bu gelişim, özellikle ağır robotlarla yakın çalışırken insan bütünlüğünü korumak için yeni güvenlik önlemleri gerektirdiği sonuçlarına varılmıştır.
