Risk assessment
You might say: hazard analysis
Risk assessment identifies hazards and tasks, estimates risk, applies risk-reduction measures, and records residual risk.
- What it does
- Selects safeguards, limits, and safety functions before commissioning and after significant changes.
- Ask
- Are every intended and foreseeable task, contact, and residual risk documented?

It requires the most extensive risk assessment since the robot is able to continue with its task as an operator stays within reach of the robot.

Robots with collaborative safety functions can be used safely in applications after a risk assessment and measurements to ensure that the cobot safety functions are properly set.
