Robotic Automation Safety Challenges

Robotic cells feature fast, powerful, and repetitive motion that can cause severe injuries from collisions, pinch points, entanglement, or unexpected starts. Human-robot interaction adds complexity, especially with collaborative robots.

Effective guarding protects operators and maintenance staff while allowing safe teaching, programming, and troubleshooting — all while meeting ANSI/RIA R15.06, ISO 10218, and OSHA standards.

We design modular, risk-based guarding solutions tailored to your robot type, payload, speed, application, and facility layout.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is safety guarding important for robotic automation cells? expand_more
Robotic automation cells involve high-speed, repetitive motion that can create serious safety hazards. Proper guarding protects personnel from robotic movement, pinch points, and unexpected system operation while supporting OSHA and ANSI/RIA compliance.
What types of safety guarding are used in robotic automation? expand_more
Robotic automation guarding commonly includes perimeter fencing, interlocked access doors, light curtains, area scanners, and custom machine enclosures based on risk assessment results.
Can safety guarding be customized for collaborative robots? expand_more
Yes. Collaborative robot guarding is customized based on application risk and may involve reduced physical barriers combined with safety-rated sensors and monitoring systems.
What standards do your robotic guarding solutions meet? expand_more
Our designs comply with ANSI/RIA R15.06, ISO 10218, OSHA 1910, and relevant standards for industrial robot safety, including force-limiting and speed-reduced modes for collaborative applications.
