Standards Under Fire: Robot Safety Under Pressure of Complexity

Format:Video conferencingTrack:Präsentationen

MODERATION: Michael Rathmair, Joanneum Research
Speaker: Anette Wester-Odbratt, Christian Loidl, Roland Behrens

Robotic systems are evolving faster than ever, and complexity is skyrocketing. This session puts robot safety standards under fire, examining how they must adapt to keep pace with new technologies and industrial applications. Drawing on ISO TC 299 reports and emerging trends, we highlight new directions in standardization and explore the requirements and verification methods needed to guarantee compliance in today’s robot applications.

Talk 1: ISO TC 299 WG 3 – Shaping the Future of Safety in Industrial Robot Applications, Anette Wester.

Talk 2: Requires an upgrade of machines by robots, always new safety functions at the interfaces? Christian Loidl, TeLo GmbH

Talk 3: Ongoing Standardization Activities for Reducing the Complexity of Collaborative Safety, Roland Behrens, Fraunhofer-Institut für Fabrikbetrieb und -automatisierung IFF
