6 Decommissioning
6.1. Introduction
Introduction
This section contains information to consider when taking a product, robot or controller, out
of operation.
It deals with how to handle potentially dangerous components and potentially hazardous
materials.
General
All used grease/oils and dead batteries must be disposed of in accordance with the current
legislation of the country in which the robot and the control unit are installed.
If the robot or the control unit is partially or completely disposed of, the various parts must
be grouped together according to their nature (that is, all iron together and all plastic
together), and disposed of accordingly. These parts must also be disposed of in accordance
with the current legislation of the country in which the robot and control unit are installed.
