WARNING
If a load is positioned incorrectly on a shelf, the load may fall off. Nearby
personnel or equipment risk injury or damage.
•
Ensure that each load is positioned correctly on the shelf. It is the
responsibility of the commissioner to determine correct and safe methods
of loading shelves.
•
Conduct a brake test while the robot is transporting a fully loaded shelf—
see
Making a brake test on page 150
.
WARNING
If the robot attempts to dock to a shelf and the carrier pins are raised or the
robot is misplaced, the robot may push the shelf. The shelf may collide with
personnel or equipment, resulting in injury or damage.
•
Ensure that docking positions are clearly marked as operating hazard zones
with visible tape or similar marking, and that all personnel are instructed
not to stand close to the robot when it is docking.
WARNING
If the robot does not attach to the shelf correctly due to pins being offset from
their correct positions, the shelf can detach at any time. Uncertain control of
the shelf may result in the shelf or its load colliding with personnel or
equipment resulting in injury or damage.
•
Ensure the shelf is designed according to specifications—see
. The laser scanners will then be able to detect if
the shelf is incorrectly positioned and will enter Protective stop before
operating with the shelf.
