MiR500 is intended to be used with top modules supported by Mobile Industrial Robots or
custom modules that:
•
Do not have any moving parts.
•
Do not extend the physical dimensions of the robot.
•
Operate within the environmental conditions required for MiR500.
•
Are within the weight distribution requirements—see your robot's user guide.
If used with custom modules, all obligations of a manufacturer apply to the individual who
performs the modifications in accordance with the machinery directive.
