Force and Pressure Testing of Impact / Crushing in Cobots

Description

In machinery with Cobots working in collaborative mode, it must be ensured that any risks of operators being impacted or crushed must be below the thresholds indicated by the standard in force and pressure terms.
Therefore these impacts and/or crushing must be measured with real tests.
Before carrying out these tests, a biomechanical study of the possible impacts and/or crushing is required to indicate which parts of the human body are likely to be impacted or crushed.

Specifications

The tests are based on the following standard:

• ISO/TS 15066 Robots and robotic devices -- Collaborative Robots (Cobots).

Examples

Examples of the measuring equipment and of the inspection report are shown below:

Scope of inspection

The tests can be the following:

• Force test in N (maximum 500N).
• Pressure Test in N/N/cm2.
