The emergency stop switch of industrial robots is usually installed in the following prominent and easy to operate positions:
Installation location
Near the operation panel:
The emergency stop button is usually installed on the robot control panel or near the operator for quick access and operation. This ensures that in emergency situations, the operator can immediately stop the machine.
2. Surrounding the workstation:
Install emergency stop buttons at multiple locations in the robot work area to ensure that anyone working in that area can easily reach them. This allows anyone to quickly trigger the emergency stop device in the event of an emergency.
3. Equipment inlet and outlet:
Install emergency stop buttons at equipment entrances and exits, especially in areas where materials or personnel enter or exit, to ensure immediate shutdown in case of accidents.
On the mobile control device:
Some industrial robots are equipped with portable control devices (such as hanging controllers), which are usually equipped with emergency stop buttons to stop the machine at any time during movement.
● Starting method
1. Press the emergency stop button:
The emergency stop button is usually in the shape of a red mushroom head. To activate the emergency stop device, the operator only needs to press the emergency stop button. After pressing the button, the robot will immediately stop all movements, cut off the power, and the system will enter a safe state.
2. Rotation reset or pull-out reset:
On some models of emergency stop buttons, it is necessary to reset them by rotating or pulling them out. After the emergency state is lifted, the operator needs to perform this step to restart the robot.
3. Monitoring system alarm:
Modern industrial robots are usually equipped with monitoring systems. When the emergency stop button is pressed, the system will sound an alarm, display the emergency stop status, and record the time and location of triggering the emergency stop.
These steps and installation positions are designed to ensure that industrial robots can be quickly and safely stopped in any emergency situation, protecting the safety of operators and equipment.
