How can you train personnel to follow robotics safety standards?

由人工智能和领英社区提供技术支持

Robotics safety standards are essential to protect personnel from potential hazards and injuries when working with robots. However, simply having the standards is not enough. You also need to train your staff on how to follow them and why they are important. In this article, we will share some tips on how to design and implement an effective robotics safety training program for your personnel.

1 Identify the risks

When training your personnel, it is important to identify the specific risks that they may face when interacting with robots. These risks can vary depending on the type, size, function, and location of the robots, as well as the tasks and roles of the personnel. For instance, collisions or entrapment by robot arms or tools, electric shock or fire from faulty wiring or components, exposure to harmful substances or radiation from robot processes, and ergonomic or psychological stress from repetitive or monotonous work are all potential risks. To ensure safety, you should conduct a thorough risk assessment of your robotic system and work environment. Additionally, consulting with personnel, safety experts, and robot manufacturers can help you identify and prioritize potential hazards.

For example, if you are implementing a robotic system in a manufacturing facility, one of the identified risks might be the potential for personnel to get their hands or clothing caught in the moving parts of the robot during maintenance or troubleshooting. In response, your training program could include specific modules on safe maintenance procedures, emphasizing the importance of locking out and tagging out equipment, wearing appropriate personal protective equipment, and understanding the robot's emergency stop procedures. This targeted training would directly address the identified risk and equip personnel with the knowledge and skills needed to work safely with the robot in that context.

Training personnel to adhere to robotics safety standards is vital. Begin by identifying potential risks associated with robotic systems. Draw from personal experience to highlight real-world scenarios where safety lapses can occur. Develop and implement comprehensive safety training programs that address these specific risks. Offer practical tips and best practices for safe interaction with robots. Regularly update safety protocols to stay current with technological advancements. By sharing experiences and knowledge, you can foster a culture of safety and prevent accidents in a robotic work environment.

It is crucial to educate staff on the importance of maintaining safety standards in robotics. Start with pinpointing the hazards that robotic systems may pose. Utilize real-life examples to illustrate situations where safety breaches might happen. Create and put into action extensive safety training initiatives tailored to these particular dangers. Provide hands-on advice and established methods for safely engaging with robotic machinery. Continuously revise safety procedures to keep pace with new technological developments. Promoting a safety-conscious atmosphere through the exchange of stories and expertise can help avert mishaps in workplaces that use robotics.

From my experience, it’s always a good idea to ensure the robot is rehomed properly. In some cases robots will have a fault of some sort and the operator doesn’t rehome the robot in the correct sequence causing the robot to either damage nearby equipment or worst case scenario, hurt the operator themselves if they are using the joy stick inside the guarded cage.

2 Develop the curriculum

The next step is to develop a curriculum that covers the relevant topics and skills for your personnel. This curriculum should incorporate both theoretical and practical components, and cover the purpose and benefits of robotics safety standards, legal and ethical obligations, safety rules and procedures for operating, maintaining, and troubleshooting robots, potential hazards and risks associated with robots, the use of personal protective equipment (PPE) and emergency devices, and the reporting and documentation of incidents and near misses. Additionally, you should consider tailoring the curriculum to meet the needs of your personnel, such as their level of experience, education, language, and learning style.

Develop the curriculum, but don't let it stagnate. Cohort feedback is invaluable; use it to iteratively improve the curriculum. Incorporate insights from key stakeholders and regulators to stay ahead in the dynamic field of robotics. Ensure your training program remains responsive to the ever-changing demands of safety standards.

3 Deliver the training

The third step is to deliver engaging, interactive, and effective training to your personnel. You should use a variety of methods and materials, such as lectures and presentations, videos and animations, demonstrations and simulations, quizzes and tests, case studies and scenarios, and games and exercises. Additionally, you should provide feedback and reinforcement to your personnel, encouraging them to ask questions and share their experiences. To ensure that the training is accessible, convenient, and flexible for your personnel, you should have enough resources and equipment to support the training.

4 Evaluate the training

The final step is to evaluate the training to measure its impact and effectiveness. To do this, you should use both quantitative and qualitative methods such as surveys and interviews, observations and inspections, performance and competency assessments, incident and accident statistics, and cost-benefit analysis. Additionally, you should collect and analyze the data from the evaluation to identify the strengths and weaknesses of the training, as well as any areas for improvement. Finally, it is important to communicate the results and feedback to your personnel, so that any necessary changes or updates to the training can be implemented.

Be aware of the robot's range of motion and stay out of its way. Personnel should never enter a robot's work area while the robot is in operation.
