00:00:08,220 --> 00:00:09,360
Welcome back guys.

2
00:00:09,360 --> 00:00:12,300
In this video we're going to

3
00:00:12,540 --> 00:00:16,440
look at the safety aspects of

4
00:00:17,760 --> 00:00:20,480
running the Fanuc robot arm.

5
00:00:21,480 --> 00:00:25,340
I mean, as I rightly said
from the previous video,

6
00:00:25,500 --> 00:00:30,080
the sheer force with which these work with

7
00:00:30,260 --> 00:00:35,700
and is very important that we take health
and safety very seriously.

8
00:00:36,180 --> 00:00:39,140
And so I showed you

9
00:00:39,180 --> 00:00:41,600
a bit of first one here whereby

10
00:00:42,360 --> 00:00:45,740
this is housed in a cell,
a safety cell usually called,

11
00:00:47,140 --> 00:00:50,040
and well, this cap here,

12
00:00:50,340 --> 00:00:53,720
they in parts of wall, they network.

13
00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:57,700
And so if this robot arm

14
00:00:57,840 --> 00:01:00,500
is set to run in auto mode,

15
00:01:01,460 --> 00:01:06,580
then automatically
no one will be able to open the cell

16
00:01:06,580 --> 00:01:10,820
because this is actually set
as a safety measure.

17
00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:16,260
So that obviously prevents any kind of
unfortunate incidents or any injury.

18
00:01:16,700 --> 00:01:19,620
Now, every robot cell will have

19
00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:22,940
a control panel and a teach pendant.

20
00:01:23,300 --> 00:01:26,300
On the control panel
you have an emergency button,

21
00:01:26,300 --> 00:01:31,280
whether you put the operator in mode
in auto or T1 or hundred percent,

22
00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:37,500
T2, nothing will appear
because your emergency button is off.

23
00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:40,500
Now, this is where we turn everything on.

24
00:01:40,820 --> 00:01:44,500
For the purposes of this demonstration,
because it takes a while to turn on

25
00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:46,220
so I'm not going to turn it off.

26
00:01:46,220 --> 00:01:50,540
But we will see, we can see that
the emergency button is off.

27
00:01:51,300 --> 00:01:57,200
So that is one kind of safety
aspect as well put in place.

28
00:01:57,740 --> 00:02:00,900
On even on the teach
pendant itself, you have,

29
00:02:00,980 --> 00:02:04,460
you can see that
there is an off and on button here.

30
00:02:05,060 --> 00:02:09,260
Now, this is also extra measure
to ensure that before

31
00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:12,960
anything is executed, you know,

32
00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:17,900
we are sure that everything is set,
everything is in the right kind of order.

33
00:02:18,260 --> 00:02:23,380
On the teach pendant itself, apart
from the on and off switch,

34
00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:26,840
we have also got the emergency button
there, as you can see.

35
00:02:27,380 --> 00:02:31,640
Now, one thing that is also very important

36
00:02:32,100 --> 00:02:36,380
that apart from all these
that they have also included,

37
00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:39,300
is at the back here
you can see two yellow.

38
00:02:39,900 --> 00:02:42,620
Now, this is what we call
the Deadman Switch.

39
00:02:43,100 --> 00:02:47,180
So the moment you release it,
it stops everything.

40
00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:53,140
So because usually one will operate
using your teach pendant in your arm

41
00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:58,700
to move either to increase speed
or to automate your robot arm.

42
00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:03,920
And so apart from all these measures that
we've spoken about or we've talked about,

43
00:03:04,640 --> 00:03:08,480
they've also included the dead man switch,
one on the left

44
00:03:08,640 --> 00:03:11,680
and then one on the right hand side,
depending on obviously

45
00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:15,780
which hand you use and whether you're
right handed or you are left handed.

46
00:03:16,140 --> 00:03:21,540
So if any, in terms of any emergency
quickly release that everything stops.

47
00:03:21,900 --> 00:03:26,120
Usually in auto mode,
the cell is closed for extra safety,

48
00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:29,280
safety measure
because of the high speed with which

49
00:03:29,700 --> 00:03:32,460
the arm will be running with.

50
00:03:32,460 --> 00:03:32,780
Right.

51
00:03:32,780 --> 00:03:38,060
So, guys, just a quick recap
over our safety measures.

52
00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:42,080
As I rightly said, this is the main button
to turn our control,

53
00:03:42,260 --> 00:03:44,480
the power unit, on.

54
00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:48,120
Now, before we turn it on,

55
00:03:48,420 --> 00:03:53,460
we ensure that our emergency buttons
are in the off position.

56
00:03:54,620 --> 00:03:55,640
Similarly, on the

57
00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:58,880
teach pendant,
it is also in the off position

58
00:03:59,420 --> 00:04:03,680
and the actual off
and on button for the teach

59
00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:08,640
pendant is also in the off position,
as you can rightly see.

60
00:04:09,140 --> 00:04:14,840
You will have to then pull them out
obviously to be able to then carry out

61
00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:19,040
any kind of work program or movement

62
00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:22,560
that you want to use the arm for.

63
00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:28,580
We're going to look at how to run a simple
or program it

64
00:04:29,220 --> 00:04:32,920
the demo and how to run a simple
demo, in our next video.
