Technological developments in the field of collaborative robotics lead to the emergence of physical
assistance robots (PAR). In this context, Ferry Captain Foundry has decided to integrate a PAR for the finishing
tasks in order to maintain active…

Physical assistant robots, for which contact between a human being and the robot is intended, have now been joined by collaborative industrial robots that share the work space of the operating personnel. This raises the question of unintended…

Significant developments in robotics and protective device technologies have benefited the field of work equipment. As a result, a new type of machine has appeared in industry: collaborative robots, or “cobots”. Standard EN ISO 10218:2011 respecting…

The arrival on the market of a new type of press, the "servo-motor press", raises questions as regards occupational risks. Since they operate differently from presses using conventional technologies, investigations need to be conducted to analyse…

Servomotor presses are innovative machines and their sales are increasing. Development of servomotors and the recent arrival on the market of power drive systems, featuring so-called “pre-defined” safety functions, have contributed to their…

Servopresses are innovative machines whose sales are increasing. The evolution of servomotors and recent arrival on the market of power drive systems including safety functions have contributed to their emergence. For example, servomotors…

This article proposes a method of choosing sensitive protective equipment (SPE). Incorporated into an overall risk reduction approach like the one proposed by Standard NF EN ISO 12100, it is based firstly on a need specification phase that is essential…

Every year, employees are the victims of collisions with vehicles in accidents that can be serious and even fatal. In recent years, a range of pedestrian and obstacle detection systems have been developed for vehicles. These systems are often installed…

The issue of collisions between plant or site vehicles and pedestrians concerns numerous sectors of activity. Lack of visibility for drivers over their direct environments is one of the main causes of such accidents, which are often serious…
