Warehouse Robotics and Automation Safety - Week One
Human-Robot Interaction (HRI) – Staying Safe Around Automation
With more robots entering our warehouse floors, we must stay vigilant about safe interactions between humans and machines. Robots are a valuable asset for productivity, but we must take safety seriously whenever we're near automated equipment, like palletizers and de-palletizers.
We all play a role in keeping things safe. Here are some tips to keep in mind:
Human-Robot Interaction (HRI) – Staying Safe Around Automation
With more robots entering our warehouse floors, we must stay vigilant about safe interactions between humans and machines. Robots are a valuable asset for productivity, but we must take safety seriously whenever we're near automated equipment, like palletizers and de-palletizers.
We all play a role in keeping things safe. Here are some tips to keep in mind:
- Know the Rules: Familiarize yourself with safety standards and protocols at your location—especially those involving human-machine interaction.
- Stay Aware: Only partially rely on sensors to detect human presence. Sensors are an added layer, but they need to be foolproof.
- Check Safety Features: If any safety features malfunction, report them to your supervisor immediately.
- Never Bypass Safety Devices: If a machine jams, notify maintenance and safety; don't attempt a DIY fix.
- Stay Alert to Your Environment: Regularly remind yourself of protocols and safety zones around automated equipment.
As always - be sure to follow the rules and regulations of your specific facility.
Human-robot interaction can be safe and productive if we all stay aware, informed, and follow established procedures.
