Adept Cobra PLC600/PLC800 Robot User’s Guide, Rev C 25
Impact and Trapping Points
Adept robots are capable of moving at high speeds. If a person is struck by a robot
(impacted) or trapped (pinched), death or serious injury could occur. Robot configuration,
joint speed, joint orientation, and attached payload all contribute to the total amount of
energy available to cause injury.
Instructions for Emergency Movement without Drive Power
In an emergency, when power is removed from the system, the arm can be moved
manually. The Joint 3 Brake release button must be pressed to enable Joint 3 movement.
Emergency Recovery Procedures
In an emergency, follow your internal procedures for emergency recovery of systems.
DANGER: The robot system must be installed to avoid
interference with buildings, structures, utilities, other
machines and equipment that may create a trapping
hazard or pinch points.
