How to avoid safety issues with robotic palletizers

The automation level of robotic palletizing machines has improved significantly, but their safety issues cannot be underestimated, otherwise there is still a possibility of accidents. In order to ensure that the robot stacker can safely, efficiently, and stably complete the stacking operation, on the one hand, it is necessary to take protective measures for it, and on the other hand, it is also necessary to operate the equipment correctly.

In the process of robot palletizing machine operation, it is not enough to provide reasonable protection for the material outlet, but only to use a warning sign or require isolation workflow. Safety management should be the last step to consider in risk reduction.

When maintenance personnel are repairing the bottom of the robot stacker, if the equipment is not equipped with mechanical locking devices, it is easy to cause crushing damage caused by the falling of the stacker. Therefore, various protective devices are essential for the robot stacker.

For personnel who open the interlocking switch and enter the hazardous area, due to faults in the stacking lifting part, such as chain breakage, if there is no mechanical locking device or check valve in the stacking part, it will cause the danger of the stacking platform falling.

In order to avoid such accidents, in addition to the required safety protection devices, it is strictly prohibited for personnel to open the interlocking switch of the robot stacker and enter the hazardous area without authorization. Every operation of the equipment must be strictly carried out in accordance with the specifications, in order to eliminate safety hazards. Contact Shuhe Machinery.
