ABB Robotics’ SafeMove is a software and electronics based safety controller integrated in their IRC5 robot controller.
By
SafeMove provides safety rated supervision of robot motion, enabling
leaner robot cell solutions and more collaborative applications where
robots and operators can work more closely together. SafeMove delivers
many safety functions and reduces the need for traditional safety
equipment such as light curtains, safety relays, mechanical stops,
mechanical position switches, and protective barriers. SafeMove also
enables more compact cells by restricting robot motion to precisely
what is needed for a specific application, instead of relying on more
inflexible mechanical stops.
