Design and Validation of a Mobile Robot's Safety Functions in Accordance with EN ISO 13849

Track

Production

Description

Enova Robotics' mobile robots incorporate safety functions such as emergency stops, Safe Torque Off (STO) for motor drives, obstacle detection, and battery protection. The current architecture is designed for deployment in controlled-access environments.

Expanding into public environments, where untrained individuals may be present, requires higher performance levels and additional safety functions.

Objective

Design, calculate, and validate an advanced PLd safety architecture for an autonomous mobile robot operating in public environments. The architecture will integrate Safe Limited Speed (SLS), dynamic protective fields, and a dedicated safety controller, while demonstrating compliance with EN ISO 13849-1/-2.
