Abstract:
Safety associated with automated systems is a growing concern in industry today. As mechanization replaces manual functions, apprehension builds regarding potential hazards. These may be either inherent with the automation or conditional in the event of a single failure. Components for vehicle systems are available today that can result in systems with a high degree of performance and an outstanding safety record. The system users must know the capabilities and limitations of the equipment. Total characteristics of safety-related devices should be understood prior to system implementation. This paper presents a review of safety-related components and techniques available in the AGV industry today. The characteristics and limitations of each are also identified. (Available through the Society of Manufacturing Engineers in Dearborn, Michigan).
