One Vital Supervises Whole Robot Cell

The cell consists of dynamic safety devices connected to Vital with the following function:

• Two loading stations.
  In each loading station a light curtain checks if somebody puts his hands into the hazardous zone and Eden sensors check if the robot is in the same zone. This means that a stop is only given if the robot and the person are in the same zone. When a station is ready the person presses the reset button connected to the light curtain.

• Fence with an interlocked door using Eden.
  If somebody enters the door the robot is stopped. In order to start the robot the door has to be closed and a supervised reset to the Vital has to be made.
• Three E-stops with Tina adaptors.
  If pressed stops the robot directly.
