Risk Assessment
Students attending this seminar will be guided through each stage of a risk assessment as called out in the ANSI/RIA R15.06-1999 Robot Safety Standard.  They will learn to:  identify necessary tasks, identify possible hazards, determine risk reduction requirements, reason possible solutions to reduce risk, validate proposed solutions and document the risk assessment.

R15.06 Safety Standard Compliance
This seminar gives students a very thorough introduction to all of the essential information contained in the ANSI/RIA R15.06-1999 Robot Safety Standard.  They will learn the basic safety guidelines for robotic applications, identify key elements of the robot safety standard and apply provisions of the standard in daily operations.   Seminar includes an introduction on the ANSI/RIA/ISO 10218-1-2007 Standard highlighting the differences.

Fundamentals of Robotics (custom seminar)
The perfect seminar for the new robot user, you'll learn about the basic operation of robots, definitions of robotic terms, controller and system reliability, system layout, assessment methods, applicable standards and third party certification.

Robot Risk Assessment Version 5 (designsafe® 5)

Robot Risk AssessmentA special welcome to Robot Risk Assessment users. This program was built on the  Robot Risk Assesment V2 platform. Today businesses are becoming increasingly integrated with robots, packaging machinery and other equipment operating side by side. Companies need greater flexibility in how they assess risks. The Packaging Machinery Manufacturers Institute (PMMI) and the Robotic Industries Association (RIA) have joined with design safety engineering, inc. to introduce  Robot Risk Assessment V5 and to gain the many improvements made in risk assessment software. With Robot Risk Assessment V5 you can assess risks with the method(s) most appropriate to your situation and achieve great flexibility in how you conduct risk assessments.

Robot Risk Assessment Version 5-Floating License
The Robot Risk Assessment Floating License (also called a Concurrent User License) is a Network Floating License that allows any number of Robot Risk Assessment installations to share a single product license but limits the number of concurrent users. For example, a workgroup using a Floating License for 2 concurrent users may have 10 or more Robot Risk Assessment installations on computers throughout their location but a maximum of 2 users will be able to use designsafe at the same time.

This license is 'in addition to' the single seat license of Robot Risk Assessment V5.  All purchases of the Floating License will be verified of Version 5 upgrade prior to shipment.

Upgrade to Version 5.0 is available...visit the Robot Safety Resources section of the Robotics Online Bookstore.
