Safety-rated monitored stop

A safety-rated monitored stop is a collaborative operating method in which the robot halts and the stop condition is continuously monitored by the safety system while a person is in the collaborative workspace, without removing drive power. If the monitored stop condition is violated, a protective stop is triggered. It allows an operator to enter the workspace to load parts or inspect work, with automatic motion resuming only after the person leaves.
