The purpose of D16.3M/D16.3:2009, Risk Assessment Guide forRobotic Arc Welding, is to identify and evaluate potentialsafety hazards associated with robotic arc welding. It is notintended to be a guideline for other robotic applications. Thisguide is intended for persons performing risk assessment andapplies to arc welding robots and robot arc welding systemsperforming the gas metal arc welding (GMAW) or flux cored arcwelding (FCAW) process.
It is not intended to be a guideline for other roboticapplications, such as:
(1) Automatic guided vehicle systems,
(2) Undersea and space robots,
(3) Automatic conveyor and shuttle systems,
(4) Teleoperators,
(5) Mobile robots, and
(6) Multiple robots.
This standard makes use of both the International System ofUnits (SI) and U.S. Customary Units. The latter are shown withinbrackets ([ ]) or in appropriate columns in tables and figures. Themeasurements may not be exact equivalents; therefore, each systemmust be used independently.
The inclusion of all safety, health issues, and concerns arebeyond the scope of any one document and therefore are not fullyaddressed herein. Safety and health information is available fromother sources, including, but not limited to, ANSI Z49.1,Safety in Welding, Cutting, and Allied Processes, andapplicable federal and state regulations.
