Automation… Safety Assumed… (Virtual) (NC State Industry Expansion Solutions)

Automation… Safety Assumed… (Virtual) (NC State Industry Expansion Solutions)

This webinar is for any small-medium size company that is considering automation for the first time, or is looking at I4.0 technologies and is uncertain of the safety implications of such a journey.

The mission of autonomous systems is task execution. Interactions by non-system agents (humans) are not to occur. Light curtains, pressure mats and physical barriers have long been the elements which provide signaling and subsequent safety for workers. Join us as we review technologies that are switching out the old guard and the evolution of the standards that have protected humans from machines for decades. We will see that with new autonomy (cobots, AMRs, AGVs, ALTs, etc.), new safety paradigms emerge, and new standards must be developed. We will investigate old and new standards alike and offer insights on why and how they may impact your operations and decision-making.
