Case Study 2: Automotive Component Lubrication Robotics
Correct.
The unjamming operation does not take place during normal production operations. The
operation takes place while the robot is shut down and the robot is not performing its
intended production function. By opening the gate and entering the fenced area, the
employee is bypassing the safety device and exposing himself to injury from the unexpected
start up of the equipment.
