Integrated Safety Technology


Smart Safe Reaction - It doesn't al-ways have to be downtimeConventional safety technology has meant stopping the entire machine group when even the smallest distur-bance occurs. B&R's Smart Safe Reac-tion uses a completely new approach. Flexible safety functions such as Safe Direction or Safely Limited Increment are integral parts of the drive system and allow service work to be per-formed during operation. This mini-mizes the time and effort required for service and installation work and also eliminates the motivation to manipu-late the system.

Virtual wiring - Safety at the click of a mouseSafety shutdowns were handled using �� now implemented using virtual wiring

�� blocks are placed and connected in the graphic editor for this purpose. Even extremely complex relationships can be handled clearly and easily in � �� identical copy of the safety applica-tion is processed in the safe control-ler. This completely eliminates wiring errors during series production. Com-�� -duced. The safe PLC provides options that were never possible with real wir-ing.

Safe wiring made easyIntelligent tests integrated in the mod-�� !��thereby eliminating safety risks for ev-ery meter of cable. The use of shield-ed cables or expensive protected lines is outdated. The testing patterns

generated for the tests identify each channel individually. All diagnosed wiring errors can be called up via the network and also referenced during remote diagnostics.

Integrated yet separateA clear separation of components and applications is incredibly impor-�� "�� "�� "�� "� ��"�� -nology and standard automation components. Anyone using the prod-ucts must always be 100% certain of whether they are currently working in the safety-related or standard environ-ment. This is why B&R clearly sepa-rates safety technology from standard technology:

� Separate safe CPU � Different housing coding for SafeIO � Separate password management

in Automation Studio � Isolated engineering interface in

Automation Studio This physical separation also makes it possible to select a cost-optimized stan-dard CPU independent of the safe CPU.

Avoid service stress concerning safetyWhat are the consequences if a single DIP switch on the safe rotation speed monitor has the wrong setting? What happens if a 6 A switching device is replaced by one with 4 A? Your ser-#�� error and the safety of the machine is �� $()�� -tem takes over responsibility for a

A fast response is a good response�� "��response times of less than 6 ms have been limited to a few compact control-lers on the market - without integra-��$()� �� only supplier to offer this performance with distributed SafeIO or SafeMC via the machine bus and with all the ad-vantages of integrated safety.

When safe data starts travelingSafety technology requires a large amount of data and parameters. Why

is this data allowed to be transported �� *�+ ��,/+2�� time capable and open safety bus system currently on the market. Data is stored and duplicated in a sophis-

ticated safety container that provides �� -dental replacement and delay. As a re-��"�� #��#��3��remote diagnostics applications and safety technology use the same data on the bus.

Prevent a false diagnosisDiagnostics are necessary to ensure the right actions are taken when errors occur. Integrated safety technology at B&R allows complete diagnosis of the safety technology and the standard automation components being used. This also includes special information pertaining to the safety environment such as two-channel evaluation or an extensive logbook containing safety-related events. Access is also possible using remote diagnostics.

SafeMC - Drive with feeling

Today's safety technology is rigid �� "�� \�� "�� K��to slimmed down automation that �� -�� of safety technology seems archaic �� + �� \��-ibility often demands safety fences �� time-intensive and complicated work sequences that further reduce a sys-tem's productivity.

openSAFETY sets technical standardsThere are a number of new approach-�� "�� #�� \�� standards and slow response times. The ACOPOSmulti drive system is different. Here the approach is sys-tematically based on openSAFETY �� <^/)@7K_�� H��

�� 7@� �� #�� "�openSAFETY with the strict yet high-performance real-time behavior of �<^/)@7K_�"�� "��SafeMC.

Functions such as Safely Limited Speed are enabled directly over the network. Wiring these safety-related signals to the drive is now a thing of the past. The information is collected right from its source via safe digital

inputs. The information is then distrib-uted to the respective actuators - the drive in this case - via a safe central �� "�@<G7H��+ �� ,/+2�� "�� available directly in the standard CPU; the standard application is then syn-chronized automatically with the safe-ty application.

openSAFETY also provides for safe parameter assignment. During boot-�� are checked against the data on the ��"�@<G7H��#��7"�� [�� the data is transferred to the module securely via the openSAFETY service. This relieves technicians from the re-sponsibility of always having to con-�� "��maintenance.

Extensive safety functionsA complete set of safety functions that conform to the IEC 61800-5 safety standard have been implemented in the SafeMC module. They allow even � �� "�� "� ��#�� -cations to be represented. Even the special operating modes explicitly re-quired in the standards such as main-��#�-tion are easy to implement as a result.

SafeROBOTICS - Robots without cells

One long-term objective for safe ro-botics is the development of an in-dustrial robot that is safe enough to work hand in hand with its human colleagues without requiring any sort of separator to provide protection. Af-ter the integration of safety-oriented controller and drive technology using ��,/+2�� this goal is the safe monitoring of the entire kinematic chain. As with any-� �� #�� "�� -�� "�� ,�� "��this has to do with the movements �"�� #��7�� "�� lasers or water jets in cutting applica-tions need to be taken into consider-ation.

Requirement 2: SafeMCMonitoring axis and arm movements as well as mastering braking and stop-ping distances are just as important as actual sequential control when it comes to the safety of robotic sys-tems. Integrating safety technology directly into servo drives and motors resulted in a reduction of the time it takes to detect and respond to errors from the typical 80 ms (using safety circuits with cut-off relays) down to 7 ��factor of 100. This means a reduction in the safety clearance when traveling � �� reduces the total dimensions of the robot cell itself. A clear advantage of �� "�� #�� -�� "��)�� $H�(Safe Brake Control) and SLS (Safely Limited Speed) offers countless alter-natives to just shutting off all the ma-chines. This more gentle mechanism �� prevents robots from being damaged as a result of safety shutdowns.

Logical consequence: The kinematic chainThe next step to increasing robotic safety currently under development has to do with applying Smart Safe Reaction technology not just at the ��#��"�� -ing movement at the tool center point �+H��7�� "�the safe response within the entire kinematic chain must take into con-sideration all the different possible movements and eventualities that can occur.
