IS/ISO 10218 : Part 2 : 2025 Robotics - Safety Requirements - Part 2 Industrial Robot Applications and Robot Cells
[Superseding IS 14530 (Part 2) : 2019]
NATIONAL FOREWORD
This Indian Standard (Part 2) which is identical to ISO 10218-2 : 2025 'Robotics - Safety requirements - Part 2 Industrial robot applications and robot cells' issued by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards on the recommendation of the Industrial Automation Systems and Robotics Sectional Committee and approval of the Production and General Engineering Division Council.
The Indian Standards on safety requirements for industrial robots and systems was first published in 1998 and subsequently revised in 2019 as IS 14530 (Part 1) and IS 14530 (Part 2). Considering the widespread recognition of the ISO 10218 series, it has been decided to supersede the IS 14530 series with the IS/ISO 10218 series.
This series of Indian Standards has been created in recognition of the hazards that are presented by robots when they are integrated and installed with end-effectors into robot applications and robot cells. IS/ISO 10218-1 , addresses robots as partly completed machines, while this standard addresses robots integrated into complete machines for specific robot applications.
This standard has been published in two parts. The other parts in this series are:
Part 1 Industrial robots
The text of ISO standard has been approved as suitable for publication as an Indian Standard without deviations. Certain conventions are, however, not identical to those used in Indian Standards. Attention is particularly drawn to the following:
a) Wherever the words 'International Standard' appear referring to this standard, they should be read as 'Indian Standard'; and
b) Comma (,) has been used as a decimal marker while in Indian Standards, the current practice is to use a point (.) as the decimal marker.
