…the rigorous quality management and quality assurance standards of ISO 9001:2015 to obtain certification from TUV Rhineland of North America. The additive manufacturing company said the certification will help streamline the supplier audit process. “Reliability is key for additive manufacturing. We're trying to help manufacturers meet traditional standards of quality, accuracy, strength, etc.,” Shai Terem, president and CEO of Markforged, told Robotics 24/7. “Without industry certification, that effort has been done application by application, one customer at a time.” Markforged said its Digital Forge is designed to enable manufacturers of all sizes to create robust, end-use parts in both metal…

…in a cleanroom that is classification 1 according to ISO 14644-1, in which components such as semiconductors are manufactured? By themselves, the numbers (per cubic meter, there may be no more than 400 particles that are between 0.5 and 1μm) do not communicate much. To make them meaningful, we need a comparison. One cubic meter of city air contains between 15 and 100 million particles of various sizes, and clean mountain air contains 10 million particles per cubic meter. In one cubic meter of air next to a smoker, there are up to 100 million particles larger than 0.5μm. This…

…robot manufacturers are adopting voluntary safety standards such as ISO 10218 to ensure peace of mind and avoid liability. That international standard covers a range of systems, including personal care robots, industrial automation, automated guided vehicles or AGVs, and collaborative robots. The standards themselves are evolving to keep up with the latest technologies. In addition, advances in robotic perception and software are increasing the safety and utility of these machines.

…optimized high-performance plastics and works almost particle-free according to ISO Class 2 even in high-speed applications. It is also stronger and more user-friendly than classic corrugated hoses. In electronics production, tiny particles invisible to the naked eye can wreak havoc, ruining electronic components, semiconductors, and displays. Therefore, it’s critical that machines like SCARA robots, which move rapidly along four axes in under a second, generate as little friction and contamination as possible. During these high-speed applications, there is always a risk that tiny particles will detach from corrugated hoses and tubes. Maintaining ultra-clean manufacturing conditions is essential to prevent microscopic…

…Liu, KTH Context awareness said to be better than ISO standard Liu noted that the new technology came out before the latest International Organization for Standards (ISO) requirements for collaborative robot safety, so implementation would require industrial action. But the context awareness offers better efficiency than the one-dimensional interaction workers now experience with robots, he claimed. “Under the ISO standard and technical specification, when a human approaches a robot, it slows down, and if he or she comes close enough, it will stop,” he said. “If the person moves away, it resumes. That's a pretty low level of context awareness.”…
