Zones Around Robot
Area close to the robot but still out of reach
cautionary zone
The unit of voltage
volts
The three R's of robotics
robots, require, respect
How much current could flow in a system with 100 ohms of resistance powered by 120 volts?
1.2 amps
The E-stop is used to power up the robot?
False - It is an emergency stop used to shut down the robot
The area where anyone could travel around the robot.
safe zone
The unit of amperage or current
amps
Define voltage
The force that drives electricity through the system; the greater the voltage, the greater the driving force.
How many volts (V) would it take to push 3 amps (I) through 100 ohms of resistance (R)?
300 volts
Common path for electricity through the body is finger to the same hand?
False - hand to foot
Another name for the work envelope
danger zone
The units of resistance
ohms
Equation for power
P = VxI = Volts x Amperage or Current
Equation for voltage
V = I x R = amperage or current x resistance
Guards are devices designed to protect people from the dangers of a robotic system?
True
Area where the operator often performs his or her tasks around the robot
safe zone
Equation for amperage or current
I = V/R = Volts/Resistance
Define amperage or current
Measurement of how many electrons, or how much electricity, is flowing through a system
What is the resistance (R) of a system that allows 4 amps (I) to pass through when powered by 120 volts (V)?
30 ohms
Elvis Presley was born in Memphis, Tennessee?
False - Tupelo, Mississippi
Area where you are required by OSHA to have the teach pendent
danger zone
Equation for resistance
R = V/I = Volts/Amps
Define electricity
Flow of electrons from a point with more electrons to a place with fewer electrons
What voltage (V) is required to push 20 A (I) past 24 ohms (R)?
480 volts
Metal mesh is a common name for guarding?
True
