The diagram identifies interface dependencies only; the customer remains responsible for system-level risk assessment and final safety validation.

Describe Your Safety Circuit Requirements Request Engineering Files

A complete system drawing is not required. Start with the subsystem, interfaces, operating limits and available documents.

SYSTEM OVERVIEW

What this subsystem includes

Treat safety devices, logic, outputs and documentation as one interface chain while keeping the final machine safety assessment outside this capability.

01

Input devices

Emergency stops, scanners, bumper edges and interlocks establish the input-side interface context.

02

Safety logic

A safety relay or controller defines how documented input and reset signals reach safe outputs.

03

Safe outputs

Safety I/O and drive-side enable or safe-stop interfaces must be mapped to the selected hardware.

04

Documentation boundary

Wiring, interface and validation responsibilities must be stated without implying complete machine approval.

STARTING POINT

What to define first

Start with the intended robot operation, selected safety devices and the boundary of the safety function that the customer needs documented.

Operating context

Describe the robot application, operating modes and the safety requirements supplied by the customer.

Device architecture

List the E-stop, scanner, bumper, interlock, relay or controller hardware already selected.

I/O and drive interfaces

Provide safety I/O, reset, status and drive enable or safe-stop interface references.

Validation boundary

State which documents are requested and which system-level validation activities remain with the customer.

INTERFACE DEPENDENCIES

How safety devices connect to robot motion

A change in a scanner, interlock or emergency-stop interface can affect safety I/O, reset behavior, drive-side safe-stop connections and the evidence required for customer validation.

INTEGRATION DECISIONS

Safety circuit decisions that shape the request

These decisions define the interfaces and documentation to review without representing an independent system risk assessment.

01

Device and circuit architecture

Identify the devices, safety logic hardware and documented circuit relationships.

02

Interfaces and I/O

Map input, reset, status and safe-output interfaces to the selected components.

03

Stop and reset context

Describe the required stop response and reset conditions without assuming final safety-function validation.

04

Evidence and responsibility

Separate requested wiring and interface records from customer-owned risk assessment and validation.

PREPARE YOUR REQUIREMENTS

Describe your safety circuit requirements

Provide the intended operating context and safety-interface information already selected for the robot or cell.

Describe Your Safety Circuit Requirements
  • Robot application and operating modes
  • Customer-defined safety requirements
  • E-stop, scanner, bumper and interlock devices
  • Safety relay or controller and safety I/O
  • Drive enable or safe-stop interface references
  • Requested wiring, interface and compliance documents

AVAILABLE SUPPORT

What EmbodyStack can support

Support is limited to documented device interfaces, I/O relationships and requested engineering records.

  • Safety interface checklist
  • Safety I/O and wiring document request
  • Related capability recommendation
  • Controlled file request status
  • RFQ-ready safety circuit summary

BOUNDARIES

What this capability does not cover

  • This capability does not constitute a system-level risk assessment or approval of the customer’s complete machine.
  • Functional-safety validation, safety certification and independent safety approval are excluded unless expressly included in a signed statement of work.
  • Compatibility and safety behavior of third-party devices require project-specific confirmation.
  • The customer remains responsible for final installation, validation, regulatory approval and safe operation.

Product Integration & Compliance

SERVICE SCOPE & RESPONSIBILITIES

Defined inputs, deliverables, boundaries and acceptance.

This published scope is a starting point for quotation. A signed statement of work may add, remove or revise individual items.

Service Overview

E-stop, safety relay, safety I/O, scanners, bumper edges and interlock documentation coordination.

What this covers

  • Safety device interfaces, safety I/O mapping, interlocks and documentation coordination for robot cells and mobile platforms.

Best fit when

  • Use this capability when safety devices, safety logic, I/O and drive-side safe-stop interfaces must be documented together before RFQ.

Required Customer Inputs

Required input

  • Robot application
  • E-stop architecture
  • Safety relay or controller
  • Scanner / bumper / interlock devices
  • Safety I/O
  • Validation boundary
  • Required documents

Included Deliverables

Possible review outputs

  • Requirement and interface review record
  • Subsystem interface checklist
  • Wiring or interface document request
  • Related category or integration path recommendation
  • Controlled file request status
  • RFQ-ready integration summary

Delivery boundary

  • Engineering sample or project package support
  • Interface and documentation coordination review
  • Documentation status and controlled file workflow
  • Customer installation, system validation and final safety assessment remain required

Excluded Services

Not included unless expressly stated in a signed statement of work:

  • complete machine design;
  • system-level risk assessment;
  • CE, UKCA, UL or other product certification;
  • functional-safety validation;
  • independent safety approval;
  • professional-engineer certification;
  • regulatory filing;
  • destructive qualification testing;
  • final production qualification;
  • final-user documentation;
  • approval of the customer’s complete system.

Assumptions

  • Conclusions are based on the requirements and records available at the time of review.
  • Published and customer-supplied documents may require engineering confirmation before they are used for a final design decision.
  • Any operating condition, interface, safety or market requirement not provided remains an open item.

Customer Responsibilities

The customer is responsible for providing complete and accurate:

  • operating conditions;
  • loads and duty cycles;
  • dimensional constraints;
  • electrical and control interfaces;
  • environmental conditions;
  • safety requirements;
  • destination market;
  • regulatory and certification requirements.

Acceptance Criteria

  • The agreed deliverable matches the approved inputs and written service scope.
  • Open assumptions, exclusions and deviations are identified in the service record.
  • Acceptance of a service deliverable does not constitute complete system approval, certification or production qualification.

Revision Allowance

  • Revision allowance is defined in the approved quotation or signed statement of work.
  • A revision addresses the agreed deliverable against unchanged inputs; new requirements are handled through Change Control.

Change Control

Changes to an approved requirement, drawing, interface, operating condition or acceptance criterion require a written Change Request.

A Change Request may affect price, schedule, tooling, minimum order quantity, performance, validation and documentation.

ENGINEERING SERVICE SCOPE

EmbodyStack engineering services support product selection, feasibility evaluation, customization, documentation preparation, prototype development and integration review.

Unless expressly included in a signed statement of work, the service does not constitute complete system design, system certification, independent safety validation, production qualification, legal or regulatory advice or approval of the customer’s final machine.

Results depend on the accuracy and completeness of the customer’s stated operating conditions, loads, duty cycle, interfaces, environmental requirements, safety requirements and target-market requirements.

Changes to these inputs may invalidate previous conclusions and require a revised scope, quotation or schedule.
