ZhilianhaiFirst Response to Robot Entrapment
A response sequence
| Step | Action |
|---|---|
| Stop | Press the nearest emergency stop and isolate power |
| Call | Summon help and the trained first responders |
| Secure | Prevent restart and keep others clear |
| Assist | Follow the trained release procedure for the mechanism |
| Record | Preserve the scene state for later investigation |
Why training matters
- Improvised release of a loaded mechanism can cause further injury.
- People need to know which stop affects which equipment.
- Post-incident investigation needs the machine state preserved.
Emergency response procedures must be written for the site and practised. Do not improvise a release method.
