HBO Internship/Graduation Assignment – Safety robot applications

The Assignment

Our robot applications have a fencing (cell) around the robot for safety to prevent that persons can walk into the working area of the robot. There is a gap in the fence that allows pig carcasses to enter the robot cell for processing on one side of the cell and leave the cell on the other side of the cell. Due to more strict safety regulations, we are facing more and more difficulties to fulfill the safety requirements. Until now there is no solution that works well for our customer and for JBTMarel.

There is a high demand from the market and within JBTMarel to develop a good working solution that suits the market and JBTMarel to guarantee safety, performance and quality.

What You’ll Be Doing

Develop a new solution for the robot cells regarding safety.

Set up project plan including activities, time, cost, risks. Review current design. Create a program of requirements. Validate program of requirements with stakeholders. Create Value Proposition / Business Case for the customer and for Marel. Develop prototype with the team including mechanical design, hardware and software. Create test specification for in-house test.
