ISO 10218

In today's world, ISO 10218 has positioned itself as a topic of great relevance and interest to a wide spectrum of society. It has become a meeting point for people of different ages, genders, cultures and perspectives, being the object of debate, reflection and research. ISO 10218 has captured the attention of experts and citizens alike, generating a significant impact in multiple areas, from technology to politics, culture and the economy. In this article, we will thoroughly explore the importance and impact of ISO 10218, as well as the different perspectives that exist around this topic.

ISO 10218 is an international standard for industrial robot safety, developed by ISO/TC 184/SC 2 "Robots and robotic devices"[1] in parallel with the European Committee for Standardization in 2011. It consists of two parts:

  • Part 1: Robots[2]
  • Part 2: Robot systems and integration[3]

As a European standard it has the designation EN ISO 10218-1 and -2 (not to be mixed with EN 10218).[4]

ISO/TS 15066 was published in 2016 to address the new field of safety requirements for cobots.[5][6]

Revisions to the original standard have been planned by the ISO/TC 299 committee.[7][8] They are expected to be released in 2021.[7][8][9][10]
