About this event
If your work touches robot safety, cell design, or motion constraints, this meetup is built to get practical fast. ISO 10218-1: Axis and Space Limiting Functions focuses on one of the most important parts of industrial robot risk reduction: defining where a robot can go, how far it can move, and how those limits support safer operation in real environments. This is an in-person gathering for people who want to talk through the standard in a grounded way, compare interpretations, and connect with others working on similar challenges. Expect a technically focused conversation with a community feel: serious subject matter, approachable format, and plenty of room for discussion. About the Event This event centers on axis limiting functions and space limiting functions as described in ISO 10218
Who should attend
This is for people who want a more practical, discussion-driven understanding of robot motion limiting in the context of ISO 10218-1. - You work with **industrial robots or robotic cells** and need to think clearly about how motion boundaries are defined and used. - You are an **automation engineer, controls engineer, robotics engineer, or integrator** who wants sharper language and better judgment around axis and space limiting functions. - You focus on **machine safety, compliance, validation, or risk assessment** and want to compare interpretations with others working from the same standard. - You are involved in **system design, commissioning, or review** and need to understand how limiting functions affect real deployment decisions. - You value **peer discussion and technical networking**, and you learn best by hearing how others approach similar implementation challenges. - You are newer to this specific topic but already close enough to robotics or safety work that a focused in-person meetup will help you ramp up quickly. If you want a room full of people who take safety details seriously and can talk about them in a practical way, you will likely feel at home here.
