System Overview
Chapter 2 System Overview
2.1 Overview
The VCP system is a system solution that integrates with HAIPICK/HAIFLEX robots, HAIPORT automatic loading and unloading machines, and guard doors. A VCP functions as a device to detect the presence of individuals. It operates by facilitating communication between the VPT module and the Vest Robot Terminal (VRT) and Vest Sensor Terminal (VST) modules on the HAIPICK side. This communication allows robots to identify the persons’ locations and determine whether they are staying within a safe distance. Consequently, the HAIPICK robots can reduce the speed or come to a halt. The system consists of several hardware modules, including VCP, VPT, VRT, VST, and Vest Door Robot (VDR). For details about the modules, see 3.1 Introduction. The system involves such roles as personnel, robots, guard doors, and HAIPORT, which collaborate to ensure compliance with onsite safety requirements.
2.2 Application Scope
The system is applicable to HAIPICK A42-E4 and A42T-E1/E2 series robots as well as HAIPORT P10-E2 and HAIFLEX K50H robots.
