    Robot-cell safety, Machinery Regulation conformity, and robot-stack security — cited at clause and article level.

    Ansvar is a gateway for the AI assistant your team already uses — Claude, Microsoft Copilot, any MCP client. Connect it, and every answer below comes back cited to the provision or marked unresolved.

    10218:2025clause map + ISO/TS 15066
    ROS 2 / DDSsecurity guidance, full text
    EU · USMachinery Reg + OSHA / NIOSH

    ISO 10218-1/-2:2025 and ISO/TS 15066 collaborative modes are surfaced as clause maps with Ansvar cross-references — never the reproduced standard — alongside the EU Machinery Regulation and the AI Act duties on AI safety components at article level. Mobile and service robots have their own clause map (ISO 3691-4, ANSI/A3 R15.08, ISO 13482), and the harmonised-standards index tells you which standard confers presumption of conformity and until when. The robot stack itself is covered full-text: ROS 2 / DDS security guidance and robot exploitation chains (both Apache-2.0), bridged to IEC 62443 industrial cyber, with the US occupational layer — OSHA and NIOSH robot-safety material — served verbatim beside it. Ask the requirement; then run the robot TARA or machinery gap analysis that turns it into evidence.

    what we cover

    The law and standards we ground on

    Regulation

    Machinery Regulation (EU) 2023/1230

    article-level, incl. Annex III essential H&S (applies 2027-01-20)

    Regulation

    EU AI Act — high-risk safety-component duties (Reg (EU) 2024/1689)

    Standard

    Control mapping: ISO 10218-1/-2:2025 + ISO/TS 15066 collaborative operation

    140 robot and robot-system safety requirements as a clause map + Ansvar cross-refs — not the standard text

    Standard

    Control mapping: mobile & service robot safety (ISO 3691-4 · ANSI/A3 R15.08 · ISO 13482)

    driverless industrial trucks, industrial mobile robots and personal-care robots — personnel detection, operating zones, speed and stopping distance, manipulator-while-moving — clause map, not the standard text

    Standard

    Control mapping: functional safety (ISO 12100 · ISO 13849 · IEC 61508 · IEC 62061) + IEC 62443 industrial cyber

    requirement mapping incl. the SIL determination route and the safety-security bridge (IEC TS 63074 · IEC TR 63069 · ISO/TR 22100-4) — not the standard text

    Standard

    EU machinery harmonised-standards index

    which standard confers presumption of conformity, by OJ citation, Type-A/B/C role and cessation date — an index over the standards, not their text

    Guidance

    ROS 2 / DDS security + robot exploitation chains

    served full-text (Apache-2.0) — robot-stack hardening and attack techniques, cited per item

    Guidance

    US robot-safety authority material — OSHA and NIOSH

    served verbatim, US public domain — the OSHA Technical Manual chapter on industrial robot systems and the robotics topic pages, plus NIOSH occupational-robotics material and its in-house robot fatality investigations

    Law

    Chinese national law

    national laws of the NPC and its Standing Committee, legislative decisions and State Council administrative regulations from flk.npc.gov.cn, in Chinese original with Ansvar-authored English metadata. Local regulations, judicial interpretations and departmental rules are not yet served. GB/GB-T standard body text is excluded; this listing does not establish Chinese market approval or equivalence with ISO standards.

    Regulation

    Horizontal: Cyber Resilience Act · NIS2

    what you can do

    Workflows that turn it into evidence

    Robot / cobot TARA

    threat analysis & risk assessment off the robot TARA workflow, grounded in the ISO 10218, mobile-robot and safety-security-bridge clause maps — an available analysis, not a legally-assured verdict

    EU Machinery Regulation gap analysis

    Annex III essential-H&S coverage incl. the conformity route and the harmonised standards that carry presumption of conformity — a gap analysis, never a conformity verdict

    STRIDE threat model

    over the robot controller, ROS 2 graph, fleet manager and cloud backend

    AI Act gap analysis & classification

    high-risk safety-component duties for AI in robots (Art. 6(1))

    assembledPremium

    Robot-stack security research as cited answers

    ROS 2 / DDS hardening and robot exploitation chains, every answer cited to its source

    Document review, paragraph-cited

    risk assessments, technical documentation and integration specs

    STRIDE threat-model workflows run on every plan against a system you describe — 1 run a month on Free, 2 on Solo, 5 on Premium, which also adds the LINDDUN and TARA families, the rendered reports, and case law inside the run. Document-grounded workflows run on Team and Company. Every tier runs the same corpora as cited research inside your own AI client.

    Questions buyers ask first

    Do you serve the ISO 10218 or ISO/TS 15066 text?
    Not by default — robot-safety standards are surfaced as clause maps with Ansvar-authored cross-references, addressable against your licensed copy. But the standard text itself can be added: through the SIS-licensed standards module, any ISO, EN or SS standard SIS publishes can be licensed in and served cited verbatim inside your workflows; see /standards. The ROS 2 / DDS security guidance and the robot exploitation catalog are served full-text — both are Apache-2.0 licensed.
    Can this certify a robot cell under the Machinery Regulation?
    No. The workflows produce cited gap analyses and a TARA — decision-support for your conformity work, not a conformity verdict or a notified-body assessment.
    How is this different from the Industrial / OT page?
    Industrial / OT takes the plant operator's view — zones, conduits and live ICS advisories. This lane takes the robot maker's and integrator's view: cell-level safety clause maps, Machinery Regulation conformity duties, and the security of the robot stack itself. The IEC 62443 mapping is shared between both.
