METHOD FOR MANAGING AN ACTIVE SAFETY FOR AN AUTOMATICALLY OPERATING MACHINE

摘要

The invention relates to a method for managing an active safety for an automatically operating machine which comprises a worktop and a working tool displaceable according to a pre-set operating program. The inventive method consists in dividing (100) the worktop in several areas and in carrying out, while performing the operating program and when detecting an operator intrusion into the first area whereas the tool is activated in the second area, at least one of the following actions: to maintain (210) the tool programmed displacement at a normal speed if the tool displacement is programmed in the area non-contiguous to the first area, to maintain (220) the tool programmed displacement at a reduced speed if the tool displacement is programmed in the area contiguous to the first area and in modifying (230) the operating program if the tool displacement is programmed in the first area in such a way that the tool is enabled to continue to work in the area other than the first area.
