The primary goal of ISO 3691-4 is to ensure that mobile robots can operate safely alongside human workers by defining rigorous verification methods and safety requirements.
The 2023 update aligned the standard with ISO 13849-1 , shifting from simple "Categories" to more advanced for safety-critical functions.
It covers powered driverless trucks like "bots," tunnel tuggers, and under-carts.
ISO 3691-4:2023 is the definitive international safety standard for "driverless industrial trucks," including and Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs) . This standard, which replaced the 2020 version in June 2023, provides the technical framework for designing, integrating, and operating autonomous systems safely in industrial environments.
