RIA: Robotic Industries Association
RIA, the Robotic Industries Association, is a trade group founded in 1974 to serve the robotics industry in North America. RIA drives innovation, growth, and safety in manufacturing and service industries through education, promotion, and the advancement of robotics, related automation technologies, and companies delivering integrated solutions. Member companies include leading robot manufacturers, users, system integrators, component suppliers, research groups, and consulting firms. Standards from RIA are available both individually, directly through the ANSI webstore, and as part of a Standards Subscription. If you or your organization are interested in easy, managed, online access to standards that can be shared, a Standards Subscription may be what you need - please contact us at: [email protected] or 1-212-642-4980 or Request Proposal Price.

ANSI/RIA R15.08-1-2020
Industrial Mobile Robots - Safety Requirements - Part 1: Requirements for the Industrial Mobile Robot
Specifies safety requirements for industrial mobile robots (IMRs). It describes basic hazards associated with IMRs in an industrial environment (See Clause 3.12), and provides requirements to eliminate or adequately reduce, the risks associated with these hazards.
ANSI/RIA R15.06-2012
Industrial Robots and Robot Systems - Safety Requirements (CONTAINS CORRIGENDUM)
This part of [the standard] specifies requirements and guidelines for the inherent safe design, protective measures and information for use of industrial robots. It describes basic hazards associated with robots and provides requirements to eliminate, or adequately reduce, the risks associated with these hazards.
RIA TR R15.306-2016
Task-based Risk Assessment Methodology
The 2012 R15.06 standard requires that a "risk assessment" of the robot system be completed in order to comply with the standard. TR 306 describes one method of risk assessment that would comply with the R15.06 requirements. The 2016 version of TR 306 has been updated since the original version was published in 2014.
RIA TR R15.406-2014
Safeguarding
TR 406 explains how to design a system of safeguards to protect human workers in an industrial environment that also contains robot system(s). This document contains greater detail than in the original 2012 R15.06 standard document. The TR 406 document as published in 2014 continues to be the current active version.
RIA TR R15.606-2016
Technical Report - Industrial Robots and Robot Systems - Safety Requirements - Collaborative Robots
This Technical Specification specifies safety requirements for collaborative industrial robot systems and the work environment, and supplements the requirements and guidance on collaborative industrial robot operation given in ISO 10218-1 and ISO 10218-2 [ANSI/RIA R15.06-2012].This Technical Specification applies to industrial robot systems as described in ISO 10218-1 and ISO 10218-2 [ANSI/RIA R15.06-2012]. It does not apply to non-industrial robots, although the safety principles presented can be useful to other areas of robotics.
ANSI/RIA R15.06-1999 (R2009)
Industrial Robots and Robot Systems - Safety Requirements
Provides requirements for industrial robot manufacture, remanufacture and rebuild; robot system integration/installation; and methods of safeguarding to enhance the safety of personnel associated with the use of robots and robot systems. This second review further limits the potential requirements for any retrofit of existing systems, revises the description of control reliable circuitry, and reorganizes several clauses to enhance understanding.

RIA TR R15.506-2014
Applicability of ANSI/RIA R15.06-2012 for Existing Industrial Robot Applications
TR 506 explains how to take the 2012 R15.06 standard into account for existing robot systems, rather than the all-new robot installation that is the primary topic of the 2012 R15.06. The TR 506 document as published in 2014 continues to be the current active version.
