Welding Interview Question:

Does purchasing reconditioned robots or robotic systems breach any RIA standards?

Submitted by: Administrator

No, this should not be a problem. Rebuilt robots retain the same configuration and capabilities of the original robot and only have to comply with the standards in effect on the original manufacture date. If you actually 'remanufacture', i.e. upgrade the robot, then you will have to comply with the 1999 edition of the standard.
