We are very aware of R06 and R07 but that does not address the hazards imposed my internal robot functions.
For example if there are sharp teeth on a 2 inch rotating drum used to intake the rope is that legal? I don't see anything that says its not but, I also have enough experience to know that an inspector could rule it unsafe.
For example if a drum had a surface like this. Would you feel deem that acceptable and safe? http://pasteboard.co/qlbYwAl1J.png

It's been a while since I've been an inspector, but: If I run my hand along it and it would get cut if I pressed harder, it's probably going to need to get filed down. Doubly so on a moving part.
