Abstract
This study deals with designing robot teach pendants for industrial robots. The emergency stop button on robot teach pendants is the primary safety device for industrial robots. Recommendations for the design of the emergency stop button were proposed based on experimental evaluations. Human performance was measured by the reaction time necessary to press the button on a pendant. The variation factors were randomly combined by seven button locations and three different button sizes. The results indicated that the shortest reaction time was obtained for the 38-mm button located on the left and left-down of the seven button positions on the pendant.
