2 Intended use and reasonably foreseeable misuse
Isel
CNC machinery of type ICP are CNC controlled machinery with more than one linear
axis resp. one or two optional rotation axis. The motor power amplifiers will be driven via a
PC based stepper-motor-control. All control and power electronics for the axis is mounted in
a control cabinet.
Differences between CNC machine and CNC base machine:
isel
-CNC-machine:
In the new, at 29.12.2009 legally binding machine directive 2006/42/EC, is the term
“
machinery
” defined as follows (quote from EC directive, article 2, letter a):
„
machinery“
an assembly, fitted with or intended to be fitted with a drive system other than directly applied human or
animal effort, consisting of linked parts or components, at least one of which moves, and
which are joined
together for a specific application.
Each isel-CNC-machine delivered
with a tool
(e.g. milling or engraving spindle, metering
device, measuring device like CCD camera or triangulation laser, water jet nozzle, plasma
burner), is for the purpose of the directive 2006/42/EC a machine, because she was
manufactured for a specific purpose resp.
specific application
and therewith a specific
usage.
The usage results from the kind of tool which is mounted on a moveable axis, e.g.:
tool = milling tool
usage for milling, drilling
tool = engraving tool
usage for engraving
tool = metering device
usage for metering
tool = water jet nozzle
usage for water jet cutting
The manufacturer isel Germany AG is able to effect a legal prescribed risk assessment for
the CNC-machines. CNC-machines will be delivered with a machinery enclosure.
isel
-CNC-base-machine:
In the new, at 29.12.2009 legally binding machine directive 2006/42/EC is the term “
partly
completed machinery
” defined as follows (quote from EC directive, article 2, letter g):
„
partly completed
machinery”
An assembly which is almost machinery but
which cannot in itself perform a specific
application
. A drive system is partly completed machinery. Partly completed machinery
is only intended to be incorporated into or assembled with other machinery or other
partly completed machinery or equipment, thereby forming machinery to which this
Directive applies;
Each
isel-CNC-base-machine
delivered
without a tool
and therefore
not for a specific
application
is for the purpose of the directive 2006/42/EC a
partly completed machine
.
The CNC-machine / CNC-base-machine is used for work in dry rooms (workshops,
laboratories) and industrial firms (max. ambient temperature: 40°C)
