Risks 

 

1.1

 

Risk of electromagnetic radiation 

 

When operating the axes of Jenny Science AG, 

electromagnetic fields are generated which may be 

dangerous for persons with pacemakers or implanted 

defibrillators. 

Persons with magnetically influenced implants or with 

prostheses that contain ferromagnetic components are 

at risk due to the magnetic fields that occur and must 

therefore under no circumstances carry out work with 

this type of equipment. During operation, a safety 

distance of at least 1 meter must be observed. 

 
 

1.2

 

Risk from magnetic force 

 

Due to the high magnetic field strengths, large attractive 

forces occur especially in the immediate vicinity (distance 

of approx. 50mm between the magnetic tracks). 

Therefore, it must be strictly observed that objects made 

of steel or iron (e.g. watches, rings, etc.) as well as 

technical devices (e.g. computers, credit cards, hard 

disks, etc.), which can be attracted, influenced or 

destroyed by the magnetic field, are not led into this area 

with the free hand. An appropriate safety distance must 

be maintained. 

 
 

1.3

 

Risk due to surface temperature 

 

During operation, the surfaces of the motors can become 

correspondingly hot. The surface temperature of the 

motor can reach up to 80°C.  

Monitoring devices and the error messages of the 

controllers must be checked continuously. If there are 

changes compared to normal operation, switch off the 

motor.
