Danger Zones
Danger zones are the areas of the machine which during operation involve a certain
risk for people owing to mechanical movement. This comprises all areas of the
machine which involve linear movement, rotary motion, clamping or other
movements. Because of the innovative drive concept with low moved weights the risk
is much lower compared to other printing machines. Still it is necessary to know the
danger zones:
In this connection we indicate the following danger zones:
•
Manual work area with locating surface and unloading Point
Usually the manual work area is located at one end of the machine. Optionally
the machine can be operated with two manual work areas at both ends. The
manual work area is used for applying the substrate to the pallet as well as
unloading it from the latter. When applying or unloading substrates, operators
must always stand in front of and not between the pallets, in order to prevent
getting caught between pallet and print station in case of a motion of the
tables.
•
Area between two print stations
The area between two print stations also involves the risk of getting caught
between a pallet and a print station.
•
Printing area
The working/printing area involves the risk of getting limbs jammed between
the squeegee carriage and rigid mechanical parts. Do not reach into these
zones during the printing movement.
