Safeties
Collision All movement are software controlled to avoid collision of any part of the
equipment with room floor, ceiling or walls. Room size can be set by software

might cause unwanted or excessive movements or radiation
High voltage cables HV cables are fully integrated in the column and are completely invisible and
protected with covers
Compressor When not in use, the compressor is automatically parked behind the tube for
parking maximum safety
