One in every two machines that emit electric and magnetic fields is a resistance welder. Resistance welding machines expose their operators to high magnetic fields which may exceed the exposure action values defined by European Directive…
Electromagnetic forming is an industrial process using pulsed magnetic field for shaping conductive material. With reference to the European Directive 2013/35/UE, evaluating the electromagnetic safety of workers seems overriding. Experiments…

Outline of reasons and objectives
Industrial applications based on the physical properties of electromagnetic waves can expose operators to high levels. In 2011, INRS published the results of a study based on measurements at 600 work stations…
This conference made it possible to survey the biological effects of the electromagnetic radiations. Their possible pathological effects were approached through several epidemiological studies, followed by a presentation of various medical…
This article aims at describing the main industrial machines sources of electromagnetic fields according to radiation frequency and measured magnitude.
The operator electromagnetic field exposure was measured in France on 1000 workplaces close to main radiating industrial machines. Result analysis enabled the development of a basic application for a rough assessment of operator exposure…
