As others have said, it depends on what you are scanning. No, you cannot break your scanners running them at 40K if you are not running a huge angle or an intense pattern/graphic or both. Even though you can scan at 40K, these scanners can get hot, really hot. DT40s also use conventional bearings and as the heat goes up, the oil in the bearings becomes less viscous and will leak out more than normal. The extra heat also plays havoc with the coils and they may start to come apart.
Can you run anything at max? Sure. Is it a good idea to? No.
If you're the smartest person in the room, then you're in the wrong room.
