This European Standard specifies the requirements and/or measures to remove the hazards and/or limit the risks on one side profiling machines with fixed table and feed rollers or feed chain hereinafter referred to as "machines", where the loading and unloading is manual and where the maximum work-piece height capacity is 200 mm. The machine is designed to process in one pass one side of solid wood, chip board, fibreboard or plywood and also these materials where they are covered with plastic laminate. The work-piece is fed through the processing units by an integrated feed consisting of rollers or a chain.
This European Standard covers the hazards relevant to these machines as stated in clause 4.
This European Standard does not apply to transportable machines.
This European Standard does not deal with any hazards relating to:
a) mechanical loading and/ or unloading of the work-piece; or
b) a machine being used in combination with any other machine (as part of a line); or
c) use of laser.
For Computer Numerically Controlled (CNC) machines this European Standard does not cover hazards related to Electro-Magnetic Compatibility (EMC).
NOTE 1 The requirements of this European Standard apply to all machines whatever their method of control e.g. electromechanical and/or electronic.
This European Standard is primarily directed to machines which are manufactured after the date of publication by CEN.
NOTE 2 Single end tenoning machines with sliding table are dealt with in EN 1218-1:1999. Double end tenoning and/or profiling machines fed by chain or chains are dealt with in EN 1218-2. Single end tenoning machines where the tenon is produced only by means of saw-blades are dealt with in EN 1218-3.
