This document also applies to machines which are integrated into an automatic production line or grinding cell in as much as the hazards and risks arising are comparable to those of machines working separately.
This document also includes in Clause 7 a minimum list of safety-relevant information which the manufacturer has to provide to the user. See also ISO 12100:2010, Figure 2, which illustrates the interaction of the manufacturer’s and user’s responsibility for the operational safety.
The user's responsibility to identify specific hazards (e.g. fire and explosion) and reduce the associated risks can be critical (e.g. whether the central extraction system is working correctly).
Where additional metalworking processes (e.g. milling, turning, laser processing) are involved, this document can be taken as a basis for safety requirements. Specific information on hazards arising from other metalworking processes are covered by other International Standards.
This document applies to machines that are manufactured after the date of issue of this document.
This document does not apply to stationary honing, polishing and belt grinding machines. This document does not apply to transportable motor-operated electric tools in accordance with IEC 61029-2-4 and IEC 61029-2-10.

This document specifies principles for the design and selection (independent of the nature of the energy source) of interlocking devices associated with guards and provides guidance on measures to minimize the possibility of defeat of interlocking devices in a reasonably foreseeable manner.
This document covers principles for the design, selection and application of the following:
— parts of the guards which actuate interlocking devices;
— trapped key interlocking devices and systems for machinery applications.
NOTE ISO 14120 specifies general requirements for the design and construction of guards provided primarily to protect persons from mechanical hazards. The processing of the signal from the interlocking device to stop the machine and prevent unexpected start up is covered in ISO 14118, ISO 13849-1 and IEC 62061.
