Industrial sewing machines - Safety requirements for sewing machines, units and systems (ISO 10821:2005)

ISO 10821:2005 identifies hazards and specifies safety requirements applicable to sewing machines, sewing units and sewing systems designed for professional (industrial, commercial or laboratory) use in industries including the clothing and footwear, leather goods, shirts and blousery, hosiery and knitwear, lingerie, glove, upholstery and packaging industries, and in shoe repair. The use of such machines in other industries could give rise to hazards not considered. It is not applicable to shoe bottom stitching machines, large shuttle embroidery machines in accordance with ISO 11111 or household sewing machines in accordance with IEC 60335-2-28.

Industrienähmaschinen - Sicherheitsanforderungen an Nähmaschinen, Näheinheiten und Nähanlagen (ISO 10821:2005)

Diese Internationale Norm identifiziert Gefährdungen und legt Sicherheitsanforderungen an Nähmaschinen, Näheinheiten und Nähanlagen fest, die für gewerbliche (industrielle, kommerzielle oder labormäßige) Anwendung in der Industrie, einschließlich der Bekleidungs- und Schuhindustrie, der Lederwarenindustrie, Hemden- und Blusenindustrie, Strumpfwaren-, Wirkwaren-, Trikotwaren-, Maschenwaren- und Strickwarenindustrie, Damenunterwäsche-, Handschuh-, Polsterwaren- und Verpackungsindustrie und in der Schuhreparatur, bestimmt sind.
Die Anwendung der Informationen zum Einsatz und zur Wartung dieser Maschinen auf andere Industriezweige könnte zu Gefährdungen führen, die nicht in dieser Internationalen Norm betrachtet werden.
Die Anforderungen dieser Internationalen Norm sind auf Maschinen anwendbar, die an trockenen, gut unterhaltenen, sauberen Orten installiert sind und mit denen trockenes Nähgut verarbeitet wird. Werden die Nähmaschinen, -einheiten oder -anlagen an anderen als trockenen, gut unterhaltenen, sauberen Orten eingesetzt, sind möglicherweise härtere Maßnahmen erforderlich: beispielsweise ein höherer Schutzgrad durch Gehäuse (IP-Code - siehe IEC 60529) [3].
Der Zweck dieser Internationalen Norm besteht darin, den Hersteller dabei zu unterstützen, die Maschinen auf eine Weise zu konstruieren, dass die sich aus deren festgelegtem und vorgesehenem Einsatz und der Wartung ergebenden Risiken verringert oder ausgeschlossen werden. Die signifikanten Gefährdungen und Gefährdungssituationen werden mit einem Verweis auf die entsprechenden Sicherheitsanforderungen oder  maßnahmen in 4.2 bis 4.8 aufgeführt. Als signifikante Gefährdungen sind Gefährdungen anzusehen, die als solche identifiziert und eingeschätzt werden, die Tätigkeiten erfordern, um das von ihnen ausgehende Risiko zu verringern.

Machines à coudre industrielles - Exigences de sécurité pour machines à coudre, unités et systèmes de couture (ISO 10821:2005)

L'ISO 10821:2005 identifie les phénomènes dangereux et spécifie les prescriptions de sécurité applicables aux machines à coudre, aux unités et systèmes de couture conçus pour une utilisation professionnelle (industrie, commerce ou laboratoire), en particulier dans les industries du vêtement et de la chaussure, du cuir, de la chemise et du corsage, de la bonneterie et du tricot, de la lingerie, du gant, du siège et de l'ameublement et de l'emballage, ainsi que dans la cordonnerie. L'utilisation et la maintenance de telles machines dans d'autres industries peut créer des phénomènes dangereux non traités dans ce document. L'ISO 10821:2004 ne s'applique pas aux machines à coudre les semelles de chaussure, aux machines à broder à grande navette conformément à l'ISO 11111, et aux machines à coudre domestiques (ou de ménage) conformément à la CEI 60335-2-28.
