EN 12629-3:2002 (E)
Introduction
This European Standard is a Type C-standard in the structure as stated in EN 1070.
The machinery concerned and the extent to which hazards, hazardous situations and events are covered are
indicated in the scope of this standard.
When provisions of this type C standard are different from those which are stated in type A or B standards, the
provisions of this type C standard take precedence over the provisions of the other standards, for machines that
have been designed and built according to the provisions of this type C standard.
Reference to pertinent standards mentioned above is made where requirements of such standards are relevant.
1 Scope
1.1 This European Standard applies to machines for the manufacture of constructional products of calcium
silicate or concrete, where the mould(s) is (are) mounted on a turning or slide moving table. The motive power for
compressing the mixture is effected either mechanically (annexes A, B), or hydraulically (annexes C and D).
1.2 This European Standard deals with the hazards listed in clause 4 of machines for the manufacture of
constructional products from concrete and calcium silicate, when used as intended under the conditions foreseen
by the manufacturer. This European Standard specifies the appropriate technical measures to eliminate or reduce
risks arising from the significant hazards.
1.3 This European Standard applies to the machines from the point at which the mixture enters the machine (see
point 1 of annexes A, B, C, D) and the point where the pallets for concrete products are brought to the assembly
(see point 8 at annexes C and D) until the point where the green products are removed from the machine to the
curing system (see point 2 of annexes A, B, C, D).
1.4 This European standard does not cover those requirements for reducing hazards from mechanical,
electrical, pneumatic, hydraulic or other equipment or machinery that are dealt with in standards for their common
use (Type A, B1 and B2 standards).
1.5 This European Standard deals with the hazards listed in clause 4 which can arise during the operation and
maintenance, including the interfaces, of the slide and turntable machines, when carried out in accordance with the
1)
specifications given by the manufacturer or his authorised representative, except noise hazards.
NOTE Amendment is under preparation to deal with noise, in particular for measures to reduce noise at source and a
noise test code including noise declaration.
This standard establishes safety requirements and/or methods of protection which apply to these machines.
1.6 The provisions stated in this standard assume that all operators have been adequately informed and trained.

1) Until a noise test code (dealing with the measurement and declaration of noise emission values) specific to the machines
covered by this part is available to complement the requirements of 5.7.2 and 7.4.2 of EN 12629-1:2000, it cannot be
considered that noise hazards are covered.
