Machines and installations for the exploitation and processing of natural stone - Safety - Requirements for diamond wire saws

This European Standard applies to diamond wire saws being used in quarries as well as in processing plants for cutting marble, granite and other stones out of a mass of rocks in a quarry or of blocks having been al-ready extracted. The machines can be either stationary or travelling on rails during operation.
Diamond wire saws in the scope have an electric main motor. This standard deals with machines working in one main axis as well as in several axes. Furthermore, this standard does not deal with problems caused by an irregular structure of the stones to be cut.
Diamond wire saws are intended to be used with diamond cutting wires also referred to as tools in this stan-dard.
For transportable machines, this standard deals only with machines using coated wire tools.
This standard deals with all significant hazards, hazardous situations and events relevant to diamond wire saws, when they are used as intended and under conditions of misuse which are reasonably foreseeable by the manufacturer (see Clause 4). This European Standard deals with the hazards during transport, commissioning, use and maintenance.
This standard does not deal with noise as a significant hazard.
This European Standard does not deal with:
-   operation under extreme ambient conditions (outside the limits defined in EN 60204-1);
-   upstream and downstream conveying elements for transporting the work-pieces.
This document is not applicable to machines which are manufactured before the date of its publication as EN.

Maschinen und Anlagen zur Gewinnung und Bearbeitung von Naturstein - Sicherheit - Anforderungen für Diamantseilsägen

Diese Norm behandelt alle signifikanten Gefährdungen, Gefährdungssituationen und Gefährdungsereignisse, die auf die Diamantseilsägen zutreffen, wenn sie bestimmungsgemäß verwendet werden. Die nach vernünftigem Ermessen für den Hersteller vorhersehbare Nutzung der Maschine außerhalb der bestimmungsgemäßen Verwendung ist ebenfalls berücksichtigt (siehe Abschnitt 4).
Diese Europäische Norm gilt für Diamantseilsägen, die in Steinbrüchen und Werkstätten eingesetzt werden. Diamantseilsägen werden zum Trennen von Marmor, Granit und anderem Gestein aus einem Gesteinsmassiv im Bruch oder in Form von bereits gelösten Blöcken eingesetzt. Sie können sowohl stationär sein, als auch während des Betriebs auf Schienen bewegt werden.
Diamantseilsägen besitzen einen elektrischen Hauptmotor für die Antriebsseilscheibe zur Erzeugung der Werkzeugbewegung. Die Anzahl der Vorschub- und Nebenachsen kann je nach Maschinenart und Maschinenausführung variieren. Die Norm behandelt Maschinen die sowohl in einer Hauptachse, als auch in mehreren Achsen arbeitet. Weiterhin werden in dieser Norm Probleme, die auf unregelmäßige Gefüge der zu trennenden Gesteine zurückzuführen sind, nicht behandelt.
Diamantseilsägen sind für den Einsatz mit Diamanttrennseilen bestimmt, die in dieser Norm auch als Werkzeug bezeichnet werden.
Diese Europäische Norm behandelt folgendes nicht:
-   Betrieb unter extremen Umgebungsbedingungen (z. B. extreme Temperaturen);
-   Betrieb unter potentiell explosiver Atmosphäre;
-   Betrieb unter elektrischer Energieversorgung, bei der maßgebende Kenngrößen (Spannung, Frequenz, Toleranzen usw.) von den Standartwerten des jeweiligen öffentlichen Stromnetzen abweichen;
-   vor- und nachgeschaltete Förderelemente zum Transport der Werkstücke;
-   Betrieb mit kabelloser Fernsteuerung.
Diese Europäische Norm behandelt signifikante Gefährdungen bezüglich Lärm nicht.
Dieses Dokument gilt nicht für Diamantseilsägen, die hergestellt wurden, bevor CEN dieses Dokument veröffentlichte.

Machines et installations d'extraction et d'usinage des pierres naturelles - Sécurité - Prescriptions relatives aux scies à fil diamanté

La présente Norme européenne s'applique aux scies à fil diamanté utilisées dans les carrières et les usines de traitement pour découper le marbre, le granite et d'autres pierres dans des blocs de roches exploités dans une carrière ou dans des blocs de pierres ayant déjà fait l'objet d'une extraction. Les machines peuvent être fixes ou mobiles, leur déplacement s'effectuant alors sur des rails pendant leur fonctionnement.
Les scies à fil diamanté entrant dans le domaine d’application comportent un moteur principal électrique. La présente norme traite de machines fonctionnant sur un axe principal ainsi que sur plusieurs axes. Elle ne traite pas des problèmes dus à une structure irrégulière des pierres à découper.
Les scies à fil diamanté sont destinées à être utilisées avec les fils de coupe diamantés auxquels la présente norme fait également référence en qualité d'outils.
Pour les machines transportables, la présente norme traite seulement des machines avec comme outils, des fils enrobés.
La présente norme traite tous les phénomènes, situations et événements dangereux significatifs relatifs aux scies à fil diamanté, lorsqu'elles sont utilisées dans des conditions normales et dans des conditions de mauvaise utilisation raisonnablement prévisibles par le constructeur (voir Article 4). La présente Norme européenne traite des phénomènes dangereux pendant le transport, la mise en service, l’utilisation et la maintenance.
La présente Norme européenne ne traite pas :
-   de l'exploitation dans des conditions ambiantes extrêmes (au-delà des limites définies dans
l’EN 60204-1) ;
-   des éléments de transport en amont et en aval des pièces usinées.
Le présent document n'est pas applicable aux machines fabriquées avant sa date de publication comme EN.
