Safety of woodworking machines - Circular sawing machines - Part 8: Single blade edging circular rip sawing machines with power driven saw unit and manual loading and/or unloading

This European Standard sets out the requirements and/or the measures to remove the hazards and/or limit the risk on single blade edging circular rip sawing machines with power driven saw unit and manual loading and/or unloading, hereinafter referred to as "machines", designed to cut solid wood, chipboard, fibreboard and plywood.
This European Standard covers the hazards relevant to these machines as stated in clause 4.
For Computer Numerically Controlled (CNC) machines this European Standard does not cover hazards related to Electro-Magnetic Compatibility (EMC).
This European Standard applies to machines where the workpiece is stationary, the vertical and horizontal movements of the saw unit are power driven, and where the machine is provided with workpiece clamping the workpiece may or may not be clamped during cutting.
This European Standard does not apply to machines :
¾ where the workpiece is fed to the sawblade during cutting;
¾ designed specifically for cutting veneers;
¾ provided with a device situated behind the line of cut, which moves in a direction parallel to the line of cut, for automatically unloading the workpiece during the return of the saw unit to the rest position.
This European Standard is primarily directed at machines which are manufactured after the date of issue of this European Standard.

Diese Norm legt die Anforderungen und/oder Maßnahmen zur Beseitigung der Gefährdungen und/oder zur Begrenzung des Risikos fest an Besäum- und Leistenkreissägemaschinen mit kraftbetriebenem Sägeaggregat (im folgenden als "Maschinen" bezeichnet), die bestimmt sind zum Schneiden von Massivholz und/oder ähnlichen Werkstoffen wie Spanplatten, Faserplatten oder Sperrholz, sowie diesen Werkstoofen wenn sie kunstoff-beschichtet sind oder mit Kunststoffkanten versehen sind.

Sécurité des machines pour le travail du bois - Machines à scier circulaires - Partie 8: Déligneuses monolames à déplacement mécanisé du groupe de sciage et à chargement manuel et/ou déchargement manuel

La présente Norme européenne spécifie les prescriptions et/ou les mesures qui doivent être prises pour éliminer les phénomènes dangereux et/ou limiter les risques sur les déligneuses monolames à déplacement mécanisé du groupe de sciage à chargement et/ou déchargement manuel (ci-après désignées sous le terme "machines"), conçues pour la coupe de bois massif, de panneaux de particules, de fibres et de contreplaqué.
La présente Norme européenne couvre tous les phénomènes dangereux applicables à ces machines dont une liste est donnée à l'article 4.
Pour les machines à commande numérique, la présente norme européenne ne traite pas des phénomènes dangereux liés à la compatibilité électromagnétique (CEM).
La présente Norme européenne s'applique aux machines sur lesquelles la pièce à travailler est fixe et où les déplacements verticaux et horizontaux de la scie sont mécanisés. Lorsque ces machines sont munies d'un dispositif de bridage des pièces, la pièce peut ou non être bridée durant la coupe.
La présente Norme européenne ne s'applique pas aux machines
¾ sur lesquelles la pièce est poussée vers la lame durant la coupe ;
¾ conçues spécifiquement pour la coupe des feuilles de placage ;
¾ équipées d'un dispositif situé derrière la ligne de coupe, se déplaçant parallèlement à la ligne de coupe pour le déchargement automatique de pièces pendant le retour du groupe de sciage à sa position de repos.
La présente Norme européenne est applicable aux machines fabriquées après la date de publication de la présente Norme européenne.
