Overview

EN 14655:2005+A1:2010 is a CEN European Standard for food processing machinery that specifies safety and hygiene requirements for baguette slicers used in catering by adults. It covers the design and manufacture of machines whose intended use is to cut baguettes and similar long bread sticks into slices, taking into account installation, cleaning, operation, maintenance and decommissioning. The standard addresses all significant hazards when machines are used as intended and foreseen by the manufacturer.

Key topics and requirements

• Scope and exclusions
  • Applies to crescent-blade baguette slicers with a rotating shaft and vertical manual loading, intended for table or stand installation.
  • Excludes frame cutter machines with multiple blades, machines with oscillating or horizontally loaded blades, domestic appliances, experimental/testing prototypes and machines produced before the standard’s publication.
• Hazard identification
  • Lists mechanical, electrical, hygiene and ergonomic hazards relevant to loading, cutting, unloading, cleaning, crumb removal and maintenance.
• Safety measures
  • Requirements for guards, interlocks, safe distances and danger-zone definition (figures and safety dimensions are provided).
  • Electrical safety and equipment requirements consistent with machine safety best practice.
• Hygiene and cleanability
  • Principles of hygienic design, materials of construction and cleanability guidance are set out (Annex B provides normative design principles to ensure cleanability).
• Verification and testing
  • Procedures for verification of safety and hygiene measures and for information supplied with the machine (instruction handbook and marking).
• Noise
  • Noise is not treated as a significant hazard, but a noise test code is included in Annex A (normative) for emission measurement and declaration.
• Documentation
  • Requirements for instruction manuals, safety marking and information for use to support safe operation and maintenance.

Practical applications - who uses this standard

• Manufacturers and designers of baguette slicers and food processing machinery - to design compliant, safe and hygienic machines.
• Safety and compliance engineers - for risk assessment, CE marking support and verification against Machinery Directive requirements.
• Foodservice operators, procurement and maintenance teams - to specify, install, clean and maintain equipment according to best practice.
• Test laboratories and notified bodies - for conformity testing and verification.

Related standards

EN 14655 references and aligns with several machine safety and hygiene standards, for example:

• EN 1672-2 (hygiene requirements for food processing machinery)
• EN 60204-1 (electrical equipment of machines)
• EN 953 (guards) and EN 1088 (interlocks)
• EN ISO 11201 / EN ISO 3744 (acoustics/noise measurement)

Using EN 14655 helps ensure baguette slicers meet European safety and hygiene expectations, reduce operational risks and support regulatory compliance in the foodservice sector.
