Safety requirements for industrial laundry machinery - Part 5: Flatwork ironers, feeders and folders (ISO 10472-5:1997)

Covers, together with ISO 10472-1, most significant hazards associated with flatwork ironers, feeders and folders, such as: - cylinder and bed ironers for flatwork finishing having a contact area (for bed ironers under pressure) 0,25 m; - flatwork feeding machines for the automatic feeding of flatwork into bed or cylinder ironers, or directly to folders; - flatwork folding machines for the automatic folding of flatwork in association with cylinder and bed ironers; - folding machines for the automatic folding of small pieces (excluding endless towels); - multi-function machines. This part of the standard complements the basic requirements as laid down in ISO/TR 12100-1and ISO/TR 12100-2. It also gives guidance to the designer on assessing the risks associated with the hazards (see EN 1050) and on selecting measures for attaining the required safety level. This aprt does not apply to ancillary equipment, e.g. chemical supply pumps, steam valves and supply pipe work, vent systems, work feed systems and discharge systems and ducting to the atmosphere.

Overview

EN ISO 10472-5:2008 (identical to ISO 10472-5:1997) specifies safety requirements for industrial laundry machinery focused on flatwork ironers, feeders and folders. It complements the common requirements of ISO 10472‑1 and is part of the ISO 10472 series covering industrial laundry safety. The part applies to cylinder and bed ironers (bed ironers with a contact area > 0.25 m²), automatic flatwork feeding machines, folding machines (including small‑piece folders) and multi‑function units that combine feeding, ironing and folding.

The standard addresses hazard identification, protective measures, verification and user information, and it supports conformity with the EU Machinery Directives (98/37/EC and 2006/42/EC) when cited.

Key topics and technical requirements

• Definitions and scope: clear terms for flatwork, bed ironer, cylinder ironer, spreader carrier, folding mechanism and multi‑function machines.
• Hazard analysis: identification of principal hazards specific to flatwork machinery, including mechanical, electrical, thermal, noise, fire/explosion and ergonomic risks.
• Mechanical safeguards:
  • Protection against drawing‑in/trapping at rollers, beds and feedbands.
  • Prevention of in‑running nips between belts and rollers; guarding of spreader carriers and folding mechanisms.
  • Measures to avoid falls into pits and injuries from raised machine parts.
• Electrical and control safety: reference to safety‑related control system design (e.g., ISO 13849 series) and electrical equipment standards.
• Thermal safety:
  • Protection from burns due to heated beds/rollers and heating systems.
  • Controls for heat radiation in the workplace, prevention of ignition of work, and handling of ironed hot items.
• Other hazards:
  • Noise control, risks from gas‑heated machines (fire/explosion and harmful fumes), ejection of fluids, and ergonomic design to reduce operator strain.
• Verification and documentation:
  • Requirements for verification of safety measures.
  • Mandatory user information: instruction handbook and warning signs.

Practical applications

• Use for machine design and component selection to meet recognized safety levels.
• Basis for risk assessments, CE conformity assessment and technical file preparation under the Machinery Directive.
• Guidance for manufacturers, OEMs and integrators when specifying guards, interlocks, safety distances and control systems.
• Reference for safety engineers, test laboratories and certification bodies evaluating industrial laundry equipment.
• Useful to facility purchasers and maintenance teams to verify safe operation and documentation (manuals, labels).

Who should use this standard

• Machine designers and manufacturers of industrial laundry equipment
• Safety and compliance officers preparing CE/Machinery Directive documentation
• Plant managers, maintenance supervisors and accreditation bodies

Related standards

• ISO 10472‑1 (Common requirements)
• ISO/TR 12100‑1 / 12100‑2 (machine safety concepts)

The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out throughISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee hasbeen established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations,governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaboratesclosely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnicalstandardization.Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies forvoting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodiescasting a vote.International Standard ISO 10472-5 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 72, Textile machinery andmachinery for dry-cleaning and industrial laundering, Subcommittee SC 5, Industrial laundry anddry-cleaning machinery.ISO 10472 consists of the following parts, under the general title Safety requirements for industrial laundrymachinery:— Part 1: Common requirements— Part 2: Washing machines and washer-extractors— Part 3: Washing tunnel lines including component machines— Part 4: Air dryers— Part 5: Flatwork ironers, feeders and folders— Part 6: Ironing and fusing pressesSIST EN ISO 10472-5:2009
