Safety of machinery - Ergonomic design principles - Part 1: Terminology and general principles

Safety of machinery - Ergonomic design principles - Part 1: Terminology and general principles

This European Standard establishes the ergonomic principles to be followed during the process of design of machinery.
This European Standard applies to the interactions between operators and machinery when installing, operating, adjusting, maintaining, cleaning, dismantling, repairing or transporting equipment, and outlines the principles to be followed in taking the health, safety and well-being of the operator into account. This European Standard provides a framework within which the range of more specific ergonomics standards and other related standards relevant to machinery design should be applied.
The ergonomic principles given in this European Standard apply to all ranges of human abilities and characteristics to ensure safety, health and well-being and overall system performance. Information will need to be interpreted to suit the intended use.
NOTE   Although the principles in this European Standard are orientated towards machinery for occupational use, they are also applicable to equipment and machinery for private use.

Sicherheit von Maschinen - Ergonomische Gestaltungsgrundsätze - Teil 1: Begriffe und allgemeine Leitsätze

Diese Europäische Norm legt Grundsätze der Ergonomie fest, die während des Gestaltungsprozesses von Maschinen zu beachten sind.
Diese Europäische Norm gilt für die Interaktion von Bedienperson und Maschine bei Installation, Betrieb, Einstellung, Wartung, Reinigung, Abbau, Reparatur oder Transport von Maschinen. Sie enthält die Grundsätze, die zu befolgen sind, um Gesundheit, Sicherheit und das Wohlbefinden des Bedienungspersonals sicherzustellen. Diese Norm stellt einen Rahmen dar, der auch auf spezifische ergonomische Normen und sonstige Normen zur Gestaltung von Maschinen angewendet werden sollte.
Die in dieser Europäischen Norm enthaltenen ergonomischen Grundsätze gelten für alle Bereiche menschlicher Fähigkeiten und Eigenschaften, um Sicherheit, Gesundheit und Wohlbefinden sowie die Leistungsfähigkeit des Gesamtsystems sicherzustellen. Informationen sind so zu interpretieren, dass sie für den vorgesehenen Gebrauch geeignet sind.
ANMERKUNG   Die Grundsätze in der vorliegenden Europäischen Norm orientieren sich zwar an Maschinen, die für den gewerblichen Gebrauch bestimmt sind, gelten aber auch für die im privaten Gebrauch benutzten Geräte und Maschinen.

Principles for selecting and using test persons for testing anthropometric aspects of industrial products and designs (ISO 15537:2022)
SIST EN ISO 15537:2022

This document establishes methods for determining the composition of groups of persons whose anthropometric characteristics are to be representative of the intended user population of any specific object under test.
This document is applicable to the testing of anthropometric aspects of industrial products and designs having direct contact with the human body or dependent on human body measurements, such as machinery, work equipment, personal protective equipment (PPE), consumer goods, working spaces, architectural details or transportation equipment.
This document is also applicable to the testing of such safety aspects of products that are dependent on human body measurements. It does not deal with other aspects of the task or other requirements, such as perception of information (except geometrical arrangement of the viewing targets) and the use of controls (except their geometrical placement).
Although this document deals with selecting test persons from an anthropometric perspective, similar general principles can be applied for other test variables, e.g. biomechanical aspects.

Ergonomics methods - Part 2: A methodology for work analysis to support design
SIST EN 16710-2:2016

This European Standard describes a procedure for analysing human activity in relation to specifying and refining the human component in the design or redesign of machinery and work systems.
NOTE 1   The ergonomics methodology described in this European Standard could also be applied to the design or redesign of products and non-work systems.
This European Standard is intended to assist project leaders in implementing human and physical resources, methods and schedules as well as in preparing the documents necessary to meeting related requirements.
The ergonomics methodology described can be applied to all different stages in design projects from the earliest concept to the final “prototype” or “mock-up”, whatever the industrial field or sector.
The objective of this European Standard is to achieve a solution that takes into account as many situations as possible which all users - including operators, maintenance staff and installers, may encounter. This will ultimately allow improved usability of the machinery and more robust technical solutions, combined with significantly greater system resilience, user autonomy and accessibility.
NOTE 2   Examples of the application of the methodology described in this European Standard are provided in Annex A.

Ergonomics methods - Part 1: Feedback method - A method to understand how end users perform their work with machines
SIST-TP CEN/TR 16710-1:2016

This document describes the "Feedback Method", a method designed specifically to collect the contribution of machinery end-users by reconstructing and understanding how work is actually performed (i.e. the real work). This method can help to improve technical standards, as well as the design, manufacturing, and use of machinery.
By collecting the experiences of skilled users, this method can be used to reconstruct their actual work activities under different operating conditions and with any kind of machine. This helps to identify all the critical aspects having an impact on health and safety, or associated with ergonomic principles. Moreover, it makes it possible to identify some basic elements for defining the standards for machines and for their revision and improvement. It can also improve production efficiency and identify any need for additional study and research.
The method is designed to minimize the influence of the subjectivity of the facilitators and researchers in reconstructing and describing the reality of work, and to maximize the "objective" contribution of the skilled users of the machine.
The method combines a high level of reproducibility, sensitivity, and user-friendliness with low demands in term of resources, which makes it attractive to micro, small and medium-sized enterprises.
This Technical Report is addressed to standards writers, designers and manufacturers, employers-buyers, end users, craftsmen and workers, market surveillance and authorities.

Safety of machinery - Guidance for the application of ergonomics standards in the design of machinery
SIST EN 13861:2011

This European Standard provides a methodology to achieve a coherent application of various ergonomics standards for the design of machinery. This standard presents a step model calling upon specific standards. To this end, Annex A shows a reference table with relation between hazards as described in EN ISO 12100:2010 and applicable B-standards related to ergonomics.
This European Standard can only be used in combination with other relevant ergonomics standards.
This European Standard provides guidance where no relevant or suitable ergonomics clauses in C-type standards are available.
This European Standard may also be used for incorporating ergonomics in the drafting of C-type standards.
