EN 1010-5:2005/FprA1

Safety of machinery - Safety requirements for the design and construction of printing and paper converting machines - Part 5: Machines for the production of corrugated board and machines for the conversion of flat and corrugated board

This standard applies to machines for the production of corrugated board and the conversion of flat and corrugated board:
-   corrugated board production machines;
-   folder gluer machines;
-   printer slotters, rotary die cutters and combined machines (inline machines);
-   stand-alone platen presses, for single stroke mode, dwell mode and continuous operation mode, for cutting and creasing;
-   automatic flatbed punching machines;
-   tube winding machines.
This document shall be used together with EN 1010-1:2004+A1:2010. Both parts together identify all significant hazards relevant to machines for the production of corrugated board and the conversion of flat and corrugated board when they are used as intended and under the conditions foreseen by the manufacturer (see clause 4). The specific requirements in EN 1010-5 take precedence over respective requirements in EN 1010-1:2004+A1:2010.
This document does not deal with risks generated by noise emitted from the machines. These issues are fundamentally covered in EN 1010-1:2004+A1:2010. However, this document specifies requirements for noise reduction of corrugated board and flatbed punching machines.
This document is not applicable to machines for the production of corrugated board and machines for the conversion of flat and corrugated board which are manufactured before the date of publication of this document by CEN.

Overview

EN 1010-5:2005/FprA1 is a crucial European standard developed by CEN that specifies safety requirements for the design and construction of machinery used in the production and conversion of corrugated board and flat corrugated board. It is part 5 in a series dedicated to printing and paper converting machines, complementing EN 1010-1:2004+A1:2010, which addresses general safety principles. This standard targets a wide range of equipment including corrugated board production machines, folder gluer machines, printer slotters, rotary die cutters, standalone platen presses, automatic flatbed punching machines, and tube winding machines.

This standard ensures that all significant hazards relevant to these machines are identified and that appropriate safety measures are integrated into their design and operation. While noise emission risks are largely covered in EN 1010-1, EN 1010-5 includes specific provisions for noise reduction related to corrugated board and flatbed punching machines.

---

Key Topics

• Scope and Applicability
  EN 1010-5 applies specifically to machines involved in the production of corrugated board and conversion of flat and corrugated board. This includes the full spectrum of machinery type:

  • Corrugated board production machines
  • Folder gluer machines
  • Printer slotters, rotary die cutters, and inline combined machines
  • Stand-alone platen presses for single stroke, dwell, or continuous operations
  • Automatic flatbed punching machines
  • Tube winding machines
    These machines must comply with this standard if manufactured after its publication date.

• Risk and Hazard Identification
  The standard identifies mechanical hazards such as crushing, shearing, cutting/severing, entanglement, drawing-in, trapping, impacts, and the ejection of high-pressure fluids. A comprehensive list of significant hazards is included with references to respective clauses, supporting consistent risk assessment methodologies aligned with EN ISO 14121-1:2007.

• Safety Control Measures
  The standard outlines mandatory safety control requirements such as:

  • Use of trip bars, protective devices, and interlocking guards on platen presses
  • Hold-to-run controls with minimum Performance Levels (PL b) complying with EN ISO 13849-1
  • Emergency stop design principles in line with EN ISO 13850:2008
  • Use of laser scanners and pressure-sensitive protective devices conforming to EN 1760-2 and ISO 13856-2
  • Integration of safety-related electrical/electronic systems following EN 62061 and EN ISO 13849-1

• Guarding and Access Prevention
  Side access to dangerous zones must be prevented through fixed barriers, interlocking tables, or laser scanner systems ensuring operator safety during operation. Protection elements like knee bars are mandated on wider platen presses to guard against impact hazards.

---

Applications

• Safe Design and Manufacturing
  Manufacturers of corrugated board and paper converting machinery use EN 1010-5 to ensure their machines meet current EU safety directives and ergonomic standards. Incorporating these safety requirements reduces workplace accidents and enhances machine reliability.

• Operational Safety Compliance
  Plant operators and safety managers apply the standard to evaluate machine safeguarding, ensuring that operators are protected against mechanical hazards during feeding, cutting, folding, and punching operations.

• Machine Integration and Upgrades
  The standard guides engineers and integrators in retrofitting existing systems or designing standalone machines for cutting, creasing, and punching operations. Compliance with EN 1010-5 strengthens safety management systems and supports certification processes.

• Noise Reduction for Paper Converting Machines
  Specific noise reduction recommendations for corrugated board and flatbed punching machines help manufacturers minimize occupational noise exposure, addressing worker health and regulatory compliance.
