EN 415-8:2008 (E) 5 Introduction Strapping machines are used extensively in Europe, in an increasingly wide range of industries. They contain several significant hazards and have the potential to cause serious injury. The machinery concerned and the extent to which hazards, hazardous situations and events are covered are indicated in the scope of this European Standard. When provisions of this type C standard are different from those that are stated in type A or B standards, the provisions of this type C standard take precedence over the provisions of the other standards, for machines that have been designed and built according to the provisions of this type C standard. 1 Scope This European Standard applies to the following groups of machines: powered hand strapping tools; semi-automatic strapping machines; automatic strapping machines; horizontal pallet strapping machines; vertical pallet strapping machines. The individual machines are described in 3.3. This European Standard deals with safety requirements for machine design, construction, installation, commissioning, operation, adjustment, maintenance and cleaning of strapping machines. The extent to which hazards, hazardous situations and events are covered, are indicated in Clause 4. Exclusions This European Standard is not applicable to the following machines: strapping tools that are powered exclusively by manual effort; strapping machines that were manufactured before the date of publication of this document by CEN. This European Standard does not consider the following hazards: the use of strapping machines in potentially explosive atmospheres; the health, safety or hygiene hazards associated with the products that may be handled by the machines, but does include general advice on this subject; hazards that can be associated with electromagnetic emissions from strapping machines; hazards that can be associated with decommissioning strapping machines.
