3 !!!!Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this document, the terms and definitions given in EN ISO 12100-1:2003,
EN ISO 12100-2:2003 and the following apply.
NOTE Definitions used in EN and ISO standards referred to in this European Standard are also valid for this
European Standard.
3.1
moulding machinery
machines used to make sand moulds. There are various machinery types which compact granular moulding
materials including:
jolt moulding machines (compaction by jolting the moulding machine deck),
squeeze moulding machines (compaction by squeezing the pattern equipment and the moulding sand
together),
jolt and squeeze moulding machines,
shoot-/blow- and squeeze moulding machines,
impulse moulding machines (the moulding sand is compacted by a compression wave which acts on the
top of the sand fill),
air-flow-squeeze moulding machines (similar to impulse-moulding machines, except that the compressed
air escapes through nozzles in the pattern plate),
dynamic squeeze moulding machines (compensating pressure squeeze pistons act on the top of the sand
fill),
suction and squeeze moulding machines (the pressure differential between the moulding box and the
pattern draws in the moulding sand),
vacuum-moulding machines (unbonded sand is compacted by vacuum),
sand slingers (the moulding sand is flung into the moulding box by the centrifugal force of a rotating
wheel).
3.2
moulding plant
equipment used to make ready-to-pour sand moulds. A moulding plant consists of moulding stations
(automatic moulding machines for complete moulds) or several moulding machines (moulding group) that
produce the moulding parts separately. It may also include lines for core setting, mould closing, weighting or
clamping, pouring, cooling, knocking-out of the mould parts and emptying of the boxes as well as integral
transfer systems linking the various stations and lines
3.3
disposable mould

Movable guards in danger zones with fixed cycle intervention or access (e. g. during loading and unloading of
parts), set-up activities, periodical manual cleaning or spraying or troubleshooting is required, shall incorporate
guard interlocking according to EN 1088.
When the guard is open, the drive power supply for the relevant hazardous movements shall be positively
disconnected.
5.1.3.2 Interlocking guard with guard locking
An interlocking guard with guard locking effective within the hazardous period shall be used when the stopping
time of the hazardous movement is greater than the access time of a person in reaching the danger zone.
5.1.3.3 Closing the guards
Closing the guards shall not initiate operation of hazardous movements. If movement was interrupted by
opening of an interlocked danger zone guard, the restart shall be performed by actuation from outside the
guard.
5.1.3.4 Power operated guards
Power operated guards shall not create a trap. Either the power provided shall be insufficient to cause injury in
the event of trapping, or the guard shall be provided with a safety trip device to prevent injury.
Actuation of the safety trip device shall stop or reverse the direction of movement of the movable guard.
5.1.4 Electro-sensitive protective devices (ESPD)
If electro-sensitive protective devices (see EN 61496-1) are used then the following requirements shall be
met:
a) the control system of the machine shall be able to interrupt the hazardous movement in time when it
receives the output signal from such a protective device;
b) they shall switch on if the control system of the machine is connected,
c) they shall be tested at each machine cycle;
d) they shall not act as control devices;
e) they shall not be adjustable neither in the vertical nor in the horizontal direction;
f) they shall be interlocked with the hazardous movements of the machine;
g) the output-signals of such devices shall be independent of the electronic control system of the machine or
shall be connected to failsafe PLC;
h) the protective field of such devices shall cover the access area;
i) they shall be positioned so that persons cannot remain between the protective field of the device and the
danger zone and initiate a machine cycle;
