EN 1034-5:2005 (E) 13 5.14 Unwinding unit 5.14.1 Reel shells and frame supports shall be designed such that reels and frames can be installed safely and unintended ejection is prevented. Safe installation is ensured, for example, by providing an inclined separating line of the support so that the reel or frame automatically moves into the support. Unintended ejection is prevented, for example, by providing support covers or adequately dimensioned support walls. 5.14.2 Reel shells and frame supports shall be designed such that the removal of reels or reel frames is prevented if the support cover is closed or the clutch engaged. Facilities that prevent removal of reels and frame supports when the support cover is closed are, for example, deflecting bars or guards on the support cover and on the clutch so that insertion of the crane hook is prevented. 5.14.3 Core chucks of unwinding units with shaftless winding shall not be allowed to move apart under the control of the respective control device if: a) the reel is lifted and b) the winding motion is switched on. Suppressing the interlocking function required for condition a) by means of an enabling device shall be allowed only where functional reasons require the core chucks to move apart in a position above the required level, for example, for removal of cores. For requirements of interlocking devices, see 5.7.2. 5.14.4 Core chucks of shaftless unwinding units shall only be capable of being engaged with a hold-to-run control if the danger zone is accessible. The control shall be located so that the operator is able to observe to movement. The associated control system shall be at least of category 1 according to EN 954-1:1997.
For automatic reel changing units, further safety measures are required in accordance with 5.14.7. 5.14.5 Drawing-in hazards between the reel and fixed machine parts, cylinders and other rollers shall be prevented or safeguarded for all reel diameters according to 5.4 of EN 1034-1:2000.
