Introduction
This International Standard has been created in recognition of the particular hazards that are presented
by thermal cutting machines.
This International Standard is a type-C standard as outlined in ISO 12100.
When provisions of a type-C standard are different from those which are stated in type-A or type-B
standards, the provisions of the type-C standard will take precedence over the provisions of the other
standards for machines that have been designed and built in accordance with the provisions of the
type-C standard.
The machinery concerned and the extent to which hazards, hazardous situations, and events are
covered are indicated in the Scope of this International Standard.
Hazards associated with thermal cutting machines are well recognized, but the sources of the hazards
are frequently unique to a particular thermal cutting system. The number and type(s) of hazard(s) is
(are) directly related to the nature of the thermal cutting process and the complexity of the installation.
The risks associated with these hazards vary with the type of equipment used, its purpose, and the way
in which it is installed, programmed, operated, and maintained.
This International Standard is not applicable to thermal cutting machines that were manufactured
prior to its publication date.

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 17916:2016(E)
Safety of thermal cutting machines
1 Scope
This International Standard specifies the safety requirements and measures for machinery covering
design, construction, production, transport, installation, operation, maintenance, and putting out of
service.
This International Standard applies to machinery using thermal cutting and or marking processes such
as oxy-fuel, plasma arc. This International Standard applies to machinery the basis of which is either
designed as open gantry, cantilever machine, or the track of which is incorporated in the cutting table.
This International Standard does not cover design standards for specific tools, e.g. oxy-fuel hose
standards, electrical requirements for plasma power supplies. Most tools used on thermal cutting
machines have specific design standards.
This International Standard does not cover handheld cutting equipment and cutting equipment which
is combined with a constrained tracking system mounted on the work piece.
Risks arising from thermal cutting tools may be covered by related standards.
Risks arising from laser radiation, except those caused by position indicating lasers, are not covered by
this International Standard. Those risks are covered by ISO 11553.
Machines that combine thermal processes with other processes (e.g. grinding, drilling, milling, etc.) are
only partly covered. Risks arising from these other processes may be covered by related standards.

Introduction
This International Standard has been created in recognition of the particular hazards that are presented
by thermal cutting machines.
This International Standard is a type-C standard as outlined in ISO 12100.
When provisions of a type-C standard are different from those which are stated in type-A or type-B
standards, the provisions of the type-C standard will take precedence over the provisions of the other
standards for machines that have been designed and built in accordance with the provisions of the
type-C standard.
The machinery concerned and the extent to which hazards, hazardous situations, and events are
covered are indicated in the Scope of this International Standard.
Hazards associated with thermal cutting machines are well recognized, but the sources of the hazards
are frequently unique to a particular thermal cutting system. The number and type(s) of hazard(s) is
(are) directly related to the nature of the thermal cutting process and the complexity of the installation.
The risks associated with these hazards vary with the type of equipment used, its purpose, and the way
in which it is installed, programmed, operated, and maintained.
This International Standard is not applicable to thermal cutting machines that were manufactured
prior to its publication date.

FINAL DRAFT INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO/FDIS 17916:2015(E)
Safety of thermal cutting machines
1 Scope
This International Standard specifies the safety requirements and measures for machinery covering
design, construction, production, transport, installation, operation, maintenance, and putting out of
service.
This International Standard applies to machinery using thermal cutting and or marking processes such
as oxy-fuel, plasma arc. This International Standard applies to machinery the basis of which is either
designed as open gantry, cantilever machine, or the track of which is incorporated in the cutting table.
This International Standard does not cover design standards for specific tools, e.g. oxy-fuel hose
standards, electrical requirements for plasma power supplies. Most tools used on thermal cutting
machines have specific design standards.
This International Standard does not cover handheld cutting equipment and cutting equipment which
is combined with a constrained tracking system mounted on the work piece.
Risks arising from thermal cutting tools may be covered by related standards.
Risks arising from laser radiation, except those caused by position indicating lasers, are not covered by
this International Standard. Those risks are covered by ISO 11553.
Machines that combine thermal processes with other processes (e.g. grinding, drilling, milling, etc.) are
only partly covered. Risks arising from these other processes may be covered by related standards.

up, production, maintenance, repair, decommissioning) during the life of the machine. The assessment
includes an analysis of the effect of failure in the control system. Following the intended use of the
machine which includes maintenance, setting and cleaning, the reasonably foreseeable misuse, the
identification of the significant hazards associated with the machine, and risks shall be evaluated.
For identification and evaluation of hazards, ISO 12100 applies.
5 Safety requirements and protective measures
5.1 General
Machines covered by this International Standard shall meet the safety requirements listed hereafter.
With regard to hazards not covered by this International Standard, these machines shall be designed in
compliance with the principles given in ISO 12100.
Machines, covered by this International Standard, shall be equipped with protective devices shown in
the Table 1, column 2.
Machines requiring access to the movement envelope during operation require protective devices against
collision with the gantry in the movement envelope. Protective devices against collision with the gantry
in the movement envelope may not be required in all situations, e.g. for machines having construction-
related short operating cycles, or a cutting table which is not suited for access due to its design.

NOTE There could be specific national regulations in force dealing with
this topic.
The safety area to the outer machine movement envelope shall be installed
according to ISO 13854 and ISO 13857.
This safety area shall be defined in the manufacturer’s instructions.
For safety devices outside the machine, the required performance level is D
according to ISO 13849-1.
EXAMPLE Possible safety devices are ESPE using AOPD, active bumpers,
trip wires, fences, safety (shut-off) mats, etc.
To allow the operator sufficient access to the machine in normal operation,
a clearance of 500 mm from the machine movement envelope shall be kept
free of obstructions. Due to the fact that the hazards are easily recogniza
ble, a presence detection system for this clearance area is not required.
If the safety area as designed by the manufacturer cannot be realized
around the movement envelope due to site specific restraints, then the
requirements specified in 1.1 shall be met.
