1.2 Maschinenbeschreibung
Diese Europäische Norm beschreibt die Anforderungen an die Konstruktion, die Herstellung und den Betrieb von Formmaschinen, z. B. für Frikadellen, Hamburger, die im Folgenden nur noch „Maschinen“ genannt werden.
Sie legt die Sicherheits- und Hygieneanforderungen an die Konstruktion und Herstellung von Formmaschinen fest, die zum Formen von Nahrungsmittelprodukten in Portionen mithilfe einer Form verwendet werden. Die Form kann eine gleitende oder eine umlaufende Bewegung ausführen und wird an einer Stelle mit Produkt beschickt und an einer anderen Stelle entleert.
Diese Maschinen haben eine Einfüllvorrichtung, die in den meisten Fällen ein Einfülltrichter ist (siehe Bild 1 und Bild 2). Die Formen können durch die Wirkung einer umlaufenden Endlosschraube, von umlaufenden Schaufeln oder hydraulischen Hubkolben befüllt werden. Die Maschinen können entweder einzelne oder mehrere Produktstränge produzieren.
Formmaschinen sind dazu vorgesehen, in Verbindung mit zerkleinertem Fleisch bzw. Hackfleisch, Fleisch-erzeugnissen, Fisch, Gemüse oder ähnlichen Produkten verwendet zu werden. Die Verwendung schließt die Herstellung des Produkts, Einstellarbeiten, Umrüstung, Reinigung, Fehlersuche und Instandhaltungsarbeiten ein.

EN 15165:2014 (E) 7 1 Scope 1.1 General This European Standard applies to forming machines, used for forming food products with a mould into portions, as defined in 1.2. This document applies to both machines standing on the floor and table top machines, and also to machines integrated in a processing line (i.e. interfaces, when the machine is combined with other machines). This European Standard covers the following auxiliary devices and interchangeable equipment: a) auxiliary devices: 1) paper interleavers; 2) croquette attachment; 3) meat ball rollers; 4) stick inserters; 5) specific material/product conveyors; 6) specific lifting and tilting devices. b) interchangeable equipment: 1) croquette attachment; 2) meat ball rollers; 3) stick inserters; 4) specific material/product conveyors; 5) specific lifting and tilting devices. This European Standard deals with all significant hazards, hazardous situations and events relevant to forming machines, when they are used as intended and under conditions of misuse which are reasonable foreseeable by the manufacturer (see Clause 4). This European Standard deals with the significant hazards, hazardous situations and events arising during the whole lifetime of the machine, including the phases of transport, assembly and installation, commissioning, maintenance, dismantling, disabling and scrapping and use as defined in EN ISO 12100:2010, 5.4. This European Standard is not applicable to forming machines which are manufactured before the date of publication of this document by CEN. 1.2 Machine description This European Standard specifies requirements for the design, manufacture and operating of forming machines, e.g. for rissoles, hamburgers, in the following only referred to as machines. SIST EN 15165:2015



EN 15165:2014 (E) 8 It specifies safety and hygiene requirements for design and manufacture of forming machines, which are used for forming food products into portions with a mould. The mould may have a sliding or rotary movement and is filled with product in one position and emptied in another. These machines have a feed provision, which is in the most cases a feed intake hopper (see Figure 1 and Figure 2). Moulds may be filled by the action of rotating worm, rotating paddles or reciprocating hydraulic arms. Machines produce single or multiple lines of products. Forming machines are intended for use on ground or minced meat, meat products, fish, vegetables or similar products. Use includes manufacture of product, setting, treating or process changeover, cleaning, fault finding and maintenance.

According to this definition a new machine is not existent when in a total complex single autonomous functional machines are connected in relation to function and control, but do not form a unit in relation to safety. This is given e.g. when: — on the single interfaces / interconnection points none ore only minor hazards between the separate machines occur, due to their combination; — the emergency stop of one machine is connected / looped through to the next machine since the operator’s position is only at the next machine. In such mechanical equipment each single machine can still be regarded autonomous in relation to safety. SIST EN 15165:2015
