EN 415-1:2014 (E) 4 Introduction Packaging machines are used extensively in Europe, in an increasingly wide range of industries. They contain many hazards and have the potential to cause serious injury. There are an enormous variety of packaging machines, but hitherto there has been no internationally agreed nomenclature. This has led to confusion when reporting accidents and interpreting accident and trade statistics. The purpose of this standard is to name and define each group of packaging machines uniquely. In most cases, these names will already be in common use, however in some cases the commonly used name is ambiguous, a trade name, or used to describe more than one significantly different type of machine. In these cases, a less familiar name will be defined. The identification of specific types of packaging machines and their definition assists in the correct application of the EN 415 series of standards and other standards that may be relevant for packaging machines. Machine designers, manufacturers, suppliers, importers, users, enforcing authorities and other interested bodies are encouraged to use the nomenclature in this type “C” standard to improve communication and to avoid confusion, particularly when reporting accidents and preparing the documentation required by EU Directives. SIST EN 415-1:2014
