Graphic technology -- Safety requirements for printing press systems

This International Standard provides safety requirements for the design and construction of machines used in printing press systems, including auxiliary equipment and finishing machines, in which all the machine actuators (e.g. drives) of the equipment in the system are controlled by the same control system. It is applicable only to systems in which a printing press is part of the system. In cases where a binding/finishing system is not integrated with a printing press, ISO 12649 [32] will apply. It addresses recognized hazards specific to printing press systems in the following areas: - mechanical; - electrical; - slipping, tripping, falling; - ergonomics; - noise; - radiation; - fire and explosion; - thermal; - emissions. Equipment covered by this International Standard may be used in a stand-alone configuration, or in combination with other machines affected by an integrated control system. These may include, but are not limited to, the combinations of the machines noted in Clause 4. This International Standard applies to machines manufactured one year or more after the date of publication of this International Standard.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 12648 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 130, Graphic technology.

ISO 12648:2006(E) © ISO 2006 – All rights reserved vForeword ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 12648:2006(E) © ISO 2006 – All rights reserved 1Graphic technology — Safety requirements for printing press systems 1 Scope This International Standard provides safety requirements for the design and construction of machines used in printing press systems, including auxiliary equipment and finishing machines, in which all the machine actuators (e.g. drives) of the equipment in the system are controlled by the same control system. It is applicable only to systems in which a printing press is part of the system. In cases where a binding/finishing system is not integrated with a printing press, ISO 12649 [32] will apply. It addresses recognized hazards specific to printing press systems in the following areas: ⎯ mechanical; ⎯ electrical; ⎯ slipping, tripping, falling; ⎯ ergonomics; ⎯ noise; ⎯ radiation; ⎯ fire and explosion; ⎯ thermal; ⎯ emissions. Equipment covered by this International Standard may be used in a stand-alone configuration, or in combination with other machines affected by an integrated control system. These may include, but are not limited to, the combinations of the machines noted in Clause 4. This International Standard applies to machines manufactured one year or more after the date of publication of this International Standard.
