Food processing machinery - Clipping machines - Safety and hygiene requirements
This document specifies safety and hygiene requirements of clipping machines (hereafter referred to as machine) for closing of casings filled with foodstuffs (hereafter referred to as product) by using a clip, and which are intended to be used in butcheries, meat processing factories, main kitchens and other food processing factories.
Clipping machines are used to close tubes with a single clip (one side) or a double clip (end locking and start locking).
The machines are equipped with closing tools (punch/die), which create the closure by deforming the locking element (clip).
This document deals with all significant hazards, hazardous situations and hazardous events relevant to machinery when it is used as intended and under conditions of misuse which are reasonably foreseeable by the manufacturer (see Clause 4).
This document covers the following types of machines:
— semi-automatic machine (see Figure 1 and Figure 2);
— automatic machine (see Figure 3).
This document does not cover any machines whose closing procedure is only performed manually.
This document is not applicable to machinery manufactured before the date of publication of this document by CEN.

This document is of relevance, in particular, for the following stakeholder groups representing the market
players with regard to machinery safety:
— machine manufacturers (small, medium and large enterprises);
— health and safety bodies (regulators, accident prevention organizations, market surveillance etc.).
Others can be affected by the level of machinery safety achieved with the means of the document by the
above-mentioned stakeholder groups:
— machine users/employers (small, medium and large enterprises);
— machine users/employees (e.g. trade unions, organizations for people with special needs);
— service providers, e.g. for maintenance (small, medium and large enterprises);

4 Safety requirements and/or protective reduction measures
4.1 General
Clipping machines shall comply with the safety requirements and/or protective measures of this clause.
In addition, the machine shall be designed according to the principles of the EN ISO 12100:2010, Clause 4,
for relevant but not significant hazards which are not dealt with by this document (e.g. sharp edges).
The interlocking devices associated with guards shall at least comply with EN ISO 14119:2013 Type 1,
and shall not be positioned in the food area (e.g. inside the machine housing or another housing).
Machines safety functions are implemented and ensured through Safety-Related Parts of the Control
System (SRP/CS) that shall achieve a required Performance Level (PLr) in accordance with
EN ISO 13849-1:2015. This requirement is given for each safety function in the relevant subclauses of
Clause 4.
Table C.1 summarizes PL for each safety function; however, the provisions of Clause 4 remain the sole
r
and complete normative set of requirements and explanations.
The maximum forces which can act on body parts shall not exceed the values stated in Table 1.

The transient contact is based on a maximum action duration of 0,5 s.
On clipping machines, a normal stop device shall be provided on each workstation to stop the machine.
The normal stop device requires a performance level PL of at least “c” in accordance with
r
EN ISO 13849-1:2015. The stopping function of the normal stop device shall be in accordance with
EN 60204-1:2018, 9.2.2, Category 0.
When power is recovered or when the power supply is switched on, restarting of the machine shall be
prevented.

4.2.1.2.1 General
On semi-automatic machines there exists a crushing hazard for fingers caused by the closure tool and
severing hazard for fingers due to the movement of the dividing knife.
Access to the danger point shall be prevented or secured:
— at a distance s ≤ 8 mm by the dimensions x ≥ 2 mm and y ≥ 5 mm (see Figure 4);

This document is a type-C standard as stated in EN ISO 12100:2010.
The machinery concerned and the extent to which hazards, hazardous situations and events are
covered are indicated in the scope of this document.
For machines that have been designed and built according to the requirements of this type-C-standard:
when requirements of this type-C standard are different from those which are stated in type-A or type-
B-standards, the requirements of this type-C-standard take precedence over the requirements of the

1 Scope
This document specifies safety and hygiene requirements of clipping machines (hereafter referred to as
machine) for closing of casings filled with foodstuffs (hereafter referred to as product) by using a clip,
and which are intended to be used in butcheries, meat processing factories, main kitchens and other
food processing factories.
Clipping machines are used to close tubes with a single clip (one side) or a double clip (end locking and
start locking).
The machines are equipped with closing tools (punch/die), which create the closure by deforming the
locking element (clip).
This document deals with all significant hazards, hazardous situations and hazardous events relevant to
machinery when it is used as intended and under conditions of misuse which are reasonably
foreseeable by the manufacturer (see Clause 4).
This document covers the following types of machines:
— semi-automatic machine (see Figure 1 and Figure 2);
— automatic machine (see Figure 3).
This document does not cover any machines whose closing procedure is only performed manually.
This document is not applicable to machinery manufactured before the date of publication of this
document by CEN.

Clipping machines shall comply with the safety requirements and/or protective measures of this clause.
In addition, the machine shall be designed according to the principles of the EN ISO 12100:2010 for
relevant but not significant hazards which are not dealt with by this document (e.g. sharp edges).
For risks which are to be reduced by the application of type-B-standards such as
EN 614-1:2006+A1:2009, EN 1005-3:2002+A1:2008, EN 1672-2:2005+A1:2009, EN 60204-1:2006,

and EN ISO 14120:2015, the machine manufacturer shall carry out a risk assessment to establish the
requirements of the type-B-standard. This specific risk assessment shall be part of the general risk
assessment of this machine.

Where risk reduction is to be achieved through the physical arrangement or positioning of the machine,
the manufacturer shall make reference to the reduction means to be provided, and to any limiting value
of the requirement and, if appropriate, to the means of verification in the instruction handbook.
Where the means of reducing the risk is through a safe system of operating the machinery, the
manufacturer shall include in the instruction handbook details of the system and of the elements of
training required for the operating personnel.
The machines shall be designed and built in accordance with the requirements specified below.
Fixing devices for stationary guards that are removed by the user shall remain on the separating guards
or the machine if the separating guard is removed.
Movable guards shall be interlocked (see 5.3.6).
A corresponding reference in image and written form regarding the fixed guards that may be opened by
the operator and those that may only be opened by maintenance personnel shall be a part of the
instruction handbook (see 7.2 f)).
A permissible crushing force shall be limited according to Table 2 below.
