BS EN 15572:2015 applies to table edge finishing machines (see 3.1) and belt edge finishing machines
(see 3.2) which are used to grind, polish, cut and shape the edge or surface of slabs, strips or tiles of natural
stone and engineered stone (e.g. agglomerated stone) as defined by EN 14618:2009.This European Standard deals with all significant hazards, hazardous situations and events relevant to edge
finishing machines, when they are used as intended and under conditions of misuse which are reasonably
foreseeable by the manufacturer (see Clause 4).This European Standard specifies the appropriate technical measures to eliminate or reduce risks arising
from the significant hazards.This European Standard deals all significant hazards that may occur within the expected lifetime of the
machinery including the phases of transport, assembly, dismantling, disabling and scrapping.This European Standard also applies to machines fitted with the following facilities/devices:automatic tool change;tilting and/or rotating head axis;rotating workpiece support(s);axes operating according a NC work programme;mechanical, pneumatic, hydraulic or vacuum workpiece clamping;and the following accessory units:spindle with grinding and polishing tool;spindle with bush-hammering tool;spindle with diamond wheel;spindle with calibrating tool;spindle with dripstone tool;spindle with cutting tool;spindle with shaping tool.This European Standard does not deal with:hand-held grinding machines;machines intended for operation in a potentially explosive atmosphere;operation in severe environmental conditions (e.g. extreme temperatures, corrosive environment);machines intended for outdoor operation.This European Standard is not applicable to machinery which is manufactured before the date of publication
of this document by CEN.Cross References:EN 349:1993+A1:2008EN 953:1997+A1:2009EN 1005-2:2003+A1:2008EN 1005-4:2005+A1:2008EN 1037:1995+A1:2008EN 1837:1999+A1:2009EN 50370-1:2005EN 50370-2:2003EN 60204-1:2006IEC 60204-1:2005EN 60529:1991IEC 60529:1989EN 61439-1:2011IEC 61439-1:2011EN 61496-1:2013IEC 61496-1:2012EN ISO 3743-1:2010ISO 3743-1:2010EN ISO 3743-2:2009ISO 3743-2:1994EN ISO 3744:2010ISO 3744:2010EN ISO 3745:2012ISO 3745:2012EN ISO 3746:2010ISO 3746:2010EN ISO 4413:2010ISO 4413:2010EN ISO 4414:2010ISO 4414:2010EN ISO 4871:2009ISO 4871:1996EN ISO 7010:2012ISO 7010:2011EN ISO 11200:2014ISO 11200:2014EN ISO 11201:2010ISO 11201:2010EN ISO 11202:2010ISO 11202:2010EN ISO 11203:2009ISO 11203:1995EN ISO 11204:2010ISO 11204:2010EN ISO 11688-1:2009ISO/TR 11688-1:1995EN ISO 12100:2010ISO 12100:2010EN ISO 13849-1:2008ISO 13849-1:2006EN ISO 13850:2008ISO 13850:2006EN ISO 14119:2013ISO 14119:20132006/42/ECEN ISO 11688-2:2000ISO/TR 11688-2:1998EN ISO 13849-2:2012ISO 13849-2:2012EN ISO 13855:2010ISO 13855:2010EN ISO 13857:2008ISO 13857:2008EN 50525-2-21:2011EN 61496-2:2013IEC 61496-2:2013EN 14618:2009All current amendments available at time of purchase are included with the purchase of this document.
