Pertains to forming machines, used for forming food products with a mould into portions.

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:

1. 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.

2. 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.
