DANSK DS/EN 12629-6 + A1 PDF

This part of EN 12629, taken together with EN 12629-1:2000+A1:2010, applies to stationary and mobile equipment for the manufacture of precast reinforced products as defined in Clause 3 and applies to these machines also when used for the manufacture of non-reinforced moulded products. EN 12629-1:2000+A1:2010 specifies general requirements applicable to machines for the manufacture of constructional products from concrete and calcium silicate. This document specifies the additional requirements to and/or the deviations from EN 12629-1:2000+A1:2010 specific to the machines it covers. 1.2 This document applies to the modules comprising production machines (with or without turnover demoulding) for the manufacturing of reinforced moulded products as shown below and illustrated in informative Annexes A and B. NOTE – This machinery can consist of three modules and they are generally designed to obtain a large moulding capacity (middle length of the products from 3 to 4 meters), with a limit height of demoulding of 1 m and a maximum width of 1,50 m. Module A: Manufacturing machines by vibration or compression and floating, with or without turnover. Module B: Stocking/hardening unit. Module C: Assembly for palletising/packaging of the concrete products. This module also permits the inspection of the products. These machines are designed to perform the following cyclic operations: - manufacturing by vibration and even compression (oiling, mould feeding concrete + reinforcement, vibration, floating, interlocking, turnover, removing from mould); - storage of moulds and pallet boards for concrete hardening; - products destacking and packaging; - moulds and pallet boards return to the manufacturing module. Any of these operations may be manual, semi-automatic or automatic. This document deals with automatic and semi-automatic operations of modules A and C and with automatic operations of module B.
