This European Standard applies to footwear moulding machines which are intended for use in the shoe industry for the production of footwear and footwear components. These machines are: - direct-on sole moulding machines (see Figures 1, 2 and 3); - unit sole and footwear component moulding machines (see Figures 4 to 10); - full shoe and boot moulding machines (see Figure 11). This European Standard applies also to the mentioned machines when used for other products than footwear and footwear components, as far as these products require no other changes than a different mould. 1.2 This European Standard specifies safety requirements for construction, transport, installation, adjustment, setting, teaching or process change-over, operation, cleaning, maintenance, decommissioning, dismantling and, as far as safety is concerned, disposal for machines mentioned in l.1.

NOTE – For metering and mixing units, see EN 1612-1. The use of machines within the scope of this European Standard in industries other than those specified in 1.1 may give rise to hazards not considered during its preparation.
