This document deals with all significant hazards, hazardous situations and events relevant to derinding , skinning- and membrane removal machines, when they are used as intended and under conditions of misuse which are reasonably foreseeable by the manufacturer (see Clause 4).
This document deals with the hazards which can arise during commissioning, operation, cleaning, use, maintenance and decommissioning of the machine.
The machines described in this standard are used for derinding-, skinning- and membrane removal of meat and fish by cutting at a straight blade and/or cutting with circular blades. Feeding could be done manually or automatically.
Using open derinding-, skinning- and membrane removal machines, the product is guided by hand towards the cutting device.
With automatic derinding-, skinning and membrane removal machines the product is transported by an infeed conveyor against the cutting device. Product with a weight > 25 kg has to be processed by an automatic machine.
Derinding-, skinning-, and membrane removal machines for domestic purposes, hand-guided machines and table-top machines are not covered by this standard.
This document only applies to machines which are manufactured after the date of issue of this document.
This document covers the following types of machines:
a)   open derinding machines (see Figure 1 and Figure 2) with infeed table and a distance h between the standing position and the surface of the infeed table from 800 mm to 1 050 mm. The cutting thickness shall be t ≤ 5 mm;
b)   open skinning- and membrane removal machines (see Figure 1 and Figure 3) with infeed table and a distance h between the standing position and the surface of the infeed table from 800 mm to 1 050 mm. The cutting thickness shall be t ≤ 0,5 mm.

This document is not applicable to food depositors that were manufactured before the date of its publication as a European Standard.
1.2   Types of food depositors
1.2.1   General
This European Standard deals with five different types of food depositors. These machines can be free standing machines or be assemblies incorporated into other machines e.g. pie and tart machines. Food depositors may work fully automatically integrated with a product conveyor or product indexing mechanism or semi-automatically discharging a deposit when required by an operator.
1.2.2   Piston depositor
A piston depositor typically comprises a hopper, a rotary valve, a product measuring chamber in the form of a piston and a product dispensing valve. Some piston depositors incorporate several product measuring chambers and dispensing valves. Some designs dispense the product directly from the rotary valve without the use of a separate product dispensing valve. The volume of product dispensed is varied by altering the stroke of the product measuring chamber piston. Piston depositors are used to fill liquids, liquids containing solids in suspension and pastes. The product dispensing valve may be attached rigidly to the depositor or using a flexible pipe and in some cases is held by the operator. Figure 1 shows the typical cross section of a piston depositor.
(...)
1.2.3   Chamber depositor
A chamber depositor comprises a hopper feeding one or more product measuring chambers that are filled under gravity from the top. When the chamber has been filled with product the flow of product is stopped either by moving the chamber or using a product cutting device. The chamber is then discharged through the bottom of the chamber either by moving the chamber or by moving a plate in the base of the chamber. The volume of product dispensed is varied by altering the volume of the chamber. Chamber depositors are typically used to deposit free-flowing products like cooked rice or pasta. Figure 2 shows the typical cross section of a chamber depositor.
(...)
1.2.4   Roller depositor
A roller depositor typically comprises a hopper that feeds product to two or more fluted contra-rotating rollers. These rollers force the product through one or more dies that shape the product. (....)

1.3   Combinations of forming machines and auxiliary devices and/or interchangeable equipment
1.3.1   Definition
A combination of a forming machine with auxiliary devices and/or interchangeable equipment becomes a new machine, when the following requirements are fulfilled / met:
-   the (combined) device/equipment works together as an entity, meaning from production related view they form an entity (i.e. the coaction will be focused on a shared aim) and
-   they are controlled as an entity, via a shared or linked control system and
-   they work - regarding safety - together as an entity and also form a unit in this aspect.
According to this definition a new machine is not existent when in a total complex single autonomous functional machines are connected in relation to function and control, but do not form a unit in relation to safety. This is given e.g. when:
-   on the single interfaces / interconnection points none ore only minor hazards between the separate machines occur, due to their combination;
-   the emergency stop of one machine is connected / looped through to the next machine since the operator’s position is only at the next machine.
In such mechanical equipment each single machine can still be regarded autonomous in relation to safety.
