Food processing machinery - Automatic back splitting machines of butchery carcasses - Safety and hygiene requirements

This standard applies for automatic back splitting machines.
This standard deals with all significant hazards, hazardous situations and events relevant to machines, appliances and machinery, when they are used as intended and under the conditions foreseen by the manufacturer (see clause 4).
These significant hazards, hazardous situations and events exist during the whole life of back splitting machines.
This standard applies not to curing injection machines which are manufactured before CEN this document has published.
This European standard specifies requirements for the design and manufacture of the machines used in slaughterhouses in order to fully automatically split meat animal (beef and pork) along the back-bone axis (see figure 1).

EN 15166:2008 (E) 6 Introduction This document is a type C standard as stated in EN ISO 12100-1. The machinery concerned and the extent to which hazards, hazardous situations and events are covered are indicated in the scope of this document. When provisions of this type C standard are different from those which are stated in type A or B standards, the provisions of this type C standard take precedence over the provisions of the other standards, for machines that have been designed and built according to the provisions of this type C standard. SIST EN 15166:2009



EN 15166:2008 (E) 7 1 Scope 1.1 General This European Standard applies to automatic back splitting machines and specifies safety and health requirements for
machines used in slaughterhouses in order to fully automatically split meat animal (beef and pork) along the back-bone axis, splitting the carcass into two parts (see Figure 1). This document deals with all significant hazards, hazardous situations and events relevant to automatic back splitting 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 significant hazards, hazardous situations and events during transport, assembly and installation, commissioning and use as defined in EN ISO 12100-1:2003, 5.3. This document is not applicable to automatic back splitting machines, which are manufactured before the date of its publication as EN.

EN 15166:2008 (E) 8 1.2 Description of the concerned machines The machines concerned by this standard are those used in slaughterhouses. They are fitted with a cutting device and are driven by electric, hydraulic and/or pneumatic energy. The utilized cutting tools are:  circular saws,  splitting tools. Three types of machines are considered (see Figures 1 to 11):  Splitting machines for pork carcasses, type A (splitter),  Splitting machines for pork carcasses, type B (circular saw),  Splitting machines for beef carcasses, type C (circular saw). There are two different operation cycles:  carcasses can be splitted when they are at standstill (in general they are hanging on a sequence conveyed transport system);  carcasses can also be splitted during their continuous movement by conveyor; in this case the movement of the tool is synchronized with that of the carcass. When the split is finished, the cutting tool returns automatically to its initial position. The machines run automatically. Under normal operating conditions there is no manual intervention. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.
