EN 13035-1:2008 (E) 4 Introduction This document is a type C standard as stated in EN ISO 12100. 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. In this European Standard it is assumed that:  negotiation occurs between the manufacturer and the user/purchaser concerning particular conditions of use not dealt with in this standard and specific interfaces consideration (e.g. Annex C – Clearances for interfac-ing equipment);  the floors inside the factory used for glass charging and discharging processes are virtually horizontal and without significant asperities. 1 Scope 1.1 This standard contains the requirements for safety for the design and installation of equipment intended for the storage, handling and transportation of flat glass inside the factory as described in Clause 3. It applies to stationary, movable and mobile storage equipment (see 3.2), mechanical and pneumatic handling equipment (see 3.3) and transportation equipment (see 3.4) (see overview in Annex A). 1.2 Additional requirements for dealing with specific hazards due to the use outside the factory are dealt with in prEN 13035-2. 1.3 This standard only deals with the devices which are directly in contact with the glass. Tractors, cranes, hoists and fork lifts are out of the scope as well as parts of other powered vehicles that are not in contact with the glass (see 3.4.1).
This standard does not apply to manual handling equipment as defined in 3.3.1. 1.4 This standard deals with all significant hazards, hazardous situations and events relevant to equipment for the storage, handling and transportation of flat glass, when they are used as intended and under the conditions of misuse which are reasonably foreseeable by the manufacturer (see Clause 4). This standard specifies the appropriate technical measures to eliminate or reduce risks arising from the significant hazards during commissioning, the operation and maintenance. Noise has not been considered to be a significant hazard for any type of equipment in the scope of this standard.
1.5 This document is not applicable to storage, handling or transportation equipment for flat glass inside the factory, which is manufactured before the date of its publication as EN. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.

EN 13035-1:2008 (E) 6 3 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the terms and definitions given in EN ISO 12100-1 and the following apply. 3.1 general definitions 3.1.1 inside the factory all areas within enclosed buildings and company premises for glass manufacturing and processing in which the glass is stored and moved with the exception of building sites 3.1.2 floor structure structure which is the technical definition of the floor regarding:  surface tolerance;  inclination of the floor;  strength, i.e. surface pressure and flexural resistance 3.1.3 angle of lean angle between the plane of the glass plate and the vertical axis when it is either being stored or transported (e.g. Figure B.2) 3.1.4 pack of glass accumulation of two or more plates of the same size and substance (e.g. B.1.6 and Figure B.1) 3.1.5 bearer structural member of equipment that supports the glass. There are two main types: 3.1.5.1 back bearer fixed construction in the vertical direction which the glass plate or pack leans against (e.g. Figure B.2) 3.1.5.2 base bearer fixed construction in the horizontal direction which the glass plate or pack stands on (e.g. Figure B.2) 3.1.6 cladding material used to prevent the glass plate or pack being damaged by the bearers (e.g. Figure B.2) 3.1.7 glass-retention device facilities to secure the glass on stillages and racks 3.1.8 retention finger (top or side) movable retention device on handling equipment, such as side-loading grabs, which holds the glass pack in the proximity of its edges. It can be of fixed or adjustable length and rotating or non-rotating (e.g.
Figures B.25 to B.27 b) 3.1.9 supporting foot (shoe for beam-strap sling) device that carries the weight of the glass pack. It can be fixed, adjustable or removable depending on the type of device used (e.g. Figures B.25, B.29 and B.43)



EN 13035-1:2008 (E) 7 3.2 storage equipment stationary, movable or mobile equipments for storing glass packs or single plates. Some of these equipments are also used for transportation The different types are: 3.2.1 stationary equipment racks, either fixed or free-standing on the floor, for single plates or packs. These systems shall not be moved loaded (e.g. Figures B.1 to B.7) 3.2.2 stationary equipment with mobile frame equipment designed to save space without loss of accessibility. The different types are: 3.2.2.1 drawer type equipment where all mobile frames stand directly against each other without gaps. Each frame is pulled out longi-tudinally, either by hand or mechanically, to load or unload the glass (e.g. Figure B.8) 3.2.2.2 movable-compact equipment where all mobile frames stand directly against each other without gaps. The frames are moved trans-versely, either by hand or mechanically, to load or unload the glass (e.g. Figures B.9 and B.10) 3.2.3 movable equipment free-standing devices that are usually used for temporary storage and for transportation. They are intended to be moved loaded with glass. The different types are: 3.2.3.1 pallet device used both inside the factory for storage and also for transportation to the customer. They are characterised by their ability to be stacked vertically, one upon the other, to form a stable free-standing unit. Normally transported within the factory by a mechanical device that lifts them clear of the ground prior to movement (e.g. Figures B.11 to B.13) 3.2.3.2 stillage device normally used to transport the glass to the customer. Usually transported within the factory by a mechanical device that lifts it clear of the ground prior to movement. Typically it cannot be stacked, as a pallet, without using special ancillary equipment (e.g. Figures B.14 to B.16) 3.2.3.3 thin glass frames devices for storing and transporting packs of glass of thickness less than 2,5 mm (e.g. Figure B.24) 3.2.3.4 collier metallic packaging device used to store as well as to transport the glass to the customer. The glass stays verti-cally in the collier. The colliers are intended to be opened only in an inclined position, for instance on a stillage (e.g. Figure B.42) 3.2.4 mobile equipment devices usually used for temporary storage and for transportation normally only within the factory. They are similar to movable stillages, but are characterised by having integral wheels and can be propelled either manually or mechanically (e.g. Figures B.17 to B.21)



EN 13035-1:2008 (E) 8 3.3 handling equipment specifically designed devices to support and retain a single plate or pack of glass during transportation from one position to another 3.3.1 manual equipment devices to hold and control the glass plate during movement from one point to another such as carrying straps, vacuum pads etc. (e.g. Figures B.22 and B.23) 3.3.2 mechanical equipment devices to retain and support the glass during movement from one point to another by either manual or powered propulsion. Normally the lifting movement is power-driven. The equipment can include special devices required to handle single plates, pack(s) of thin glass. The device can be also part of the storage device NOTE Types of device used are shown in Figures B.24 to B.30. 3.3.2.1 side-loading grab mechanical equipment intended for transport of glass packs where the glass stays vertically on supporting feet and is secured by side and top fingers 3.3.3 vacuum lifting equipment devices to retain single plates. The retention force is based on the vacuum of the suction cups being sufficient to support the plate dimension and weight (e.g. Figures B.31 to B.35) 3.3.4 attachments handling devices which are attached to but not an integral part of trucks or cranes. The devices may be fixed or rotating grabs, clamps or vacuum systems
3.4 transportation equipment equipment for the movement of glass-laden storage or handling devices. The different types are: 3.4.1 by lifting prior to transportation equipment for the transportation after freeing the load from the ground by lifting. This may be hand-operated or motor-driven, with or without integrated load-securing systems (e.g. Figures B.38 to B.41) 3.4.2 by traction only equipment for the movement of glass-laden mobile storage devices operated by hand or motor-driven
3.4.3 by trailers and trolleys mobile devices used to carry glass-laden movable equipment. They are propelled either manually or by vehicles (e.g. Figure B.37) 4 List of significant hazards This clause contains the significant hazards, hazardous situations and events as far as they are dealt with in this standard, identified by risk assessment as significant for this type of machinery and which require action to elimi-nate or reduce the risk.

5 Safety requirements and/or protective measures 5.1 General Machinery shall comply with the safety requirements and/or protective measures of this clause. In addition, the machine shall be designed according to the principles of EN ISO 12100 for hazards relevant, but not significant which are not dealt with by this document (e.g. sharp edges). For applications of type B standards such as EN 294, EN 349, EN 811, EN 953, EN 983, EN 999, EN 1037, EN 1088, EN 60204-1, EN ISO 13850, the manufacturer shall carry out an adequate risk assessment for the re-quirements thereof where choice is necessary (as far as the choice is not made in the requirements of this clause). 5.2 Mechanical strength The mechanical strength of the load-bearing parts shall comply with the following: a) stationary equipment shall be capable of withstanding a load of at least 1,25 times the maximum permissible load without permanent deformation; b) for movable and mobile equipment and all handling devices intended to be lifted from the top the requirements from EN 13155:2003, 5.1.1.1;



EN 13035-1:2008 (E) 11 c) when intended for transportation by all forms of truck for speeds less than 15 km/h whether carried on forks or pulled, the movable and mobile equipment and all handling devices shall be capable of withstanding a load of at least 1,5 times the maximum permissible load or the load resulting from satisfying 5.7.5, whichever is the greater without permanent deformation. For intended speeds greater than 15 km/h, the loads resulting from the dynamic forces of 0,8 g longitudinally and 0,5 g laterally shall be taken in account. 5.3 Angle of lean 5.3.1 Storage equipment and systems The angle of lean shall be 3° minimum for all stationary systems (see 3.2.1) and 4° for all other systems described in 3.2.2 to 3.2.4, as far as they do not have a glass-retention device. If the equipment has an inherent glass-retention function, such as ”colliers”, the glass can be stored and transported in a vertical position. 5.3.2 Handling devices Side-loading grabs shall lean ”toe down” between 0,5° and 3° when loaded with glass. The empty grab ”toe up” inclination shall be kept to a minimum and shall never exceed 5° (see Figure 1). NOTE i) This is important for both the loaded and empty condition. Side-loading grabs with an automatic device for controlling the angle of lean are recommended. ii) For glass higher than 2 440 mm, the angle of grab (toe down) should not be more than 2°. iii) The foot angle can vary from 85° to 90°, and it is dependent on the specific application. The objective is to minimise or avoid relative movement of plates in a vertical position. iv) In relation to the vertical axis, the angle of lean for position ”toe down” is negative and for position ”toe up” positive.
