Food processing machinery - Vegetable cutting machines - Safety and hygiene requirements
1.1 This European Standard specifies the safety and hygiene requirements for the design and manufacture of vegetable cutting machines which are transportable and have a maximum rated power less than 3 kW.
This European Standard deals with machines intended for cutting, shredding, dicing, chipping and grating of food products in which the product passes through the machine.
As described in 3.2.1, the types of machines in the scope are machines with a fixed chamber and rotating blade or cutting disc, with a rotating drum and fixed blades or machines with horizontal reciprocating cutters (mainly used for potato chipping).
1.2 This European Standard specifies all significant hazards, hazardous situations and events relevant to vegetable cutting machines, when they are used as intended and under conditions of misuse which are reasonably foreseeable by the manufacturer (see Clause 4).
This European Standard deals with the hazards which can arise during commissioning, operation, cleaning, removal of food blockages, feeding, changing the tools, maintenance and decommissioning of the machine.
1.3 This European Standard does not apply to:
- food processors (see EN 12852);
- vegetable peelers (see EN 13208);
- vegetable cutting attachments which are mounted onto machines having an auxiliary drive hub (see
EN 12851);
- planetary mixers (see EN 454);
- domestic machines.
1.4 This European Standard is not applicable to vegetable cutting machines which are manufactured before the date of its publication as EN.

Machines pour les produits alimentaires - Coupe-légumes - Prescriptions relatives à la sécurité et à l'hygiène
1.1 !La présente Norme européenne spécifie les prescriptions de sécurité et d'hygiène pour la conception et la
fabrication de coupe-légumes pouvant être transportés et ayant une puissance nominale maximale inférieure à 3 kW.
La présente Norme européenne traite des machines destinées à couper, découper en lanières, en dés, en frites
et à râper des produits alimentaires qui traversent l’appareil.
Comme décrit en 3.2.1, les machines relevant du domaine d’application sont des machines qui disposent d'une
chambre fixe équipée d'un couteau ou d'un disque coupant rotatifs, des machines à tambour rotatif et couteaux fixes,
ou des machines principalement destinées à découper les frites à l’aide de couteaux effectuant un mouvement
alternatif horizontal.
1.2 La présente Norme européenne traite de tous les phénomènes, situations et événements dangereux
significatifs spécifiques aux coupe-légumes, lorsqu'ils sont utilisés normalement et dans des conditions de mauvaises
utilisation raisonnablement prévisibles par le fabricant (voir Article 4).
La présente Norme européenne traite des phénomènes dangereux pouvant survenir durant la mise en service,
le fonctionnement, le nettoyage, le débourrage, l’alimentation, le changement des outils, la maintenance et la mise
hors service de la machine.
1.3 La présente Norme européenne ne s’applique pas aux machines suivantes :
- préparateurs culinaires (voir EN 12852) ;
- éplucheuses à légumes (voir EN 13208) ;
- les accessoires de coupe montés sur des machines ayant une prise de mouvement auxiliaire (voir EN 12851) ;
- les batteurs-mélangeurs (voir EN 454) ;
- les machines à usage domestique.
1.4 La présente Norme européenne n’est pas applicable aux coupe-légumes fabriqués avant la date de
publication du présent document en tant qu'EN."
Stroji za predelavo hrane - Stroji za rezanje zelenjave - Varnostne in higienske zahteve (vključno z dopolnilom A1)
Ta evropski standard določa varnostne in higienske zahteve za načrtovanje in izdelavo strojev za rezanje zelenjave, ki so premični in imajo najvišjo nazivno moč nižjo kot 3kW. Ta evropski standard obravnava stroje, namenjene rezanju, strganju, rezanju v kocke, rezanje na rezine in strganju živil, pri katerih proizvod gre skozi stroj. Kot je opisano v 3.2.1., so vrste strojev, ki jih obravnava, stroji z fiksno posodo in rotirajočim rezilom ali rezilnim diskom, z rotirajočim bobnom in fiksnimi rezili ali stroji s horizontalnimi izmeničnimi rezili (uporaba v glavnem za rezanje krompirja na rezine). Ta evropski standard obravnava vse velike nevarnosti, nevarne situacije in primere, ki se tičejo strojev za rezanje zelenjave, kadar se uporabljajo, kot predvideno, in pod pogoji napačne uporabe, ki jih razumno predvidi proizvajalec (glej Klavzulo 4). Ta evropski standard se ukvarja z nevarnostmi, ki se lahko pojavijo med zagonom, delovanjem, čiščenjem, odstranitvijo blokad hrane, polnjenjem, menjavo orodij, vzdrževanjem in izločitvijo naprave iz uporabe.

A cutting plate or blade consists of one or more cutting edges fixed to a frame. Fixed cutting blades may be installed in conjunction with moving plates; an ejector; a delivery chute; control devices. 3.2.3 Devices for feeding Three devices for feeding product are used: 3.2.3.1 Hopper feed The product is fed to the cutter from the hopper generally by gravity and/or by feeding devices.

Where a pusher device is used, this can restart the machine without operating the on/off switch. For those machines the stopping time shall be less than 2 s. It shall be measured when the machine is running without product at its maximum speed and equipped with the heaviest cutting device. The safety interlocked switch shall be actuated when the gap (x) between the top of the aperture and the edge of the pusher is as shown in figure 5, where: x ≤ 60 mm for a ≥ 150 mm x ≤ 45 mm for 130 mm ≤ a < 150 mm SIST EN 1678:2000+A1:2010
