Overview
EN 13112:2002+A1:2009 is a CEN European Standard that defines safety requirements for tannery machines, specifically splitting machines and bandknife shearing machines used for the splitting and shearing of leather and synthetic materials. The standard covers design, construction, operation, adjustment, setting, cleaning and maintenance for machines intended for fixed installation. It incorporates Amendment 1 (2009) and supports conformity with relevant EU machinery directives (see Annex ZA/ZB).
Key topics and technical requirements
This standard concentrates on machine safety and risk reduction by addressing the following technical topics:
- Hazard identification and safeguarding - Significant hazards are listed (clause 4) and safeguarded by requirements in clause 5 (mechanical, electrical, noise, etc.).
- Mechanical hazards - Risks from moving parts of splitting and bandknife shearing machines (feeding, cutting, rotating elements).
- Electrical safety - Requirements for electrical equipment and protections in line with referenced standards.
- Control systems & emergency stop - Safety-related control design, emergency stop arrangements and interlocks.
- Guarding and access zones - Requirements for fixed and movable guards, safe access for adjustment, cleaning and maintenance.
- Bandknife changing - Specific risks and safety measures for replacing bandknives.
- Slip, trip and fall prevention and high‑pressure fluid ejection safeguards.
- Noise - Measures to limit exposure and information for use.
- Dust and fire - Not fully covered as protected hazards; normative Annex A provides guidelines for dust and fire prevention. Designers and manufacturers must verify effectiveness of these measures.
- Verification and documentation - Verification procedures, instruction handbook, marking and user information.
Referenced normative documents include machine-safety standards such as EN ISO 12100, EN 60204-1, guarding/ interlock standards (EN 953 / EN 1088) and acoustic standards noted in the normative references.
Applications and who uses it
EN 13112:2002+A1:2009 is intended for:
- Machine designers and manufacturers of splitting and bandknife shearing equipment for tanneries.
- Safety engineers and compliance officers assessing machine conformity with EU machinery directives.
- Tannery operators, maintenance and installation teams who need safe procedures for operation, adjustment, cleaning and maintenance.
- Purchasers and notified bodies evaluating machine safety prior to procurement or certification.
Practical benefits include reduced accident risk, clearer requirements for guarding and controls, and guidance for safe maintenance and knife-changing procedures.
Related standards
Relevant standards referenced in EN 13112 include (but are not limited to) EN ISO 12100, EN 60204-1, EN 953, EN 1088 and various acoustic and safety control documents. Note: the standard does not address electromagnetic disturbances and may need supplementation (e.g., ATEX Directive 94/9/EC) for explosive atmospheres.

5 Safety requirements and/or measures !deleted text" 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 12100-2 for relevant but not significant hazards which are not dealt with by this document. For hazards which are to be reduced by the application of a type B-standard such as EN 294, EN 953,
EN ISO 13850, EN 60204-1 etc., the manufacturer shall carry out a risk assessment to establish the requirements of the B-standards which are to be applied." 5.2 Common requirements concerning splitting machines 5.2.1 Mechanical equipment 5.2.1.1 Safeguarding against the hazards generated by moving transmission parts (such as pulleys, belts, gears, rack, etc.) shall be ensured by: fixed enclosing guards in accordance with !EN 953 and 5.3.2.2 of EN ISO 12100-2:2003"; or movable interlocking guards in accordance with !EN 953, EN 1088 and 5.3.2.3 of
EN ISO 12100-2:2003". 5.2.1.2 Hazardous motions of moving machinery parts, feed systems, grinding units, tools and workpieces shall be safeguarded by
fixed enclosing guards, covers which satisfy !EN 953 and 5.3.2.2 of EN ISO 12100-2:2003"; or fixed distance guards which satisfy !EN 953 and 5.3.2.3 of EN ISO 12100-2:2003" and the distances given in the appropriate table (1, 3 or 4) of EN 294:1992. SIST EN 13112:2003+A1:2010

On release of the force no detectable distortion of the guard shall remain. 5.2.1.4 Where the above measures cannot be applied, devices shall be provided which !will shutdown the" hazardous motion !before" the danger point. !Suitable protective devices are: movable interlocking guards which satisfy EN 953 and EN 1088, 5.3.2.3 of EN ISO 12100-2:2003 and the distances given in the appropriate table (1 or 3) of EN 294; trip devices, such as electrosensitive protective devices satisfying EN 61496-1, CLC/TS 61496-2 and EN 999; pressure sensitive protective device satisfying EN 1760-2 type 3.1 or 3.2." 5.2.2 Electrical equipment 5.2.2.1 Electrical systems and equipment shall be in accordance with EN 60204-1. Control and safety devices shall be protected to IP55 level. Specific levels of protection are defined in
!EN 60529". 5.2.2.2 All operating controls requiring adjustment for changing the working process shall be located on the outside of the electrical cabinet. NOTE Controls for routine electrical adjustment are for example time, speed or pressure variation. 5.2.3 Slip, trip and fall hazard Hazards, slipping especially, may arise from substances spilling and overflowing during processing. The manufacturer shall include in the “instructions for use” information on water and grease, if discharged from the machine. Advice on the need to provide, at machine installation, safeguards such as footboards, non-slip floors etc., shall be noted in the instruction handbook (!see 7.3.2 j)"). 5.2.4 High pressure fluid ejection If a machine is fitted with hydraulic/pneumatic equipment, a loss of fluid under high pressure may arise and result in a hazard of impact either directly or by impelled obje
