Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www .iso .org/ directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or
on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www .iso .org/ patents).
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not
constitute an endorsement.

as well as information about ISO's adherence to the World Trade Organization (WTO) principles in the
Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) see the following URL: www .iso .org/ iso/ foreword .html.
This document was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 130, Graphic technology.
This third edition cancels and the second edition (ISO 12643-3:2010). The main changes compared to
the previous edition are as follows:
— In 5.2 Inclusion of requirements for interlocks (Clause in ISO 12643-1 deleted)

temperature monitoring in the gluing section for hardcover lines
— In 5.9.2 Addition of requirements for retraction of knife and clamp at guillotine cutters
— The equation for the calculation of the minimum safety distance at guillotine cutters was moved to
Annex B.1 as it also refers to new Clause on three-knife trimmers with manual infeed
— Addition of a new Clause 5.11 Three-knife trimmers with manual infeed
— List of significant hazards moved to an informative Annex A
— Addition of Annex ZA: Relationship between this European Standard and the essential requirements

Introduction
This document is a type-C standard as stated in ISO 12100.
The machinery concerned and the extent to which hazards, hazardous situations or hazardous events
are covered are indicated in the Scope of this document.
When requirements of this type-C standard are different from those which are stated in type-A or
type-B standards, the requirements of this type-C standard take precedence over the requirements of
the other standards for machines that have been designed and built according to the requirements of
this type-C standard.
During the development of this document, existing relevant standards of other countries were taken
into consideration. An effort has been made to harmonize the requirements of all countries, recognizing
that national standards or laws may dictate national requirements. In cases where it was known that
there is a national requirement that differs from this document, that has been noted.

Part 3:
Binding and finishing equipment and systems
1 Scope
This part of ISO 12643 provides safety requirements specific to binding and finishing equipment and
systems. This part of ISO 12643 shall be used in conjunction with ISO/FDIS 12643-1:2020. It is intended
to be used in conjunction with the general requirements given in ISO/FDIS 12643-1:2020.
This document provides additional safety requirements for the design and construction of new
equipment used to convert printed or blank substrates into cut, folded, collated, assembled, bound,
or otherwise finished product. It can also be applicable to processes for preparing substrate for the
printing process.
It is applicable to a wide range of equipment used in the binding and finishing process.
