Overview

EN 12044:2005/prA1 is a Type 1 amendment to the European standard for cutting and punching machines used in footwear, leather and imitation-leather manufacturing. Prepared by CEN/TC 201, this draft amendment updates normative references, aligns the standard with the revised EU Machinery Directive (2006/42/EC), and introduces targeted editorial and technical clarifications to improve machine safety and regulatory compliance.

This amendment is primarily focused on safety requirements relevant to manufacturers, safety engineers, machine designers and conformity assessors working with footwear and leather goods manufacturing equipment.

Key Topics

  • Normative reference updates: Several referenced standards are revised to current editions, e.g. EN ISO 13849-1 (safety-related parts of control systems), EN ISO 13850 (emergency stop), and EN 60204-1:2006 (electrical equipment). These updates ensure consistent interpretation of control-system and electrical safety requirements.

  • Control system performance: The amendment specifies required performance levels (PL) from EN ISO 13849-1 for safety-related parts of control systems. Examples in the amendment include PL c, d, and e depending on the protective measure and machine function.

  • Safeguarding measures: The document clarifies requirements for a range of protective devices and guarding strategies, such as:

    • Two-hand control devices (types IIIA, IIIB, IIIC as defined in EN 574) positioned according to EN 999.
    • Electro-sensitive protective devices (AOPDs) of type 2 and type 4 in accordance with EN 61496-1 and CLC/TS 61496-2 for front and operator access protection.
    • Interlocking guards in accordance with EN 1088 and defined types in this standard, with required safety distances per EN 294/EN 953.
  • Specific machine functions: Amendments address start/restart control, horizontal head movement, cutting plate down-stroke, and operator access zones (T, S1, S2, L), specifying the appropriate safeguarding and required control-system PL.

Applications

This amendment is applicable to manufacturers and integrators of cutting and punching machines for:

  • Footwear production lines
  • Leather and imitation-leather goods fabrication
  • Retrofitting or modifying existing machines to meet the updated Machinery Directive

Benefits include clearer guidance for achieving CE conformity, reduced operator injury risk, and harmonized requirements for control-system safety and electro-sensitive protective devices.

Related Standards

  • EN ISO 13849-1: Safety-related parts of control systems (performance levels)
  • EN ISO 13850: Emergency stop principles
  • EN 60204-1:2006: Electrical equipment of machines
  • EN 61496-1 / CLC/TS 61496-2: Electro-sensitive protective equipment (AOPDs)
  • EN 574, EN 999, EN 1088, EN 294, EN 953 (guarding and control device placement)

For machine builders and compliance teams, EN 12044:2005/prA1 provides focused, practical amendments that simplify implementation of modern control-system safety and guarding measures for cutting and punching machines in the footwear and leather goods sector.
