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 (http://www.iso.org/patents).

ISO 11111-1:2016(E)
Introduction
ISO 11111‑1 to ISO 11111‑7 were prepared simultaneously by ISO/TC 72 and CEN/TC 214, and adopted
under the Vienna Agreement in order to obtain identical standards on technical safety requirements
for the design and construction of textile machinery.
ISO 11111 as a whole is intended for use by any person concerned with the safety of textile machinery,
for example, textile machinery designers, manufacturers and systems integrators. It is also of interest
to users of textile machines and safety experts.
This part of ISO 11111 is a type C standard as stated in ISO 12100. The various parts of ISO 11111 deal
with significant hazards generated by machines used in the textile industry. The machinery concerned
and the extent to which hazards are covered are indicated in the scope of this part of ISO 11111.
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.
For machines or machine equipment not dealt with in the relevant parts of ISO 11111, the
designer performs a risk assessment according to ISO 12100 and provides means for reducing
the risk from significant hazards. These risk reduction measures that need to be identified by the
designer/manufacturer of the machinery by risk assessment are outside the scope of this standard.
This part of ISO 11111 contains a summary of safety requirements and/or measures for frequently
occurring hazards of textile machinery (see Clause 5) which apply whenever referred to in this, or the
other parts of ISO 11111.
Significant hazards and corresponding safety requirements and/or measures for certain machine
elements (e.g. rollers) and their combination of textile machines are also described (see Clause 6).
The various parts of ISO 11111 address significant hazards and corresponding safety requirements
and/or measures for specific types of textile machines. As far as possible, these are treated by way
of reference to Clauses 5 and 6 and other cross‑references (see general safety requirements), thus
reducing considerably the volume by avoiding many repetitions. The standard for a specific textile
machine will normally consist of this part of ISO 11111 and the specific part relevant to that machine.
ISO 11111‑2 to ISO 11111‑7 may also contain exceptions or additions to the requirements given in this
part of ISO 11111 (see specific safety requirements).

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 11111-1:2016(E)
Textile machinery — Safety requirements —
Part 1:
Common requirements
1 Scope
This part of ISO 11111 specifies safety requirements for frequently occurring hazards common to the
types of textile machinery and the hazards of certain machine elements covered by ISO 11111‑2 to
ISO 11111‑7. The standard series is complemented by the type C standards ISO 9902 (all parts) with
respect to noise emission measurement and ISO 23771 with respect to measures for the reduction of
noise emissions.
This part of ISO 11111 is applicable to machinery plant and related equipment intended to be used in
the textile industry for the following purposes:
— opening, cleaning, blending, carding, preparation subsequent to carding, spinning and other
processing of fibres (staple and filament) and other materials to form yarn or nonwoven material
(including felts);
— winding, doubling, twisting, texturing, etc., of yarns and the processing of yarns preparatory to
weaving and knitting;
— weaving, knitting, lace‑making and similar utilization of yarn, etc., to form fabric;
— forming of braid, cord, strand, rope, twine, net, etc., except take‑up reels of stranding and laying
machinery;
— processing, including the pretreatment, bleaching, dyeing, printing and finishing of fibre, yarn,
fabric, braid, cord, etc., and final assembly for dispatch;
— piece‑dyeing of made‑up goods;
— finishing of warp and weft knitting, including hosiery, other than assembly of the finished product
(e.g. sewing);
— manufacturing of carpets by weaving, tufting and other processes.
This part of ISO 11111 applies to all machinery, plant and equipment used during the processes listed
above, including equipment to enable automated operation of the machines and processes in either
free‑standing or complex installations, such as pneumatic fibre transportation, but excluding other
transportation between the interfaces of the machines.
NOTE 1 The standard for a specific textile machine will normally consist of two parts: this part of ISO 11111
and the specific part of ISO 11111 relevant to that machine. However, in the case of nonwoven lines, which are
covered by ISO 11111‑3, ISO 11111‑2, ISO 11111‑6 and ISO 11111‑7 are also to be taken into account.
This part of ISO 11111 does not deal with specific requirements for pressure containment.
NOTE 2 In the EU and EFTA, specific directives for pressure vessels and electromagnetic compatibility, among
others, exist.
ISO 11111 (all parts) addresses hazards arising from the transport, assembly and commissioning of
the machinery, its adjustment, use, maintenance, decommissioning, dismantling and disposal. Manual
loading/unloading is considered to be part of the normal operation of the machinery.
ISO 11111-1:2016(E)
This part of ISO 11111 and the other parts of ISO 11111 are not applicable to machinery, plant and
related equipment used for
— manufacturing continuous filaments and man‑made fibres up to and including the formation of the
first textile package (e.g. continuous filament cheese, staple fibre bale),
— hackling and carding of flax and similar,
— manufacturing of spun-bonded and melt-blown nonwovens,
— forming and making up of garments, household and industrial textile goods, and the pressing and
die cutting of nonwoven fabric,
— laundering and dry cleaning of made‑up textile goods,
— servicing of textile machines (e.g. machines for card wire mounting, cleaning machines for
components of printing machines), and
— certain cutting devices, e.g. log‑slitting device, laser cutting, high pressure water jets, ultrasonic
device.
NOTE 3 The machines and equipment listed in Annex E are used in the textile industry but are not within the
scope of this part of ISO 11111.
This part of ISO 11111 and the other parts of ISO 11111 are not applicable to machinery intended for
use in potentially explosive atmospheres.
This part of ISO 11111 and the other parts of ISO 11111 are not applicable to machines which are
manufactured before the dates of publication of the International Standards.

EXAMPLE Setting, tuning, major cleaning, elimination of substantial process faults, maintenance such as
the removal of blockages, laps except on spinning, twisting and texturizing machines, re-sewing broken cloth,
elimination of rope loops.

complex installation
combination of textile machines and service equipment, arranged to work as one integrated production
unit, subject to overall control either from a central system or from distributed, communicating systems
3.10
automatic machinery [equipment]
machinery [equipment] for which systems are employed to govern its operation without further
intervention from the operator once the start control has been activated
Note 1 to entry: Such machines may be either free‑standing or included in a complex installation. Automatic
control can apply to the operational sequence of a machine and its integrated equipment located in a permanent
place, and equipment which is mobile, including handling devices (e.g. piecing devices, knotters).
4 List of significant hazards
Significant hazards frequently occurring on textile machinery are considered in Clause 5. Additional
significant hazards common to certain machine elements are given in Clause 6. Specific significant
hazards for individual textile machines are considered in ISO 11111-2 to ISO 11111-7.
Before using this part of ISO 11111, it is important to carry out a check to ascertain that the specific
machine has the significant hazards identified.
NOTE The significant hazards of textile machinery are always considered in conjunction with safety
requirements.
ISO 11111-1:2016(E)
5 Safety requirements and/or measures for frequently occurring hazards
5.1 General
This clause contains safety requirements and/or measures to be taken in relation to frequently
occurring significant hazards related to textile machinery.
Machinery shall comply with the safety requirements and/or protective measures of this clause,
Clause 6 and ISO 11111-2 to ISO 11111-7. In addition, the machine shall be designed according to the
principles of ISO 12100 for hazards relevant but not significant, which are not dealt with by this part of
ISO 11111.
Where the means of reducing the risk is by the arrangement of the installed machine or a safe system
of working the machine, the manufacturer shall give a detailed description of this in the instruction
handbook.
Where type B standards that are referred to offer a choice of safety requirements and/or measures
having different levels of safety and the selection is not specified in this part of ISO 11111 or in
ISO 11111‑2 to ISO 11111‑7, the manufacturer shall carry out a risk assessment to identify the
appropriate level.
5.2 Safety requirements for the different phases of “life” of a machine
The safety requirements given in Clause 5 and in Clause 6, together with the requirements set out in
ISO 11111‑2 to ISO 11111‑7, apply to the use and maintenance of the machine. For the other phases in
the life of a machine, mainly see Clause 8.
5.3 Risk reduction by design and safeguarding
5.3.1 Inherently safe design measures
A design concept for the machine and/or its mechanisms which does not inherently create a hazard
shall, as far as possible, be adopted.
EXAMPLE The use of pneumatic trunking instead of open lattice conveyors, and the use of pneumatic
uncurling devices instead of mechanical uncurling rollers.
For textile machinery, the technical guidelines on inherently safe design in accordance with
ISO 12100:2010, 6.2.2, shall apply.
5.3.2 Consideration of geometrical factors and physical aspects
For risk reduction of
