Foreword
IS0 (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide
federation of national standards bodies (IS0 member bodies). The work
of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through IS0
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. IS0
collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnicai Commission
(I EC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are
circuiated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International
Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting
a vote.
International Standard IS0 11111 was prepared by Technical Committee
ISO/TC 72, Textile machinery and allied machinery and accessories.
Annexes A, B and C form an integral part of this international Standard.
Annex D is for information only.

0 IS0
IS0 11111:1995(E)
This International Standard was prepared simultaneously by lSO/TC 72 and
CEN/TC 214 and adopted under the Vienna Agreement in order to obtain
identical standards on safety requirements for textile machinery.
This International Standard deals with the hazards generated by machines
used in the textile industry. The great number and variety of such ma-
chines render impractical the preparation of individual standards.
Clause 5 contains a summary of frequently occurring safety requirements
and/or measures for textile machines which apply whenever referred to in
later clauses.
Clause 6 describes significant hazards and corresponding safety require-
ments and/or measures for certain prevalent component items (e.g. rol-
lers).
Clauses 7 to 12 contain significant hazards and corresponding safety re-
quirements and/or measures for all types of textile machines. As far as
possible these are treated by way of references to clauses 5 and 6 and
other cross-references, thus reducing considerably the volume of this In-
ternational Standard by avoiding many repetitions.
The examples given in clauses 6 to 12 are proven solutions, representing
the state of the art with respect to safety at the time of standard prep-
aration. To enable further technical progress, other solutions are also al-
lowed, provided they attain at least the same safety level.

Safety requirements for textile machinery
1 Scope
This International Standard is intended for use by any person concerned with the safety of textile machinery, for
example, textile machinery designers, manufacturers, users, systems integrators, safety experts.
1.1 This International Standard is applicable to all machinery plant and related equipment intended to be used in
the textile industry for the following:
- the 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);
- the winding, doubling, twisting, texturing, etc. of yarns and the processing of yarns preparatory to weaving and
knitting;
- the weaving, knitting, lace-making and similar utilization of yarn, etc., to form fabric;
- the formation of braid, cord, strand, rope, twine, net, etc., except take-up reels of stranding and laying ma-
chinery;
- processes including the preparation, bleaching, dyeing, printing and finishing of fibre, yarn, fabric, braid, cord,
etc., and final assembly for despatch;
- the piece dyeing of made-up goods;
- finishing of warp and weft knitting, including hosiery, other than assembly of the finished product (e.g. sewing);
- carpet manufacture, by weaving, tufting and other processes.
This International Standard is not applicable to machinery, plant and related equipment used for:
1.2
- the manufacture of continuous filament man-made fibres up to and including the formation of the first textile
package (e.g. continuous filament cheese, staple fibre bale);
- the formation and making up of garments, household and industrial textile goods, and the die punching and
pressing of nonwoven fabric;
- the laundering and drycleaning of made-up textil e goods;
(e.g. cardwire servicing);
- machines used for servicing of textile machines
- certain cutting devices in 6.11.

1.3 This International Standard applies to the generality of textile machinery, particularly all the machinery plant
and equipment which is used during the processes listed in 1 .I, and including equipment to enable automated
operation of the machines and processes in either free-standing or complex installations, but excluding transpor-
tation between the interfaces of the machines.
1.4 This International Standard does not give specific technical advice about:
the phases of “life” of the machine other than use;
electric shock;
fluid power systems and components;
noise;
laser;
ionizing radiation;
.
fire
I
gas;
explosion;
ergonomics;
isolation of energy sources;
intervention during normal operation;
pressure-sensitive safety devices;
and it does not cover the hazards and technical measures dealing with the containment of pressure in 6.7.2,
12.1 .lO, 12.1 .I 1, 12.2.2, 12.2.6, 12.2.8, 12.2.9, 12.2.10 and 12.2.1 I, for high temperature dyeing machines.
1.5 This International Standard applies primarily to machines which are manufactured after the date of publi-
cation of this International Standard.
1.6 The guidance contained in this International Standard is based on the presumption that the designer has
completed a risk analysis of the machine under consideration. This will enable him to identify and fulfil the signif-
icant requirements for his machine as stipulated by this International Standard.
In that very limited number of applications where the requirements seem excessive, deviation from those re-
quirements should be fully justified by detailed risk assessment, comparison with this International Standard and
design evaluation. All this information should be recorded in the technical construction file and kept available for
external assessment.
2 Normative references
The following standards contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this In-
ternational Standard. At the time of publication, the editions indicated were valid. All standards are subject to re-
vision, and parties to agreements based on this International Standard are encouraged to investigate the possibility
of applying the most recent editions of the standards indicated below0 Members of IEC and lS0 maintain registers
of currently valid International Standards.
