General Information
Frequently Asked Questions
CEN/TC 322/WG 5 is a Working Group within the European Committee for Standardization (CEN). It is named "Forging and extruding" and is responsible for: Plant and equipment for extrusion presses (WI 015), hydraulically powered hot forging presses (WI 016) and drop hammers (WI 017). This committee has published 6 standards.
CEN/TC 322/WG 5 develops CEN standards. The scope of work includes: Plant and equipment for extrusion presses (WI 015), hydraulically powered hot forging presses (WI 016) and drop hammers (WI 017). Currently, there are 6 published standards from this working group.
The European Committee for Standardization (CEN) is a public standards organization that brings together the national standardization bodies of 34 European countries. CEN provides a platform for developing European Standards (ENs) and other technical documents in relation to various products, materials, services, and processes, supporting the European Single Market.
A Working Group in CEN is a specialized group responsible for developing standards or technical work within a defined scope. These bodies bring together international experts to create consensus-based standards that support global trade, safety, and interoperability.
This European Standard applies to:
- hydraulically powered open die forging presses for hot working;
- handling and cooling equipment connected with the control system of the forging line, e. g., manipulators, rotating type handling devices, die shifting devices, table devices and tool changing devices;
- handling equipment designed specifically to be used within the forging line, e. g., material manipulation devices, turnover or handling devices attached to fork lift trucks or cranes etc.
It specifies the health and safety requirements at all stages in the life of the equipment, its design, ordering, construction, use and disposal.
This European Standard specifies requirements to be met by the manufacturer to ensure the health and safety of persons during construction, transport, commissioning, operation, maintenance and de-commissioning, as well as in the event of foreseeable faults as malfunctions which may occur in the equipment.
This European Standard deals with all significant hazards, hazardous situations and events relevant to hydraulically powered hot forging presses when they are used as intended and under conditions foreseeable by the manufacturer (see Clause 4).
This European Standard does not cover:
- hydraulically controlled closed die forging presses for hot working;
- mechanically powered hot forging presses;
- mobile manipulators as defined in 3.4.2;
- standard transport and lifting equipment modified for use with material manipulation devices, turnover and handling devices such as for fork lift trucks and cranes.
This European Standard is not applicable to machinery which was manufactured before the date of publication of this standard by CEN.

This European Standard applies to:
- extrusion presses from the exit side of the heater through associated handling, cooling and quenching equipment including, e.g. the puller, the hot saw, the run-out table, the stretcher, the cold saw, cold saw table and/or coiler when incorporated into the equipment, to a point where the extruded product is passed to associated finishing equipment.
It specifies the health and safety requirements at all stages in the life of the equipment, its design, ordering, construction, use and disposal.
This European Standard specifies requirements to be met by the manufacturer to ensure the health and safety of persons during construction, transport, commissioning, operation, maintenance and de-commissioning, as well as in the event of foreseeable faults as malfunctions which may occur in the equipment.
This European Standard deals with all significant hazards, hazardous situations and events relevant to extrusion presses when they are used as intended and under conditions which are reasonably foreseeable by the manufacturer (see Clause 4).
This European Standard is not applicable to extrusion presses which are manufactured before the date of its publication as EN.
