This document covers the different types of weaving and knitting machines defined in ISO 5247 (all parts)[2] and ISO 7839[3], respectively.
It is applicable to:
       full-width weaving machines with weft insertion by:
       shuttles;
       rigid, telescopic or flexible rapiers;
       projectiles;
       hydraulic (waterjet) or by pneumatic (airjet) nozzle;
       narrow fabric weaving machines with weft insertion by shuttles or needles;
       jacquard machines;
       knitting machinery including:
       circular knitting;
       flat bed knitting;
       warp knitting;
       raschel;
       cotton (flat weft weaving);
       other fabric manufacturing machines e.g.:
       multi-phase weaving machines;
       circular weaving machines;
       stitch bonding machines.
NOTE       Because of the high requirements on measurement conditions, grade 1 methods are normally not feasible for textile machinery.

ISO 23771:2015 provides technical information on the design of textile machinery with reduced noise emissions. Textile machines with a significant noise hazard are defined in ISO 11111 (all parts).
ISO 23771:2015 supports the technical designer with the development of low-noise textile machinery. For this purpose, the significant sources of noise of the individual types of textile machines and suitable noise control measures are described.

Frequently Asked Questions

CEN/TC 214/WG 4 is a Working Group within the European Committee for Standardization (CEN). It is named "Measurement and reduction of noise" and is responsible for: Standardization of measurement and reduction of noise of textile machinery in co-operation with ISO under the Vienna agreement. This committee has published 23 standards.

CEN/TC 214/WG 4 develops CEN standards. The scope of work includes: Standardization of measurement and reduction of noise of textile machinery in co-operation with ISO under the Vienna agreement. Currently, there are 23 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.
