This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by October 2001, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by October 2001. This European Standard has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of EC Directive(s). This standard has been prepared to provide one means of conforming with the essential requirements of the Machinery Directive and associated EFTA regulations. @ Annexes A, B and ZA are informative. This European Standard also contains a Bibliography. For relationship with EC Directive(s), see informative Annex ZA, which is an integral part of this standard. According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom. Copyright by the British Standards Institution Wed Apr 21 08:2351 2004 Page 4 EN 12717:2001 0 Introduction @ This European standard is a type C standard as stated in EN 292-1. 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. Drilling machines present a wide range of hazards, not least from their wide application as rotating tool, ‘stationary’ workpiece machine tools, for general purpose cutting of cold metal work material. Protection of operators and other persons from contact with moving cutting tools, especially when being rapidly rotated in the spindle or from contact with fast-moving workpieces, is of great importance. When power-operated mechanisms are provided for workpiece transfer, they can also create hazardous situations during loading/unloading and workpiece alignment or clamping. On automatic drilling machines, total enclosure of the work zone using guards during cutting is the preferred method of safeguarding. Where this is not practicable (e.g. due to size of the workpiece, its geometry, or its special characteristics), operators may be safeguarded by other means (e.g. perimeter fencing, protective devices at the operating position). Operators may also benefit from pendant controls, which enable them to move about the machine. The significant hazards covered by this standard are those listed in clause 4. The safety requirements and/or protective measures to prevent or minimize those hazards identified in table 1 and procedures for verification of these requirements or measures are found in clause 5. The figures in annex A are examples only and are not intended to illustrate the only interpretation of the text, Copyright by the British Standards Institution ed Apr 21-0928 2008 Page 5 EN 12717:2001 @ 1 scope 1.1 This standard specifies the technical safety requirements and measures to be adopted by persons undertaking the design, construction and supply (including installation and dismantling, with arrangements for transport and maintenance) of stationary drilling machines (see 3.1). This standard covers both manual and automatic drilling machines. These include but are not limited to: — pedestal drilling machines (see figure A.1); ~ radial arm drilling machines (see figure A.2); = coordinate table driling machines (see figure A.3); — horizontal spindle drilling machines (see figure A.4); = multi-spindle drilling machines (see figure A.5) — turret type drilling machines with manual control of turret index. e 4.2 This standard takes account of intended use including reasonably foreseeable misuse, maintenance, cleaning, and setting operations. It presumes access to the machine from all directions. It describes means to reduce risks to operators and other exposed persons. 4.3 This standard also applies to workpiece transfer devices when they form an integral part of the machine, F 1.4 This standard deals with significant hazards relevant to drilling machines when they are used as intended and under the conditions foreseen by the manufacturer (see clause 4). 4.5 Hazards arising from other metal working processes (e.g. milling, grinding, tuming, forming, EDM, laser processing) are covered by other standards (see Bibliography). 4.6 Automatic drilling machines with automatic tool changing capabilities are not covered by this standard (see prEN 12417:1996). @ 1.7 This standard is not applicable to drilling machines, which were manufactured before the date of publication by CEN of this standard. 2. Normative references This European Standard incorporates, by dated or undated reference, provisions from other publications. These normative references are cited at the appropriate places in the text and the publications are listed hereafter. For dated references, subsequent amendments to or revisions of any of these publications apply to this European Standard only when incorporated in it by amendment or revision.

The safety requirements and/or measures and information for use contained in clauses 5 and 7 are based on the risk assessment and deal with the identified hazards by either eliminating them or reducing the effects of the risks they generate, 4.2 The risk assessment assumes foreseeable access from all directions, as well as unexpected start-up. Risks to both the operators and other persons who can have access to the hazard zones are identified, taking into account hazards which can occur under various conditions (e.g. commissioning, set-up, production, maintenance, repair, decommissioning) during the life of the machine. The assessment includes an analysis of the effect of failure in the control system. 4.3 In addition, the user of this standard (i.e. the designer, manufacturer, supplier) shall @y validate that the risk assessment is complete for the machine under consideration with particular attention to: Copyright ty The Frish SlandardsTnsitution ed pr 21 092857 2004 Page 9 EN 12717:2001 @ - tho intended use of the machine including maintenance, setting and cleaning, and its reasonably foreseeable misu: — the identification of the significant hazards associated with the machine.

Whilst there is a correlation between the emission and exposure levels, this cannot be used reliably to determine whether or not further precautions are required. Factors that influence the actual level of exposure of the workforce include characteristics of the work room, the other sources of noise, etc. i.e. the number of machines and other adjacent processes. Also the permissible exposure level can vary from country to country, This information, however, will enable the user of the machine to make a better evaluation of the hazard and risk." 7.4 Marking Each machine shall be marked in a distinct and permanent manner with: ‘a) manufacturer's name, address, model number and reference number, year of @ —_ramufacture: b) mass of machine; ©) supply data for electrical and where applicable hydraulic, and pneumatic systems (e.g. minimum pneumatic pressure); ¢) lifting points for transportation and installation purposes where applicable; e) speed range where applicable.

Alternatively, where the facilities exist and the measuring method applies to the machine type, emission sound power levels may also be measured according to a method with higher precision (Le. EN ISO 3744:1995) without the preceding modifications. For determination of emission sound power levels by the sound intensity method, use EN ISO 9614-1: 1995 (subject to agreement between the supplier and the purchaser).
