Abstract
Sets out technical and safety requirements for power presses intended to work cold metal or material partly of cold metal. Does not apply to brake presses, guillotines, attaching fasteners, straightening, turret punch pressing, extruding working hot metal, metal powder compaction or printing presses.
Scope
This Standard specifies technical safety requirements and measures for hydraulic presses that are intended to work cold metal or material partly of cold metal. In operations involving hot working and the use of tongs during the machine cycle, the principles given in AS 4024.1 should be considered, but may not be capable of being fully applied. This Standard should be read in conjunction with AS 4024.1 (series).
This Standard also covers presses whose primary intended use is to work cold metal, but are also used in a similar way to work other sheet materials (e.g. cardboard, plastic, rubber or leather), and metal powder.
The requirements in this Standard take account of the intended use of the power press. This Standard presumes access to the press from all directions, deals with the hazards (described in Section 2) and specifies safety measures for both the operator and other exposed persons.
The Standard also applies to ancillary devices that are integral to the press.
For the safeguarding of integrated manufacturing systems using presses, see also ISO 11161.
This Standard does not cover machines whose principal designed purpose is -
(a) sheet metal or paper cutting by guillotine (see AS 1893);
(b) attaching a fastener, e.g. riveting, stapling or stitching;
(c) bending or folding by brake presses;
(d) straightening;
(e) turret punch pressing;
(f) extruding;
(g) drop forging, hot forging or drop stamping;
(h) compaction of metal powder;
(i) single purpose punching machines designed exclusively for profiles, e.g. for the construction industry; or
(j) printing presses.
