This document applies to:
  • Pre-press machinery (machinery and devices for the production of master copies and printing forms):
    • exposure equipment for the production of films and printing forms;
    • equipment for developing films and printing forms;
    • washing machines for printing forms;
    • machines for bending printing forms;
    • Punching machines for film and printing forms;
    • cutting machines for film and printing forms;
    • machines for the production of gravure printing forms;
    • scanners.
  • Printing and varnishing machines:
    • proofing presses;
    • sheet-fed printing presses and varnishing machines including digital printing presses;
    • web-fed rotary presses and varnishing machines including digital printing presses;
    • screen printing presses.
  • Auxiliary devices:
    • cylinder and roller washing devices;
    • continuous flow drying devices;
    • powder spraying devices;
    • auxiliary devices on inking and damping units;
    • automatic plate clamping devices;
    • washing equipment for printing forms, rollers and scrapers;
    • pile turners;
    • measuring and control devices.
This document shall be used together with EN 1010‑1:2004+A1. Both parts together identify all significant hazards relevant to printing and varnishing machines including pre-press machinery and auxiliary devices, when they are used as intended and under the conditions foreseen by the manufacturer (see Clause 4). The specific requirements specified in prEN 1010-2 take precedence over respective requirements in this standard.
This document does not deal with risks generated by noise emitted from the machines. These issues are fundamentally covered in EN 1010‑1:2004+A1
This document does not apply to high-pressure cleaning devices and screen printing presses for textile substrates.
This document is not applicable to printing and varnishing machines including pre-press machinery which are manufactured before the date of publication of this document by CEN.
