NF EN ISO 23582-1, E63-618-1 (04/2023)

This document specifies essential safety requirements for the design, construction and integration of magnetic clamping systems (MCS) for plastics and rubber machines (e.g. injection molding machines, molding machines by compression) and provides operating limits and information for their safe use. This document addresses the basic hazards, hazardous situations or hazardous events listed in Annex A, when an MCS is used using magnetic force to attach a mold to the platen of a machine in which it is integrated , and provides requirements to eliminate or adequately reduce the risks associated with these hazards taking into account conditions of misuse reasonably foreseeable by the manufacturer. This document also specifies the requirements for the MCS when it is integrated into a machine. This document does not specifically address hazards associated with production or other processes (for example, horizontal or vertical injection molding processes). Other standards may apply to these process-related hazards. This document does not cover hydraulic, pneumatic or mechanical clamping systems. This document does not apply to MCS manufactured before its publication date.
