Machine tools — Safety — Stationary grinding machines

ISO 16089:2015 specifies the requirements and/or measures to eliminate the hazards or reduce the risks in the following groups of stationary grinding machines which are designed primarily to shape metal by grinding:

Group 1: Manually controlled grinding machines without power operated axes and without numerical control.

Group 2: Manually controlled grinding machines with power operated axes and limited numerically controlled capability, if applicable.

Group 3: Numerically controlled grinding machines.

NOTE 1 For detailed information on the groups of grinding machines, see the definitions in 3.1 and 3.4.

NOTE 2 Requirements in this International Standard are, in general, applicable to all groups of grinding machines. If requirements are applicable to some special group(s) of grinding machines only, then the special group(s) of grinding machine(s) is/are specified.

This International Standard covers the significant hazards listed in Clause 4 and applies to ancillary devices (e.g. for workpieces, tools, and workpiece holding devices, handling devices), which are integral to the machine.

This International Standard also applies to machines which are integrated into an automatic
