ÖNORM EN 15164

This standard applies to chain or belt slotting machines, to be used in open or underground quarries. Chain or belt slotting machines are used for cutting marble, granite and other stones loose or at the face. This Standard does not apply to multi-axis machines and does not cover the difficulties arising from the geomorphology of the stone to be cut. This standard deals with all significant hazards, hazardous situations and events relevant to chain and belt slotting machines, when they are used as intended and under conditions of misuse which are reasonably foreseeable by the manufacturer.
