The machine is equipped with a control device on the
operator control panel that allows the general stop in
safety conditions. The panel is equipped with a control
device that allows to stop all the functions of the
machine, according to existing hazards, so that the
machine can be brought into safety conditions. The stop
control takes priority over the start controls. Once the
machine and its dangerous functions have been stopped,
the supply to the actuators is cut off.

Protection against

The machine is equipped with an emergency stop
device that avoid the development of immediate
dangerous situations or dangerous situations already
in development. This device is designed in
conformance with EN 13850:2008 “Safety of
machinery - Emergency stop - Principles for design
”.
The devices are:
easily identifiable, clearly visible and quickly
accessible,
They stop the process as fast as possible,
without creating additional risks
.
After a stop command, when you quit activating the
stop device, the command is maintained by a block in
the emergency device, up to its reset. It is not
possible to block the device without it generating a
stop command. A specific manoeuvre allows the
reset of the device, but it does not restart the
machine, it just authorises its recommissioning. At
this stage it is necessary to restore the emergencies
by pushing the EMERGENCY RECOVERY button on
the operator panel. Now it is possible to restart the
operating cycle.
The emergency stop function is always available and
operational regardless of the operating mode activated.
The emergency stop devices offer a back-up solution to
other protective measures and cannot substitute them.
