本欧洲标准适用于采石场中使用的金刚石线锯以及在采石场或已经准备好提取的块体中的大量岩石中切割大理石，花岗岩和其他石头的加工厂。在运行过程中，机器可以是固定的或在轨道上运行。 范围内的金刚石线锯具有电动主电机。本标准涉及在一个主轴和几个轴上工作的机器。此外，该标准不涉及由要切割的石块的不规则结构引起的问题。 金刚石线锯旨在与金属切割线一起使用，这种金属切割线在本标准中也被称为工具。 对于可运输机器，本标准仅适用于使用涂覆线工具的机器。 本标准涉及与金刚石线锯相关的所有重大危险，危险情况和事件，按照预期使用和在制造商合理预见的误用条件下使用（见第4条）。本欧洲标准涉及运输，调试，使用和维护过程中的危险。 本标准不会将噪音视为重大危险。 本欧洲标准不涉及: - 在极端环境条件下操作（超出限定范围）

This European Standard applies to diamond wire saws being used in quarries as well as in processing plants for cutting marble, granite and other stones out of a mass of rocks in a quarry or of blocks having been al-ready extracted. The machines can be either stationary or travelling on rails during operation. Diamond wire saws in the scope have an electric main motor. This standard deals with machines working in one main axis as well as in several axes. Furthermore, this standard does not deal with problems caused by an irregular structure of the stones to be cut. Diamond wire saws are intended to be used with diamond cutting wires also referred to as tools in this stan-dard. For transportable machines, this standard deals only with machines using coated wire tools. This standard deals with all significant hazards, hazardous situations and events relevant to diamond wire saws, when they are used as intended and under conditions of misuse which are reasonably foreseeable by the manufacturer (see Clause 4). This European Standard deals with the hazards during transport, commissioning, use and maintenance. This standard does not deal with noise as a significant hazard. This European Standard does not deal with: - operation under extreme ambient conditions (outside the limits defined in EN 60204-1); - upstream and downstream conveying elements for transporting the work-pieces. This document is not applicable to machines which are manufactured before the date of its publication as EN.
