The essential requirements of the machinery directive addressed here set down safety concepts for plants manufacturing precast elements. The following foundational safety measures can be derived from these: spatial safeguards for hazardous zones (area protection), local safeguards for hazardous zones (enclosures, occlusions etc.), location-dependent safety devices (controlled person location) plus safety control units particularly for interlinked plants. This article will provide information on all the above-named protective measures. In addition, processes in manufacturing will be documented on which these protective measures have a bearing.
