ANSI B11.18 2006 Safety Requirements for Machines and Machinery Systems for Processing or Slitting or Non-Coiled Metal Strip, Sheet or Plate

This standard applies to machines, and groups of machines arranged in production systems, for processing strip, sheet, or plate metal from a coiled or non-coiled configuration through machines that size or otherwise convert the metal into desired configurations. The terms "strip, sheet or plate" are used interchangeably without dimensional implications. Typical machinery systems include: cut-to-length lines; press feed lines; and slitting lines.

Specifically excluded from this standard are machinery and devices for the sole purpose of performing thermal, coating, chemical, and electrolytic processes and any emissions therefrom are commonly associated with metal processing systems. This standard does not provide safety requirements for these specific processes or devices.
