e) demountable power feed unit;
f) post-formed edge pre-cutting unit;
g) power operated sliding table;
h) workpiece clamping.
NOTE 1 For the definition of stationary and displaceable machine, see 3.10 and 3.11.
NOTE 2 Dimension saws are used for ripping, cross cutting, dimensioning and grooving.
The requirements of this document apply also to machines designed for grooving with a width not exceeding 20 mm in one pass by using a milling tool.
This document is not applicable to dimension saws which are manufactured before the date of its publication as a European Standard.
