BS 4361-3 focuses on woodworking machines. The main aim of the BS 4361 series is to provide manufacturers with best industry practices for the verification of the accuracy of the machine.
BS 4361-3 is the third part of the BS 4361 series of standards that specifies requirements for working level heights for single-blade circular sawing machines, surface planing machines with cutterblocks, table band sawing machines, spindle moulding machines and combined machines, working widths for surface planing machines and the relation between working depth capacities and working widths for thicknessing machines and moulding machines.
BS 4361-3 on machine sizes and capacities for woodworking machines is useful for:
A Woodworking machine is a machine that is intended to process wood. These machines are usually powered by electric motors and are used extensively in woodworking.
BS 4361-3 provides working level heights and relation of working depth capacities and working widths. The purpose of BS 4361-3 is to provide guidance to designers in the selection of parameters for future designs, bearing in mind the advantages of such rationalizations to ensure standard loading heights for link-line and similar grouping of machines.
