Machinery Safety

Risk Assessments, Technical Dossiers og CE Marking.

We can see whether a purchased or produced machine lives up to the requirements of the Machinery Directive by a systematic examination. If you need us to CE mark your machines or machine plants, we can help.

We have trained CMSE® - Certified Machinery Safety Experts (approved by TÜV NORD CERT).

As well as risk assessments, we draw up technical dossiers and give suggestions on safety solutions.

Even during the project phase, we can give you risk assessment advice when purchasing or manufacturing a machine plant. At this stage, it is essential to clarify who is responsible for the machine living up to the requirements of the directive. Take note that when combining a new machine within an existing CE marked plant, you still need to get it CE marked.

For more advice regarding machinery safety and CE marking, contact us.

 

All machines used within EU must be CE marked according to the Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC
