We understand your challenge

WE UNDERSTAND YOUR CHALLENGE

No matter what role you're in, we understand your challenges and know what you need:

Always responsible for the creation and proof of the CE marking, except in exceptional cases!

If you manufacture or plan to manufacture machinery, we advise you to familiarize yourself with the applicable regulations beforehand. Consider the framework provided by standards, especially the Machinery Directive, during the development phase to avoid the extra effort of adaptation for compliance. As a manufacturer, you can ensure a streamlined and efficient conformity assessment process by using only CE-marked components in your machinery. As a distributor, bear in mind that a correct user manual in the respective language of the country is a crucial part of product conformity. While a manufacturer doesn't necessarily have to be the distributor, for competitive reasons, it's always advisable for manufacturers to offer only machinery that have obtained CE marking.

The experts at EasyCE are pleased to assist you in creating the necessary documentation for conformity assessment, which includes product analysis, risk assessment, the nameplate, and the final declaration of conformity. Additionally, we review your user manual and its contents for compliance or create a user manual tailored to your machine that meets conformity standards.

The responsibility for creating the CE marking lies with you as a machine operator in some cases. Operators always have the obligation to provide CE proof!

As a machine operator, you might be responsible for the CE marking. Particularly, when combining individual elements or machinery, there is an obligation for you, as the operator, to affix the CE marking to the resulting assembly. Even if operators manufacture products for their own use, they are still responsible for the CE marking because operators must ensure that their employees work with compliant and safe products.

The experts at EasyCE are available to assist you with any inquiries regarding conformity. If you have doubts about the CE conformity of a machine you have acquired or are planning to acquire, EasyCE is happy to review the CE documentation for you.

In most cases, the responsibility for providing evidence of the CE marking for machinery lies with the exporter.

If you are exporting machinery to a country within the European Economic Area, and the machine is transferred to your customer only after import, the responsibility for the CE marking lies with you. Be prepared to demonstrate product compliance with all applicable regulations to customs and other supervisory authorities. If you are exporting a machine to the United Kingdom, we are happy to assist you with the mandatory UKCA conformity.

Regarding CE and UKCA, we are happy to assist you in creating or reviewing the documentation for conformity assessment, which includes product analysis, risk assessment, the nameplate, and the final declaration of conformity. We also review your user manual and its contents for conformity.

"The responsibility for providing evidence of the CE marking lies with the importer in most cases.

If you import machinery from a non-EU country into a European Economic Area country, you are responsible for ensuring that the machinery bear a CE marking and comply with all applicable directives and standards. You must be able to demonstrate this to customs and other regulatory authorities; otherwise, the import may be halted at your expense. Therefore, before importing, it's crucial to obtain from the manufacturer all necessary documentation regarding all product components and evidence of correct conformity assessment. Keep in mind that a correct user manual in the respective language of the country is also part of product conformity.

The experts at EasyCE are ready to assist you with any inquiries regarding the compilation of documentation for conformity assessment, which includes product analysis, risk assessment, the nameplate, and the final declaration of conformity. We also review your user manual and its contents for conformity.

Frequently asked questions

FAQ

Which products are considered as machinery and must bear a CE marking according to the 2006/42/EG?

All products that have moving parts not powered by human or animal force. Whether the machine is complete or incomplete, conformity assessment and CE marking are mandatory. This includes interchangeable equipment, safety components, lifting accessories, chains, ropes, and straps, as well as detachable drive shafts.

Which additional directives must be considered for the CE marking of machinery?

The directives that need to be considered in the conformity assessment depend on the nature of the machinery. However, in our experience for the CE marking of machinery, the RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU is often considered in addition., the ATEX-RL 2014/32/EU, the EMV-RL 2014/30/EU and the Low Voltage Directive 2014/35/EU

Is the conformity assessment only required for manufacturers or also for machine operators?

The manufacturer of a machine is obliged to affix the CE marking and therefore conduct a conformity assessment if the machines are intended to be placed on the market in the EEA.. In addition to the CE marking, the manufacturer must provide a nameplate, a declaration of conformity, and an operating manual. Even if machines are manufactured solely for their own use, an operator must carry out the conformity assessment and CE marking.

What happens if a machine is modified or altered?

When an operator integrates, connects, or otherwise modifies an already CE-marked machine into existing systems, it often needs to be assumed that a significant modification has occurred, requiring a reassessment of conformity. This is especially true if more powerful drives, new controls, or safety devices are installed. The assessment of whether a modification is 'significant' needs to consider safety-related aspects and is often quite challenging. EasyCE is happy to assist you with this assessment.

How does the Machinery Directive differ from the Low Voltage Directive?

The Low Voltage Directive lists six groups of machinery considered solely under the Low Voltage Directive as electrical and electronic products. These include electrical or electronic products intended for household use, audio and video equipment, information technology equipment, ordinary office machinery, low voltage equipment and control gear, and electric motors.

Is the risk assessment required to be conducted according to ISO 12100, EN ISO 13849-1, EN 62061?

The risk assessment is a central component of the conformity assessment procedure required by the Machinery Directive. The standards ISO 12100, EN ISO 13849-1 and EN 62061 are the central standards in the risk assessment.

Who is responsible for CE marking, conformity assessment, risk assessment? How should the CE marking be affixed? ... etc.
