Helping you to keep up to date with legislation & technology
> The European Machinery Directive, 2006/42/EC: sets out essential health and safety requirements (EHSRs), routes to CE-marking, machine categories etc
> Regulations: PUWER (Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regs) affecting end users, and the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regs affecting those building and placing machines on the market in the UK
> European Standards harmonised to the Machinery Directive such as
> EN ISO 12100 for risk assessment / reduction
> EN ISO 13849-1 / EN 62061 for SRP/CS and SRECS (safety controls)
> EN ISO 13855 & EN ISO 13857 (positioning safeguards & safe distances)
> Various B standards covering safeguarding technology/methodology
> Various machine-specific C-standards (e.g. EN 415 packaging machines)
It takes a great deal of experience and insight to strike a balance between safety compliance, ergonomics, productivity, resistance to manipulation and cost.
