INDICATION MACHINERY DIRECTIVE EC:2006/43/EC.
On 17 May 2006 the European Commission issued the latest Machinery Directive (2006/42/EC), which compared with the existing boundaries of machinery Directive 98/37/EC, the new directive to the extent applicable Application, and Other Directives, market surveillance have a number of new and significantly changed requirements for safety, spare parts, conformity assessment procedures, and mechanical health and safety requirements.
1 EC:2006/43/EC What is EC?:.
This is a clear regulation for machinery and equipment products that are circulated in Europe.
The European Parliament and the European Council on 17 May 2006 officially adopted the latest version of the Machinery Directive (2006/42/EC), the European Union under the Act is a new method (Newapproach) deals with the development of health, safety, basic laws.
Compared to the existing Directive machinery and equipment 98/37/EC, this new directive in scope, boundaries and other Directives, temporary governor market, insecurity factor, rating programs assess the conformity and basic health and safety requirements of colleagues when there have been some new and changed requirements much more clearly.
In the face of new technical barriers, relevant departments and the majority of companies should research first and respond positively to practical applications and technologies. The new decree is in writing and 12 annexes, the contents of which include: mechanical application scope, term and concept definitions, market supervision, market and delivery, qualified assumptions and standards harmonization, dealing with potentially dangerous instrument measures, controversial treatment program harmonization standards, protection provisions, mechanical compliance program evaluation, mechanical sales Partially completed procedure, certification body, CE mark, direction 95/16 / EC of the 29 terms and amendments are described.
Accessories included: For mechanical design and basic health and safety requirements of production, mechanical declaration of conformity is required, CE marking, carrying out conformity assessment of the date type of machinery and equipment recorded, safety components detailed list, mechanical semi-component of the equipment mechanical assembly complete requirements, requirements technical documentation, consideration of conformity internal mechanical manufacturing process assessment, EC test type, perfect quality assurance procedure king, members should be appointed certification body to review the minimum standards.
Clause the entire text of the Law and more to be refined in all respects, while the original 98/37/EC directive gives a summary of the contents of the classification together forming a single clause. As an independent proposal, the entire file decrees a clearer framework to help manufacturers, certification bodies, Members of States and other stakeholders understand and use the content of the law.
2 Legislative basis for the new version of the Machinery Directive:
Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC is based on one of the new EU treaties "(EcTreatv) Article 95 (formerly 100 Treaties) to develop a series of measures, the main purpose of Article 95 of the Agreement. EU convention for the performance of mechanically safe single goods and services, given the health requirements of the European market New Machinery was developed only taking into account recommendations from the Commission's comments Europe and of the European Economic and Social Commission the revision of the machine objectives is just to come up with more definition of the concept, to clarify the relevant issues and to make the application more secure. harmonization of the Directive to ensure the free movement of goods within the EU, while at the same time ensuring a relatively high standard in health, safety and consumer protection.
The earliest mechanical safety directive was 89/392/EEC, and 9l/368/EEC added the original mobile machinery and lifting equipment for stowage. 93/44/EEC Additional requirements for manned lifts are included in the lift instructions. The previous Law 98/37/EC increased the CE marking and declaration of conformity regulations, as well as the mandatory requirements. New Directive 2006/42/EC has entered the life stage of the limit to be officially implemented on December 29, 2009, in which hand-held devices and fixed ammo requirements to promote machinery other effects postponed to July 29, 2011 to commence Implementation.
3 Scope and Definition of the Machine Safety Instructions:
Unlike Directive 98/37/EC, the new directive excludes not only Yizhai Machinery and Equipment, but also. Clear specifications are also given for the appropriate mechanical products. The scope of the new directives will be expanded. Winches, munitions and other impactors on structures will no longer be excluded. At the same time, the scope of the new directive clearly excludes motives and reduces management uncertainty for manufacturers.
Distinguishing the new guidelines from low voltage (LowVoltage) is no longer in line with the "main hazard" guideline (MainRisk), where six electrical and electronic products are listed under Low Voltage Directive covered by Low Voltage Directive electrical risks including other mechanical, Conformity assessment procedures and market placement are controlled by mechanical instructions.
The boundary between the new directive and the Lifts Directive has also been clarified. Lifts with lifting speeds not higher than 0.15 m/s are mentioned in the Machine Safety Instructions. Applicable products of the directive:

(Z) Refers to the harmonized standard pin authorized by the European Commission, the European Commission for Standards (CEN), the European Commission for Electrical Engineering Standards (CENELEC) and the European Institute of Telecommunications Standards. (ETSI) in accordance with the European Parliament and the Council on 22 June 1998. Directive 98/34/EC on the provision of information programs in the field of technical standards and information on regulations on Social services require non-binding technical standards to be approved in accordance with guiding principles.
The new definition of the concepts in the directive helps to explain the article clearly. For example, "security components", directive 98/37/EC originally specified its generic definition, which, due to the lack of a clear definition, brought many problems in the application of explanatory terms.
The new directive provides not only a clear definition, but also a complete list of examples. As technology advances, the Machinery Council reserves the right to amend this list to cover new products.
4 Market monitoring and conformity assessment:
The new guidelines improve the terms and conditions of the market surveillance fire, as well as the provisions of the certification body notice of compliance.
The new directive stipulates that EU member states have an obligation to monitor the performance of certification bodies. If it is found that they are not fulfilling their obligations, Member States have the right to revoke and suspend the qualifications of the agency. At the same time, clearer regulations on the responsibilities of member countries in the implementation of market supervision. Their obligations include mutual cooperation and confidentiality and transparency.
The conformity assessment program for machines is based on the original EC model, and the assessment of compliance with internal audit and perfect quality assurance procedures for the production of the machines is added.
There are two machine qualification requirements to complete semi-finished machinery: (1) assembling the mechanical equipment, Lu Ming, and (2) mounting the assembly instructions.
From above, the new directive has been made explicit to the manufacturer's in-house measures to assess the requirements, while the new directive was initially entered into the quality assurance system to evaluate companies, these issues are important to note that the majority of manufacturers.
5 Amendment to Directive 95/16/EC.
