One-day Machinery Directive seminars
May 1st 2010 SICK has developed two one-day
seminars to give managers,
engineers, OEMs and end users the
tools needed to
comply with the
Machinery Directive
2006/42/EC, which
came into effect on
in December 2009.
In addition to
new equipment, any
new process or
system, such as a
production line, is
effectively classed as
a new machine, even when using
existing machinery, and the entire
assembly must, as a whole, comply
with the directive.
The seminars address common
questions relating to the
modification and upgrade
of existing machinery.
Attendees will learn how to
establish at what point a
modification should be
classed as a new machine,
and therefore requires a CE
mark, and when a
modification is subject to
the Provision and Use of
Work Equipment Directive. More articles from SICK (UK) Ltd: |
