Just a little bit about ground the machinery division covers the following: at directives Machinery Directive low voltage electromagnetic compatibility directive test equipment x we also carry out purist inspections on that a national basis and across Europe we will provide countrywide seminar either the designated facility all we can to do in-house seminars whichever suits and we're also the the technical appointed technical advisers for the (PPM) is process packaging machinery Association and just moving on we'll be looking at the Machinery Directive in relationship to machines now obviously the Directive does not distinguish between a machine that sits on the table production I'm everything comes within the school the directive up in the UK we have to set so regulations that we should beware We have the machine redirected still to OKC not really lays down the requirement on them on a posture that he has to comply with before he can places machine or equipment for use on the European markets and not therefore applies mainly to new machine be getting to do so maybe some second hand machinery coming from outside to view however when the these doubt it is will be develops somebody in Europe said well what about all the equipment that we have in Europe at the present moment so the European yep Commission got together and come out with the work equipment directive which who was the use of existing equipment we placed that into our legislation is the provision and use of work equipment regulations to you find first sight it looks as if we have one set regulation for the manufacture and into the says regulations for the use it and if that was the case life would be a lot easier but that is love overlaps between these two pieces of legislation I E one simple one is regulation up US is as the use it if you piece of equipment for use in your red plowmen that it must comply do all CE applicable directives so therefore these it now has a requirement to actually makes You with it equipment they are getting is not only see a team obviously correctly so the machinery safety directive
If this is the data that we go to speak about most sup how do we comply what we need to do the idea is to try and say machine lined up where you know the guiding was perhaps not as good as it should be in the about may view the house is up to a machine where we now obvious adequate Gottingen safety precautions and plays you the it's a loss to ensure the people go through a gate that the machine stops this place in a safe manner so this is the one of the main concept so the Machinery Directive unfortunately the only defense you have is in a dire active is the views due diligence you ripped isn't identify all recognize that reasonably practicable so when you looking at being compliant with the data is then you have to look at it from a due diligence point to do so this is affectionately known as is the HSC also in probably should be age but if John Wayne was going to make a cowboy film one block to beach an easy ride a horse this is what he'd be covered by now to demonstrate due diligence so you the directive do is refer to the cause looking at foreseeable use and foreseeable miss you so we have to look at every element of the machines safety in fee is applied just significance CE Marking well we have CE Marking direct is what we called new approach directives the benefit is if you comply with one of those directives saw any applicable directives you now have a market have over million people even sell to and is growing a bad day by day maybe not the biggest added population but certainly from the last record in GTI we were they the most so affluent society and implement implications is these are legal requirements in the UK if you don't comply worst-case scenario there is a possibility videos and all more realistically it will be removing your product from the market all been unable to sell your product all the bad publicity that goes with it and the requirements are basically documentation will that you have complied with the directive and you have the documentation to approve or endorse that you have this compliance carried out this compliance so whether he is not listed forum the main directives that associated with machinery and probably if you listen to this you will be affected by one or all of these dialect is thought me the Machinery Directive that is directed we're going to concentrate on I will go into a little bit more depth on others will too the next paid top I am low voltage directive this looks at everything this operating at volts up to a thousand volts so if your machine plugged into a socket or is it volt supplies and it will come under the global is directed this directive is being reviewed at the present moment to read to remove the lower limit rolls if it's got any electrical equipment on then it will come onto the global is directed about amendment hasn't been adopted yet
We then have the EMC that active electromagnetic compatibility directed and this looks at equipment giving out all be susceptible to radio frequencies so he stood on the production line the control point you take out more about four then make a call and the computer goes off and all the production line stops last EMC directive is to reduce that care and so you know operate the machine in somebody's tally changing channel on a straight over the road and we don't have the pressure equipment directive that looks at pipe work that has a pressure more than about so any machines then you would be looking at do you comply with the pressure equipment directive is well have the pressure equipment directive from machinery isn't orders at times because there are exclusions within the pressure equipment directive
If you are complying to the Machinery Directive can sleep now a directive if we look at that each other and individual a unique number where there are p.m. has no bearing on you know anybody listening to this a weapon out what a directive diseases it places a responsibility on the member states to actually introduced that directed into their legal systems which they have done and the UK has brought these directives into our law by the Houston issue with regulations and in the UK we've made it a criminal offence punishable by fines and imprisonment not to comply no he's where you might lose the level playing field because from their mean not be the same stringent requirement into the country's they will all put the directors into that legislation how the then force gotten legal requirement is up to the member states so that could be different so these are the full directives introduced into our regulations so the machinery that it becomes a supply machinery in brackets safety regulations with the statutory instrument members again that is unique for that regulation the lowest at it becomes electrical equipment in brackets safety regulations and so on and so on so that's the legal entity for furrows in the UK and out if we look at the machine it out in time break that down a little bit more a the first thing any directive doesn't this is constant across the directives is it actually has a school what the directive Cialis and if we look at the this cool to the Machinery Directive
It's Michael machinery interchangeable equipment safety components lifting accessories are included in this cool change group in weddings come within the school tuition the directive removable mechanical transmission devices partly completed machines a wildlife to do now is just take a a little brief sevens on each of those definitions within the school the directive his machine for and assembly treated with or intended to be fitted with the drive system all other than direct applied manual all you want acid and the reason behind this is that if on applying money left a house arises if upset that money will have it all and the house should go away and consistently parts of components at least one of which moves
which join together for a specific application and not less sentence is fairly important because you could say well an electric motor is a machine well it has League tops and told Poland's lease want to which moves booked from Amman a function pointer view it I don't look gay hero totally on the end of the drive shaft then it will not have a specific application therefore my point of view I was yes an electric motor is not vitiate so you know it is looking at the here love what is said directive so we have it machine I this is given by Honeywell animal power then it would not come under the this cool with the directive under the same to be a little bit of a glitch that then we go on soon the next destination that which looks at an assembly machines and I'll partly completed machinery
which in order to achieve this aim and our engine control to function as an integral now one of the examples that is rule that manufacture he can CE mark his rule book because he can't comply with all the aspects of the directive so he can give the ruble what's called a declaration a big corporation to say that I have complied as much as I can then somebody will then bill the perimeter fence around it put the necessary safety on not from a defense for getting dressed and not soon will then be responsible for CE Marking not me clauses cell because it will function is an integral whole all you could be looking at bottling planned or any line where the machinery all works to get so if we take a machine and we had some control say we were absolute deviation a robot that although the machine maybe see a comp lines and not the robot maybe she called line what we would have to do is treat this is a complex assembly and CE Marking such this definition is interchangeable equipment and AP everybody should be wedded the Machinery Directive or any doubt active is trying to call but any aspect where that machinery aware that equipment is used so it's not just fine to use its across all aspects in all fields and this school definition was mainly aimed at the agricultural market where you know you looking at you have a bitch tractor you going to had different equipment on the back or the front about truck to and thereby that can alter the safety of the functional got trapped at so what this isn't a changeable equipment means a device which up placing into service with machine fact that is assembled with that machine fact about the operator himself in or did change solution or attribute a new function insofar as this equipment is God to so if we had an injection molding machine if you just going to change to than those toes will become interchangeable equipment if we say that example where without it plowing equipment to the truck to could dominate the truck to mall susceptible to turning over all typical so that not interchangeable equipment has to be /c about to make sure it is compatible with that use for that truck to lifting up latest whose only sold is directly manual effort is included in the scope of the directive because obviously about planned applying that manual effort and take it all that and there's a possibility that that tool could fall on somebody's head off my head so that is included in the directive a lifting equipment and assembling parts or components again at least once want to which moves which %uh going join together intended for lifting loads others only power sources direct applied you let not included the directive lifting access to remains a component or equipment not attached to the lifting machinery put allowing the law to be held which is placed between machinery and the Lord or on the Lord itself so we're looking at who send anything I've Mitch so if we lifting then that would become clusters and she within the school the Machinery Directive again seen a lot of people don't realize this that the machine the directive also covers integral part in the law's switch out independently placed on the market slayings rules anything that's intended to be used for a lifting operation should come see Matsui CD if we lead to our local DIY shop a applause a lead to rule accuses a listening device then it should be /c not for doing it happens very often and this next destination is probably one of the most contentious definition to me I don't know where that everybody is aware but the Machinery Directive changes the beginning of last year one of the issues with the old directed was that it didn't really specify
What is safety component was a it just talked in VA said so what we've tried to do here is in with the introduction overt the modified directive St is to make some so definitions and above what is a Sippy cup awarded and these are the three definitions from the directive City comported is something that says to fulfill its safety function fine no problem which is independently placed on the market season gold by independently dozen calm as possible machine or anything but this last one where the Celia and other malfunctions which endangers the safety of persons no not seem so open up a whole new roster equipment now mandate house see marks on them you know if we take it late we put the strokes at pressurize some not lead now if Obama headed up a look at anything in that see long not pressurize throat breaks up this that it puts all of my head so I we looking now at pneumatic hydraulics took sole beans CE marked in their own right a if we look at non return valves you is that providing a safety function f does it now have to be seen on the about I want it would have done with the introduction of the directive is they've actually added an annex where they've put an indicative list wall the a-class safety components is about it indicated they are just examples they are not exhausted but the first one extraction systems now has to be /c much to it if we work in a factory we're going to put a bit a ventilation extracted we went up to now last element relation extraction contract is to provide us with a CE mark for that and the second one is probably one of the most a I reasoned eyebrow-raising ones' got and protection devices are now classed as a safety device auto safety component see it I'm going to got in my firkin a machine and I damage not God and go out to get another one and now have to get that one with a CE mark and with a declaration of conformity so I can no longer just change God all we move into the new with God and you from the workshop because somebody's going to have to take the responsibility about Julie making sure that God is CA about and is creating love issues throughout the
the machinery the at industry and interested fairly straightforward control devices for calling lifting appliances X at and the fall devices and pressure not detection and presents a table like kittens we would expect them to come see not anywhere safety belts a seat on this is yeah now in the indicative list so then I'll come into the machine the directive and actually states hydraulic non-return valves and obviously if you looking at hydraulic non-return valves then he would also be looking at you must not meet about us to the doubts above the safety devices that we would now up to have with CE marked on if we were going out to buy them now and obviously again when we go about to pee were from we would be in ball there if we didn't get desk one and then something went wrong with it understandable scenarios that at exploded within the data active that you might come across in in your work hood rule and the first one is if you up creating a complex assembly buy into linking a scene is a big sifting machines
You are in effect creating something new on the European market that for whoever is coming out about work was to ensure that the whole assembly complies with the directive regardless of the age of the machines that we looking at and I think one other things to be aware that if you are looking at modifying some existing lines it is pointed out early on in the contract who is going to be taking responsibility for the CE Marking all lot about contract because it could come down to a contractual element if your old saying that the functional performance in the machine of complex assembly such as a direct is considered you are PA creating something new must ensure that directive is complied with so is I was idle and making fish fingers of packing fish fingers and I was goanna take that live in speeded up to pot law fish fingers obviously the existing guiding might now be sufficient rigidity to stop the fishing this line of so if I was taking a out of the handed to Robert is all lot laptop machine than I would have to see the market again if the social performance unaltered fish can be classed as a repair know that I action is required apart from risk assessment and compliance with to you so if we just changing like-for-like taking one rule went out and putting on know the rule book and then all we have to do is make sure that we thought it would appear were a not is all we need to do however if you look at it
What you need to put a bigger of the robot and on again to check it out the outside the original to run it is then we would have to see optimist the this again and what happened is that extended the exemptions in the directive these are just the new exemptions means a punch bowl and now includes trailers household appliances vine taken out at the machine redirect implicit in the load is added there was always this issue that if you took an elected local on the drive did the town that the main house it was you would call you to all two-week-old to the Machinery Directive I don't know what did that mean has it was elected to yourself so it took come under the lowest directive which was a city so situation so taken all household appliances now the machine that active and place them into the low-ball said so in CT we can get a washing machine now because it's so much a I sequence being taken out all you will you know office machinery for the copies up moving possible is there any real hazard very little so they've all gone into the lows directive is well a second-biggest switches will hold its and high voltage switchgear and as rut an about earlier more visible tight have now been ruled out to the Machinery Directive aren't listed to the low voltage directive civil go anymore does going to buy off the shelf makes you with it up the Death Race console only complies lo these directed not the machine directive Seismic and this is something that the that people miss and love the directive is you this entry areas but this is fairly bloodlines annexes these regulations also applied to in-house machine
When a man of much of the relevant machinery himself puts up machinery service or having imported machinery from a the outside the put that machine reduces so as far as the directive is concerned if I am going to take a machine building and I'll premises only ever use it for myself there is no distinction you still have to see a market issue a declaration of conformity to yourself an issue it complies with all the machinery requirements low voltage in EMC doubt it is a slightly different what this is that you have to comply with the directive you don't have to see the actual equipment book the Machinery Directive is fairly specific Matt you do up to do so if you've got an in-house machine that you've got to modify and change the functional performance although you know selling it you still should CE mark is on if you report machinery from outside the which is the European Economic Area then again you need to make sure that there are European the ages so somebody in Europe
Who is responsible for all CE Marking about equipment it can be seen on by somebody outside to the but it's always worthwhile to check today it is somebody in the was taken responsibility and the house to be responsible person this is the word to the directive there has to be responsible person appointed the manufacture to be the responsible person all he doesn't feel is competent to do that he can appoint an authorized representative and Stop Passim most carry out a risk assessment and strangely enough that was never asked for in that directives that with previous to this one so this is fairly you asking for a risk
assessment and what it is risk assessment should be carried out in order to determine the health and safety requirements
Which applied to the machinery and have they've been met and the manufacturers authorized representative most determine the limits if the machinery which include as you said before intended use and any reasonably foreseeable misuse they're all so that is one of the crystal balls that we have to look up a sure whether the people manufactured this dried on low or they would envision anybody putting his head with it please book say that's what we have to look at us foreseeable misuse and the downside is in the UK non-compliance is could result in prosecution and penalties on a summary conviction to a fine not to exceed the statutory maximum which is twenty thousand pound and of months imprisonment or on convection oven indictment an unlimited fine and oh two years imprisonment we asked us to mister Wong what the difference was that had summary conviction would be something that's dealt with it Magistrates Court convection oven indictment would be something that's dealt with at a trial called up again you know is nobody that I know I've gone to prison for incorrectly CE marking that machines a soviet there is always that possibility the only thing David uses because when they introduced a new directive to begin the last year.
European Commission said that member states may should make it more this week is not to comply so where before there was a paragraph about you must supply the documentation in a time commensurate with the bones that now said if you don't do that there is a a monetary penalty for that now so if asked to produced a technical file that we don't do it in the time specified that it could be a twenty thousand pounds side a again operating instructions to be another , so which was very soon stop so rushing off to a fair amount of money on so it does make it more important to make sure that the documentation is that is available so we look at the machine the directive and the whole essence beat beat behind new approach directives is what we call the essential health and safety requirements maybe so slightly different in different directives in the global these directives to call the essential safety requirements will this is this is a and these this is the wish list wet you have to do is a manufacturer law
if you the use what you have to check to the manufacturer's still a is a list of questions but the the no prescriptive very much open to interpretation you know I'm not going to go to the mall the split into six sections section one is general applies to all machinery so that has to be filled in for every machine and then we have sections which look at machinery in specific environments a if you look in the general lawn is starting and it is a machine just out safely and that really is all it say's it's up to the manufacturer the design it to ensure that this happens a I'm not going to go through all of them on just goanna touch other coca love the so more interesting ones if you want up to get the first essential health and safety class . passes to carry out a risk assessment first we must identify all houses as anything they have the potential to cause I'm so which start with a blank piece of paper from a design is going to be able to write Lesley stall houses and that was to assess the risks lies the livelihood of the person or persons coming into contact with the house it and how much damage it would cause was going to be structure bruise always going to be a loss let this is another one and I'll put this into basically look at the way that the scenery in the thought processes with machinery and European safety witnesses stability and it is machinery and its components must be designed constructed stable and also use without
risk a beloved setting falling or unexpected movement that is the same as the
What was in the previous addict this is being added the second said this requirement also applies during transport Asian assembly dismantling scrapping and any other action involving the machinery so what's happened now is we've actually got cradle to grave directive although the see each time period lasts for years from a design and manufacture point de vie they now have to look at it from a complete life cycle stitch did you know replied to look at it for a ten year period have to look at it from sort inception to sloppy on the instruction manuals and things out should reflect that about life cycle another the essential health and safety requirements have changed is the gods must be securely held in place a must protect against ejection of all your materials and objects and then it goes to see that six cut must be fixed with systems that community or with two and its is that you know to something to eat not every day appliance and this is the one that really is touching love the people out is that fixings must remain attached to the God when the guide is removed so every got now every fix God pasta have waited sixties so every machine is being made produce to the previous directed will now have to be modified if you're buying anything and it has gobs on those guys have to have looted fixings
Where possible gods must be careful remaining in position without fixings I'm sentenced small soda changes to the instructions and the directive said the instructions must be produced in the language if the intended use it this is being changed this is right all machine we must be complete with instructions in an official community language which something like twenty great all languages have the members the into which is being placed on the monarchy on the word original must appear on this language vision a translation must be provided by the manufacturer all his authorized representative all about the person bringing the machinery into that language area these instructions must be marked with the word translation says no legal requirement this directive removes the legal requirement follow the instructions to be in the language if the intended use it because I was grinding machine from Germany which obviously is that an official community language I completed you stop instruction manuals in language I can then say that the person who's bringing into the UK your job is to translate these instructions the manufactured now has no legal requirements to do the transmission so if you are behind the scenes are all the machines please ensure that it is in the contract up just to go on a little bit the I'm not used to doing these questions as we go and looking at when we do look at machines are we modify machines are when we manufacture them all even if we just made chain in them that if we do have any issues that we need to address then what we need to look at is the EN standards the European normal normalize relations standards I don't know how many people are using these book the issue is that what it sees in the directive and referred to in few is that machinery manufacture in conformity with specified published European harmonized standards will be please you to comply with the essential help city clubs covered by those standards I'm looking at gadding and reach dismisses
if I go to what the Standard Series then I have met my obligations don't have to do any more all out to do is what the standards is and I just put a few little so that sides understand there's e-type standards apply to all machines is actually only two it takes time and it's now a one is the main one is one called which looks at basic safety designed machinery be taxed on did I call them the when you started see if I'm going to put an emergency stop on that is not meant to stop standard city in a tribal which will tell me what I need to do if I'm going to fool got shall betty's gadding standards if I want to put electricity and do with it Disney and standard full and then we have see text and is where which are specific for machinery tight so if I'm building a rule what that is c-type standard for robot I need to just checked it my rulebook meets that's a type standard because again SeaTac standard mmm give you presumption of compliance with the directive there is a bit discussion going on with this sometimes c-type standards actually do give you full compliance with the Data Book hasn't been resolved yet so we start off with the its I stand is we movies under the beachside standards and then the same time stand the machine specific standard should incorporate the best up to the relevant stunned as the to be to that particular machine and if you looking at standards nearly all EN standards I links to a particular directive for the machinery that active you looking somewhere in this region about six hundred and stealing standards for but I love about that only be so to said you that you would come across on a regular basis example be taxed and is selection of guiding manufacturing got said in a the position you have got to protect for and lower limbs use when I put it because this is just something I I don't really understand responded publishes values to see if he dismisses to prevent danger zones being raised by the human lives a person's up three years a page in the book said it also provides see if this is to prevent danger zone been reached by the lower limbs up this is a fourteen years image in a bull I don't know why we differentiate with a job I've never understood about up and I don't think we employ a lot three-year-olds now the present moment pool however that is the school without sub-standard I'm eight games you send shots which helps you so if you had at danger it hi the danger zone we had a rule what it was swinging round which was you me too high and we had a reach from the defense to the rulebook I amice then if we look across that job its is I had to take the structure has to be . meters high and if we look at that is a little nauseated detectives took his love millimeters should not be used without additional said measures so there's a lot of information in an easy and standards again a European on is a millimeters long so if we going to pull any jobbing on Oct gadding
if we put it less in a millimeters that with down twenty it doesn't comply with what was standards is so all this information is in the standards and the role based on the European average person and he some hoses safe side standards a a cat out at the this probably about SeaTac standards for particular specific machines step after we come probably sent to help the city crime is put together what technical construction which is documentation no support that we could correctly seem out though machine operation equipment the technical file has to be kept for ten years and it is really the only way to demonstrate that you will comply with the essential health and safety requirements and the other provisions of the directive by the way it used to be an issue with the is that for the manufactures security is well see if anybody modifies
When these machines subsequently somebody gets in your head and a he's got a file it shows exactly how that machine was manufactured up just declaration conformity a it just sounded all all the information required visited the Annex A directed the only difference is that we now have to put on the name and address the person in the community who is also tries to compile a technical about it different from the book so technical for every patient machine has to reside in the European Union is not person has to be digest us to be European address
I'll but CE mark it does have specific a that mentions on just a very quick a just to let you know that things are changing from a functional safety for the view we had any in standard - for which was deleted last the remember December last year and these two standards are actually gone be replacements . full I'll and what they allow you to do which never did was to allow you to pull safety through software so that on you so to wire systems that he comported with functional blocks which is very flexible you can added to the collection law will get a safety device obviously the only were complex machines because the hardware from and about system is fairly expensive and that is a system actually trying to a analyze
which one love those to stand is that should be used in which circumstances the data presents a full where what categories thirteen-a introduces performance levels and it looks like the comp order parts as well now not just the type wiring of paving it looks at what the integrity of the comp poured into using and every manufacturer of city Comptroller's is now I want to provide the what's called the empty CD which is that time too dangerous fairly a it's a postage approach former risk assessment identified original allocated performance level devise a system of the texture I we welcome poured into the use what.cd take D this component then pilot is out design and not is fairly complex his fairly time-consuming for the people who have no been introduced to the yes and it is a wrist strap which is similar tonight for all these a few law a variations on these out our one day out that we do around the country that Camilla a some people who call we give a deduction into CE fewer a standards risk assessment obviously in less than an hour there's no law you can actually see it we also have the first so the only that we know of and does University certificate in machinery safety
where the Teesside University actually moderate an award a pop degree in machinery safety a live this year we will be a introduce you to new which university courses which one in electrical machinery safety unwanted functional machinery safety I'm not basically is the end
Just a little bit about ground the machinery division covers the following: at directives Machinery Directive low voltage electromagnetic compatibility directive test equipment x we also carry out purist inspections on that a national basis and across Europe we will provide countrywide seminar either the designated facility all we can to do in-house seminars whichever suits and we're also the the technical appointed technical advisers for the (PPM) is process packaging machinery Association and just moving on we'll be looking at the Machinery Directive in relationship to machines now obviously the Directive does not distinguish between a machine that sits on the table production I'm everything comes within the school the directive up in the UK we have to set so regulations that we should beware We have the machine redirected still to OKC not really lays down the requirement on them on a posture that he has to comply with before he can places machine or equipment for use on the European markets and not therefore applies mainly to new machine be getting to do so maybe some second hand machinery coming from outside to view however when the these doubt it is will be develops somebody in Europe said well what about all the equipment that we have in Europe at the present moment so the European yep Commission got together and come out with the work equipment directive which who was the use of existing equipment we placed that into our legislation is the provision and use of work equipment regulations to you find first sight it looks as if we have one set regulation for the manufacture and into the says regulations for the use it and if that was the case life would be a lot easier but that is love overlaps between these two pieces of legislation I E one simple one is regulation up US is as the use it if you piece of equipment for use in your red plowmen that it must comply do all CE applicable directives so therefore these it now has a requirement to actually makes You with it equipment they are getting is not only see a team obviously correctly so the machinery safety directive
If this is the data that we go to speak about most sup how do we comply what we need to do the idea is to try and say machine lined up where you know the guiding was perhaps not as good as it should be in the about may view the house is up to a machine where we now obvious adequate Gottingen safety precautions and plays you the it's a loss to ensure the people go through a gate that the machine stops this place in a safe manner so this is the one of the main concept so the Machinery Directive unfortunately the only defense you have is in a dire active is the views due diligence you ripped isn't identify all recognize that reasonably practicable so when you looking at being compliant with the data is then you have to look at it from a due diligence point to do so this is affectionately known as is the HSC also in probably should be age but if John Wayne was going to make a cowboy film one block to beach an easy ride a horse this is what he'd be covered by now to demonstrate due diligence so you the directive do is refer to the cause looking at foreseeable use and foreseeable miss you so we have to look at every element of the machines safety in fee is applied just significance CE Marking well we have CE Marking direct is what we called new approach directives the benefit is if you comply with one of those directives saw any applicable directives you now have a market have over million people even sell to and is growing a bad day by day maybe not the biggest added population but certainly from the last record in GTI we were they the most so affluent society and implement implications is these are legal requirements in the UK if you don't comply worst-case scenario there is a possibility videos and all more realistically it will be removing your product from the market all been unable to sell your product all the bad publicity that goes with it and the requirements are basically documentation will that you have complied with the directive and you have the documentation to approve or endorse that you have this compliance carried out this compliance so whether he is not listed forum the main directives that associated with machinery and probably if you listen to this you will be affected by one or all of these dialect is thought me the Machinery Directive that is directed we're going to concentrate on I will go into a little bit more depth on others will too the next paid top I am low voltage directive this looks at everything this operating at volts up to a thousand volts so if your machine plugged into a socket or is it volt supplies and it will come under the global is directed this directive is being reviewed at the present moment to read to remove the lower limit rolls if it's got any electrical equipment on then it will come onto the global is directed about amendment hasn't been adopted yet
We then have the EMC that active electromagnetic compatibility directed and this looks at equipment giving out all be susceptible to radio frequencies so he stood on the production line the control point you take out more about four then make a call and the computer goes off and all the production line stops last EMC directive is to reduce that care and so you know operate the machine in somebody's tally changing channel on a straight over the road and we don't have the pressure equipment directive that looks at pipe work that has a pressure more than about so any machines then you would be looking at do you comply with the pressure equipment directive is well have the pressure equipment directive from machinery isn't orders at times because there are exclusions within the pressure equipment directive
If you are complying to the Machinery Directive can sleep now a directive if we look at that each other and individual a unique number where there are p.m. has no bearing on you know anybody listening to this a weapon out what a directive diseases it places a responsibility on the member states to actually introduced that directed into their legal systems which they have done and the UK has brought these directives into our law by the Houston issue with regulations and in the UK we've made it a criminal offence punishable by fines and imprisonment not to comply no he's where you might lose the level playing field because from their mean not be the same stringent requirement into the country's they will all put the directors into that legislation how the then force gotten legal requirement is up to the member states so that could be different so these are the full directives introduced into our regulations so the machinery that it becomes a supply machinery in brackets safety regulations with the statutory instrument members again that is unique for that regulation the lowest at it becomes electrical equipment in brackets safety regulations and so on and so on so that's the legal entity for furrows in the UK and out if we look at the machine it out in time break that down a little bit more a the first thing any directive doesn't this is constant across the directives is it actually has a school what the directive Cialis and if we look at the this cool to the Machinery Directive
It's Michael machinery interchangeable equipment safety components lifting accessories are included in this cool change group in weddings come within the school tuition the directive removable mechanical transmission devices partly completed machines a wildlife to do now is just take a a little brief sevens on each of those definitions within the school the directive his machine for and assembly treated with or intended to be fitted with the drive system all other than direct applied manual all you want acid and the reason behind this is that if on applying money left a house arises if upset that money will have it all and the house should go away and consistently parts of components at least one of which moves
which join together for a specific application and not less sentence is fairly important because you could say well an electric motor is a machine well it has League tops and told Poland's lease want to which moves booked from Amman a function pointer view it I don't look gay hero totally on the end of the drive shaft then it will not have a specific application therefore my point of view I was yes an electric motor is not vitiate so you know it is looking at the here love what is said directive so we have it machine I this is given by Honeywell animal power then it would not come under the this cool with the directive under the same to be a little bit of a glitch that then we go on soon the next destination that which looks at an assembly machines and I'll partly completed machinery
which in order to achieve this aim and our engine control to function as an integral now one of the examples that is rule that manufacture he can CE mark his rule book because he can't comply with all the aspects of the directive so he can give the ruble what's called a declaration a big corporation to say that I have complied as much as I can then somebody will then bill the perimeter fence around it put the necessary safety on not from a defense for getting dressed and not soon will then be responsible for CE Marking not me clauses cell because it will function is an integral whole all you could be looking at bottling planned or any line where the machinery all works to get so if we take a machine and we had some control say we were absolute deviation a robot that although the machine maybe see a comp lines and not the robot maybe she called line what we would have to do is treat this is a complex assembly and CE Marking such this definition is interchangeable equipment and AP everybody should be wedded the Machinery Directive or any doubt active is trying to call but any aspect where that machinery aware that equipment is used so it's not just fine to use its across all aspects in all fields and this school definition was mainly aimed at the agricultural market where you know you looking at you have a bitch tractor you going to had different equipment on the back or the front about truck to and thereby that can alter the safety of the functional got trapped at so what this isn't a changeable equipment means a device which up placing into service with machine fact that is assembled with that machine fact about the operator himself in or did change solution or attribute a new function insofar as this equipment is God to so if we had an injection molding machine if you just going to change to than those toes will become interchangeable equipment if we say that example where without it plowing equipment to the truck to could dominate the truck to mall susceptible to turning over all typical so that not interchangeable equipment has to be /c about to make sure it is compatible with that use for that truck to lifting up latest whose only sold is directly manual effort is included in the scope of the directive because obviously about planned applying that manual effort and take it all that and there's a possibility that that tool could fall on somebody's head off my head so that is included in the directive a lifting equipment and assembling parts or components again at least once want to which moves which %uh going join together intended for lifting loads others only power sources direct applied you let not included the directive lifting access to remains a component or equipment not attached to the lifting machinery put allowing the law to be held which is placed between machinery and the Lord or on the Lord itself so we're looking at who send anything I've Mitch so if we lifting then that would become clusters and she within the school the Machinery Directive again seen a lot of people don't realize this that the machine the directive also covers integral part in the law's switch out independently placed on the market slayings rules anything that's intended to be used for a lifting operation should come see Matsui CD if we lead to our local DIY shop a applause a lead to rule accuses a listening device then it should be /c not for doing it happens very often and this next destination is probably one of the most contentious definition to me I don't know where that everybody is aware but the Machinery Directive changes the beginning of last year one of the issues with the old directed was that it didn't really specify
What is safety component was a it just talked in VA said so what we've tried to do here is in with the introduction overt the modified directive St is to make some so definitions and above what is a Sippy cup awarded and these are the three definitions from the directive City comported is something that says to fulfill its safety function fine no problem which is independently placed on the market season gold by independently dozen calm as possible machine or anything but this last one where the Celia and other malfunctions which endangers the safety of persons no not seem so open up a whole new roster equipment now mandate house see marks on them you know if we take it late we put the strokes at pressurize some not lead now if Obama headed up a look at anything in that see long not pressurize throat breaks up this that it puts all of my head so I we looking now at pneumatic hydraulics took sole beans CE marked in their own right a if we look at non return valves you is that providing a safety function f does it now have to be seen on the about I want it would have done with the introduction of the directive is they've actually added an annex where they've put an indicative list wall the a-class safety components is about it indicated they are just examples they are not exhausted but the first one extraction systems now has to be /c much to it if we work in a factory we're going to put a bit a ventilation extracted we went up to now last element relation extraction contract is to provide us with a CE mark for that and the second one is probably one of the most a I reasoned eyebrow-raising ones' got and protection devices are now classed as a safety device auto safety component see it I'm going to got in my firkin a machine and I damage not God and go out to get another one and now have to get that one with a CE mark and with a declaration of conformity so I can no longer just change God all we move into the new with God and you from the workshop because somebody's going to have to take the responsibility about Julie making sure that God is CA about and is creating love issues throughout the
the machinery the at industry and interested fairly straightforward control devices for calling lifting appliances X at and the fall devices and pressure not detection and presents a table like kittens we would expect them to come see not anywhere safety belts a seat on this is yeah now in the indicative list so then I'll come into the machine the directive and actually states hydraulic non-return valves and obviously if you looking at hydraulic non-return valves then he would also be looking at you must not meet about us to the doubts above the safety devices that we would now up to have with CE marked on if we were going out to buy them now and obviously again when we go about to pee were from we would be in ball there if we didn't get desk one and then something went wrong with it understandable scenarios that at exploded within the data active that you might come across in in your work hood rule and the first one is if you up creating a complex assembly buy into linking a scene is a big sifting machines
You are in effect creating something new on the European market that for whoever is coming out about work was to ensure that the whole assembly complies with the directive regardless of the age of the machines that we looking at and I think one other things to be aware that if you are looking at modifying some existing lines it is pointed out early on in the contract who is going to be taking responsibility for the CE Marking all lot about contract because it could come down to a contractual element if your old saying that the functional performance in the machine of complex assembly such as a direct is considered you are PA creating something new must ensure that directive is complied with so is I was idle and making fish fingers of packing fish fingers and I was goanna take that live in speeded up to pot law fish fingers obviously the existing guiding might now be sufficient rigidity to stop the fishing this line of so if I was taking a out of the handed to Robert is all lot laptop machine than I would have to see the market again if the social performance unaltered fish can be classed as a repair know that I action is required apart from risk assessment and compliance with to you so if we just changing like-for-like taking one rule went out and putting on know the rule book and then all we have to do is make sure that we thought it would appear were a not is all we need to do however if you look at it
What you need to put a bigger of the robot and on again to check it out the outside the original to run it is then we would have to see optimist the this again and what happened is that extended the exemptions in the directive these are just the new exemptions means a punch bowl and now includes trailers household appliances vine taken out at the machine redirect implicit in the load is added there was always this issue that if you took an elected local on the drive did the town that the main house it was you would call you to all two-week-old to the Machinery Directive I don't know what did that mean has it was elected to yourself so it took come under the lowest directive which was a city so situation so taken all household appliances now the machine that active and place them into the low-ball said so in CT we can get a washing machine now because it's so much a I sequence being taken out all you will you know office machinery for the copies up moving possible is there any real hazard very little so they've all gone into the lows directive is well a second-biggest switches will hold its and high voltage switchgear and as rut an about earlier more visible tight have now been ruled out to the Machinery Directive aren't listed to the low voltage directive civil go anymore does going to buy off the shelf makes you with it up the Death Race console only complies lo these directed not the machine directive Seismic and this is something that the that people miss and love the directive is you this entry areas but this is fairly bloodlines annexes these regulations also applied to in-house machine
When a man of much of the relevant machinery himself puts up machinery service or having imported machinery from a the outside the put that machine reduces so as far as the directive is concerned if I am going to take a machine building and I'll premises only ever use it for myself there is no distinction you still have to see a market issue a declaration of conformity to yourself an issue it complies with all the machinery requirements low voltage in EMC doubt it is a slightly different what this is that you have to comply with the directive you don't have to see the actual equipment book the Machinery Directive is fairly specific Matt you do up to do so if you've got an in-house machine that you've got to modify and change the functional performance although you know selling it you still should CE mark is on if you report machinery from outside the which is the European Economic Area then again you need to make sure that there are European the ages so somebody in Europe
Who is responsible for all CE Marking about equipment it can be seen on by somebody outside to the but it's always worthwhile to check today it is somebody in the was taken responsibility and the house to be responsible person this is the word to the directive there has to be responsible person appointed the manufacture to be the responsible person all he doesn't feel is competent to do that he can appoint an authorized representative and Stop Passim most carry out a risk assessment and strangely enough that was never asked for in that directives that with previous to this one so this is fairly you asking for a risk
assessment and what it is risk assessment should be carried out in order to determine the health and safety requirements
Which applied to the machinery and have they've been met and the manufacturers authorized representative most determine the limits if the machinery which include as you said before intended use and any reasonably foreseeable misuse they're all so that is one of the crystal balls that we have to look up a sure whether the people manufactured this dried on low or they would envision anybody putting his head with it please book say that's what we have to look at us foreseeable misuse and the downside is in the UK non-compliance is could result in prosecution and penalties on a summary conviction to a fine not to exceed the statutory maximum which is twenty thousand pound and of months imprisonment or on convection oven indictment an unlimited fine and oh two years imprisonment we asked us to mister Wong what the difference was that had summary conviction would be something that's dealt with it Magistrates Court convection oven indictment would be something that's dealt with at a trial called up again you know is nobody that I know I've gone to prison for incorrectly CE marking that machines a soviet there is always that possibility the only thing David uses because when they introduced a new directive to begin the last year.
European Commission said that member states may should make it more this week is not to comply so where before there was a paragraph about you must supply the documentation in a time commensurate with the bones that now said if you don't do that there is a a monetary penalty for that now so if asked to produced a technical file that we don't do it in the time specified that it could be a twenty thousand pounds side a again operating instructions to be another , so which was very soon stop so rushing off to a fair amount of money on so it does make it more important to make sure that the documentation is that is available so we look at the machine the directive and the whole essence beat beat behind new approach directives is what we call the essential health and safety requirements maybe so slightly different in different directives in the global these directives to call the essential safety requirements will this is this is a and these this is the wish list wet you have to do is a manufacturer law
if you the use what you have to check to the manufacturer's still a is a list of questions but the the no prescriptive very much open to interpretation you know I'm not going to go to the mall the split into six sections section one is general applies to all machinery so that has to be filled in for every machine and then we have sections which look at machinery in specific environments a if you look in the general lawn is starting and it is a machine just out safely and that really is all it say's it's up to the manufacturer the design it to ensure that this happens a I'm not going to go through all of them on just goanna touch other coca love the so more interesting ones if you want up to get the first essential health and safety class . passes to carry out a risk assessment first we must identify all houses as anything they have the potential to cause I'm so which start with a blank piece of paper from a design is going to be able to write Lesley stall houses and that was to assess the risks lies the livelihood of the person or persons coming into contact with the house it and how much damage it would cause was going to be structure bruise always going to be a loss let this is another one and I'll put this into basically look at the way that the scenery in the thought processes with machinery and European safety witnesses stability and it is machinery and its components must be designed constructed stable and also use without
risk a beloved setting falling or unexpected movement that is the same as the
What was in the previous addict this is being added the second said this requirement also applies during transport Asian assembly dismantling scrapping and any other action involving the machinery so what's happened now is we've actually got cradle to grave directive although the see each time period lasts for years from a design and manufacture point de vie they now have to look at it from a complete life cycle stitch did you know replied to look at it for a ten year period have to look at it from sort inception to sloppy on the instruction manuals and things out should reflect that about life cycle another the essential health and safety requirements have changed is the gods must be securely held in place a must protect against ejection of all your materials and objects and then it goes to see that six cut must be fixed with systems that community or with two and its is that you know to something to eat not every day appliance and this is the one that really is touching love the people out is that fixings must remain attached to the God when the guide is removed so every got now every fix God pasta have waited sixties so every machine is being made produce to the previous directed will now have to be modified if you're buying anything and it has gobs on those guys have to have looted fixings
Where possible gods must be careful remaining in position without fixings I'm sentenced small soda changes to the instructions and the directive said the instructions must be produced in the language if the intended use it this is being changed this is right all machine we must be complete with instructions in an official community language which something like twenty great all languages have the members the into which is being placed on the monarchy on the word original must appear on this language vision a translation must be provided by the manufacturer all his authorized representative all about the person bringing the machinery into that language area these instructions must be marked with the word translation says no legal requirement this directive removes the legal requirement follow the instructions to be in the language if the intended use it because I was grinding machine from Germany which obviously is that an official community language I completed you stop instruction manuals in language I can then say that the person who's bringing into the UK your job is to translate these instructions the manufactured now has no legal requirements to do the transmission so if you are behind the scenes are all the machines please ensure that it is in the contract up just to go on a little bit the I'm not used to doing these questions as we go and looking at when we do look at machines are we modify machines are when we manufacture them all even if we just made chain in them that if we do have any issues that we need to address then what we need to look at is the EN standards the European normal normalize relations standards I don't know how many people are using these book the issue is that what it sees in the directive and referred to in few is that machinery manufacture in conformity with specified published European harmonized standards will be please you to comply with the essential help city clubs covered by those standards I'm looking at gadding and reach dismisses
if I go to what the Standard Series then I have met my obligations don't have to do any more all out to do is what the standards is and I just put a few little so that sides understand there's e-type standards apply to all machines is actually only two it takes time and it's now a one is the main one is one called which looks at basic safety designed machinery be taxed on did I call them the when you started see if I'm going to put an emergency stop on that is not meant to stop standard city in a tribal which will tell me what I need to do if I'm going to fool got shall betty's gadding standards if I want to put electricity and do with it Disney and standard full and then we have see text and is where which are specific for machinery tight so if I'm building a rule what that is c-type standard for robot I need to just checked it my rulebook meets that's a type standard because again SeaTac standard mmm give you presumption of compliance with the directive there is a bit discussion going on with this sometimes c-type standards actually do give you full compliance with the Data Book hasn't been resolved yet so we start off with the its I stand is we movies under the beachside standards and then the same time stand the machine specific standard should incorporate the best up to the relevant stunned as the to be to that particular machine and if you looking at standards nearly all EN standards I links to a particular directive for the machinery that active you looking somewhere in this region about six hundred and stealing standards for but I love about that only be so to said you that you would come across on a regular basis example be taxed and is selection of guiding manufacturing got said in a the position you have got to protect for and lower limbs use when I put it because this is just something I I don't really understand responded publishes values to see if he dismisses to prevent danger zones being raised by the human lives a person's up three years a page in the book said it also provides see if this is to prevent danger zone been reached by the lower limbs up this is a fourteen years image in a bull I don't know why we differentiate with a job I've never understood about up and I don't think we employ a lot three-year-olds now the present moment pool however that is the school without sub-standard I'm eight games you send shots which helps you so if you had at danger it hi the danger zone we had a rule what it was swinging round which was you me too high and we had a reach from the defense to the rulebook I amice then if we look across that job its is I had to take the structure has to be . meters high and if we look at that is a little nauseated detectives took his love millimeters should not be used without additional said measures so there's a lot of information in an easy and standards again a European on is a millimeters long so if we going to pull any jobbing on Oct gadding
if we put it less in a millimeters that with down twenty it doesn't comply with what was standards is so all this information is in the standards and the role based on the European average person and he some hoses safe side standards a a cat out at the this probably about SeaTac standards for particular specific machines step after we come probably sent to help the city crime is put together what technical construction which is documentation no support that we could correctly seem out though machine operation equipment the technical file has to be kept for ten years and it is really the only way to demonstrate that you will comply with the essential health and safety requirements and the other provisions of the directive by the way it used to be an issue with the is that for the manufactures security is well see if anybody modifies
When these machines subsequently somebody gets in your head and a he's got a file it shows exactly how that machine was manufactured up just declaration conformity a it just sounded all all the information required visited the Annex A directed the only difference is that we now have to put on the name and address the person in the community who is also tries to compile a technical about it different from the book so technical for every patient machine has to reside in the European Union is not person has to be digest us to be European address
I'll but CE mark it does have specific a that mentions on just a very quick a just to let you know that things are changing from a functional safety for the view we had any in standard - for which was deleted last the remember December last year and these two standards are actually gone be replacements . full I'll and what they allow you to do which never did was to allow you to pull safety through software so that on you so to wire systems that he comported with functional blocks which is very flexible you can added to the collection law will get a safety device obviously the only were complex machines because the hardware from and about system is fairly expensive and that is a system actually trying to a analyze
which one love those to stand is that should be used in which circumstances the data presents a full where what categories thirteen-a introduces performance levels and it looks like the comp order parts as well now not just the type wiring of paving it looks at what the integrity of the comp poured into using and every manufacturer of city Comptroller's is now I want to provide the what's called the empty CD which is that time too dangerous fairly a it's a postage approach former risk assessment identified original allocated performance level devise a system of the texture I we welcome poured into the use what.cd take D this component then pilot is out design and not is fairly complex his fairly time-consuming for the people who have no been introduced to the yes and it is a wrist strap which is similar tonight for all these a few law a variations on these out our one day out that we do around the country that Camilla a some people who call we give a deduction into CE fewer a standards risk assessment obviously in less than an hour there's no law you can actually see it we also have the first so the only that we know of and does University certificate in machinery safety
where the Teesside University actually moderate an award a pop degree in machinery safety a live this year we will be a introduce you to new which university courses which one in electrical machinery safety unwanted functional machinery safety I'm not basically is the end
