Plastic machinery CE certification CE certification knowledge introduction
Plastic machinery CE certification
As the plastic machinery only a national plastic machinery inspection agency, shouldering the guide industry development is heavy duty, duty it is necessary to use the center of professional technical ability, for the vast number of machine production enterprises introduce safety certification knowledge, so as to promote the machine industry to overcome technical barriers to trade, enhance international competition ability. Considering the current most enterprises need safety certification for European CE safety certification, therefore the following should be introduced. CE Conformit Europ EME ( French European conformity assessment ) abbreviation, is the European Union special mandatory safety certificate. The EU market assessment if the product can flow basis, is whether the product has affixed CE mark. Once the product is add CE mark, it shows that the product conforms to the basic public security, health, environmental protection and the protection of the consumer demand. The EU now has 27 member countries: Belgium, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Germany, Denmark, Greece, Spain, Estonia, France, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Malta, Holland, Luxemburg, Austria, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Finland, Sweden and the United Kingdom, and eagerly hope to join the European Union in Turkey.
Up to now, the EU issued 22 orders ( orders can be defined as the European law, higher than that of each member of the technical regulations ), the products are: electronic and electrical products, mechanical equipment, pressure vessels, toys, building products, personal protective equipment, medical equipment, gas stove, pressure equipment. Plastic machinery by the artificial feeding of plastic injection or compression molding machine because of its high degree of risk by EU Machinery Directive as dangerous machinery, must by Notified Body ( notified body ) to implement EC after passing the test can be posted CE logo and sold in the European Union to use.
Self proclaimed: is the enterprise through their own testing equipment, according to the relevant European Union directives and standards on his company's products were tested and improved, and in his name to his certificate, at the same time to prepare the necessary technical documents and preserved for later related the European Union view. Summary: with the self proclaimed forms of access to CE certificate, the certificate to come easy, but the future is to take great risks of enterprises. For domestic production enterprises, self proclaimed credentials in the market on the effectiveness of very low. Is generally used only in low risk products. Third party certification (certificate authority without authorized ) certification of disadvantage: Certificate in European markets including the customs do not admit this certificate, that is to say that the effect of certificate is also extremely low, later if product quality problems lead to consequences, the enterprises take more responsibility, not authorized institutions take less responsibility.
Third party certification ( certification body authorized by the EU ): is the authorized institutions ( such as SGS, EVPU certification institutions ), through them to test concurrent certificate, this model is the CE certification in the highest certificate mode, high efficiency, the EU regulations on mechanical part the first chapter machinery applicable scope, put on the market and freedom the circulation of the fourth wrote that "the EU Member States should not prohibit, restrict or hinder the authorized third party audit of the products in the territory of the market and put to use." According to EU regulations, the contents are described, by the authorized third party hair side effect of certificate is quite high. And if after the certification of products in the use of process quality problems, the authorised third party must undertake the important responsibility.
Due to our production machine, the feeding mode are automatic and manual loading of the two models, but in the materials on a little way using manipulator automatic feeding machine, thus the control computer is also a corresponding manual, semi-automatic, automatic three state selection, and the machine is belongs to dangerous machinery. But some certification or consulting company do not have to do machine mechanical hazards authorized qualification, is used in two ways to cheat the machine manufacturing enterprises:
( a ), help machine enterprises to do self declaration, certification through consulting services, helping enterprises to do self declaration, but such claims difficult through the EU customs, certificate validity range;
( two), the machine is defined as a dangerous machinery, certification companies use presses technical personnel are usually considered automatic status is automatic feeding point, confuse the machinery directive of the automatic feeding machine definition, will limit for non dangerous machinery, leading to machine enterprise future export products are required to configure the mechanical hand and specific only one state of the automatic machine computer, causing manufacturers to export difficulties. Therefore, in and any certification body before signing up should be to the EU public website ( http: / / ec.europa.eu ) on the confirmation of the certification body of the machine product authorization. Because the machine is a large mechanical and electrical products, to comply with EU standards would be needed in the electrical, hydraulic, mechanical and other many aspects according to the standard are correspondingly improved, and most business machine technical staff of standard unfamiliar, extremely need to be familiar with the standard and presses the professional knowledge of the technical experts to guide, however due to the certification institution is generally assumed to provide standard the task, and many new advisory bodies and few presses such as professional and technical personnel, so it is difficult for enterprises to make targeted design guidance, to put forward a reasonable economic improvement plan, which leads to certification cycle is long, certification of poor quality.
At the same time as many certification company workers job-hopping, technical inheritance, certification inspectors also can't grasp the standard, resulting in too tight or too loose phenomenon inspection. While strict enterprises will lead to rising costs, difficult operation; too loose can not meet EU requirements, thereby being the severe penalty possible. So the selection of a high level of technology, with the corresponding electrical, hydraulic, mechanical engineer certification, advisory body will be effectively shorten certification cycle, improve the quality of authentication, reduce the potential risk of trade.| Updated:2011.12.19 Source: Clicks:
