Machinery Directive (2006/42/EC)
The Machinery Directive (2006/42/EC) is a key European regulation that ensures industrial machinery is designed, manufactured, and operated with the highest level of safety. It applies to a wide range of machines used in manufacturing, processing, construction, and automation industries. The main goal of this directive is to reduce risks associated with mechanical hazards, moving parts, electrical systems, and operational failures.
At Accurex, we provide complete compliance support for the Machinery Directive, helping manufacturers and exporters ensure their machines meet essential health and safety requirements before entering the European market. This includes risk assessment, technical documentation review, safety analysis, and conformity verification. Proper compliance ensures that machinery operates safely under normal and fault conditions, protecting operators and end users from potential hazards.
Compliance with this directive is mandatory for most industrial machines sold in the EU. It requires manufacturers to follow harmonized standards, maintain technical files, and issue a Declaration of Conformity. Achieving compliance not only ensures legal market access but also improves product reliability, customer trust, and brand reputation.
