With the new EU Machinery Regulation (EU) 2023/1230, the European Commission is setting new standards for the protection of people and technology. TÜV Rheinland, a provider of testing, inspection and certification services, is now playing a key role in this: the EU Commission has officially recognized the company as a Notified Body for testing and certification according to the new Machinery Regulation. In this way, TÜV Rheinland is able to provide comprehensive support to companies on their way into the future of the industry in compliance with the standards.
The regulation explicitly applies to machinery and related products such as interchangeable equipment, safety components, load-handling equipment, chains, ropes, belts, cardan shafts and partly completed machinery.
TÜV Rheinland offers manufacturers support in the form of testing and certification services in accordance with the new health and safety requirements. By preparing early, manufacturers can avoid downtime and additional costs and get their machines onto the European market faster. Experts of TÜV Rheinland provide support with tailored testing procedures and ensure that companies can effectively implement the new requirements.
