Dave Yes.
A manufacturer may well (will really) need some form of QA system in place to assure conformity of series production, but FQA per Annex X, that is one which is approved by a Machinery Directive Notified Body, is only required for products identified in Annex IV (and only when FQA option is being followed). Regards Charlie -----Original Message----- From: Nyffenegger, Dave [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: 30 April 2014 16:02 To: [email protected] Subject: [PSES] Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC Hi folks, Article 12-3 of the directive states that for all products identified in Annex IV one of the following is required- Assessment of conformity per Annex VIII, Examination procedure per Annex IX plus Annex VIII point 3, or Full quality assurance procedure per Annex X. My understanding of the directive is apart from this there is no requirement to have a full quality assurance procedure in place. Is that correct? thanks David P.
