2013-01-09 Thread Crane, Lauren
As many know, the LVD is in the process of being recast for alignment with the New Legislative Framework (NLF). The Commission proposed text, (COM(2011) 773 final), calls for what looks like a unique equipment identification number do be provided in the Declaration of Conformity (DoC). The sam

1. Science = theoretical; Engineering = empirical 2. Concur with Mr. Nute. Have empirical data indicating hammer test not consistent, and that the steel ball test results are repeatable for similar construction and test condition. 3. There is no reason to deviate from the standard because you are o

Hi Sudakar: No, the tests are not the same because the energy is not the only parameter. One must consider both the impact area and the elasticity of the collision. The ball is 50 mm diameter while the impact hammer is 20 mm diameter. In some cases, the 20 mm sphere will contact a part whi
