AS PRODUCER OF FACILITIES
AS OPERATOR OF FACILITIES
Plant manufacturers usually assume responsibility for the creation and verification of the CE marking.
We advise plant manufacturers to adopt the CE marking and technical documentation of the plant in the interests of their customers and to gain a competitive advantage. We also recommend studying the special regulations, e.g. in the food and pharmaceutical sectors, in advance and taking them into account during construction in order to avoid additional work in proving conformity. Remember that correct operating and assembly instructions in the local language of the place of use are a central component of product conformity.
The experts at easyCE will be happy to support you as a subcontractor with the CE marking and technical documentation of your projects.
Operators always have the obligation to provide CE proof and usually also the responsibility for creating the CE marking.
Operators may only use CE-marked production and manufacturing systems, as they must guarantee their employees that they are working on compliant and safe machines. Conformity must often be proven to inspectors, particularly in the food and pharmaceutical sectors. This also applies to used and old systems. To ensure a streamlined adaptation of the CE marking, we advise operators to only use CE-marked components for self-built or expanded systems. If the entire system is manufactured by a commissioned system manufacturer, we recommend having the CE marking and complete technical documentation created by the same company.
The experts at easyCE are available to answer any questions you may have regarding conformity and will be happy to assist you.
Only with easyCE, CE marking is worry-free

Frequently asked questions
Which special machines and production systems (interlinked systems) require CE marking?
In summary, all products that fall within the scope of one of the 26 CE directives and regulations must undergo a conformity assessment procedure and require CE marking.
In most cases, production plants contain moving mechanical parts and are powered by electricity. Therefore, the Machinery Directive as well as the EMC-Directives and mostly the Low voltage directive to apply. The special machines and production systems that require CE marking include in particular:
- Robot systems
- Interlinked production plants and production lines in all industries, e.g. interlinked production plants for the chemical, pharmaceutical and automotive industries
- Interfaces and automation between different parts of the system
- Laser systems
- Test benches
- Blast furnaces and foundries
- Tunnelbohrmaschinen und jegliche Maschinen für den Bergbau (hier ist meist zusätzlich die ATEX-Richtlinie für explosionsgefährdete Bereiche anzuwenden)
- Jegliche Art von Förderbändern
- Tunnel boring machines and all machines for mining (in most cases the ATEX directive for potentially explosive atmospheres also applies here)
- Special machine tools
- Custom-made products
What is a "linked system" and a "set of machines"?
A "linked installation" (sometimes also called a "complex installation") is often used as a colloquial term for the "assembly of machines" under the Machinery Directive.
Such systems are often found in production lines in manufacturing companies, but can also occur on a small scale. Robot-assisted systems usually also represent a set of machines. A set of machines is subject to CE marking.
What are the two main characteristics of an interconnected system or set of machines?
A set of machines is described by two main characteristics:
- There must be a production-related connection. This means that the machines are designed to work together towards a common goal (for example, the manufacture of a product) and that the machines have a common, higher-level control system.
- There must also be a safety-related connection. This describes the fact that a hazard in one machine could lead to hazards in the other parts of the linked system. An assessment must therefore be machine-specific and individual. Please contact us if you need support.
What are the consequences when individual machines represent a group of machines?
The Machinery Directive treats all machines as a separate machine. They must therefore undergo the conformity procedure again and receive the CE marking.
The manufacturer of the linked system is responsible for this. The Machinery Directive also provides for further measures, such as a common emergency stop device.
Who is the manufacturer of a chained system?
The role of the manufacturer of a linked system can be played by different people.
Most of the time, interlinked systems are created in manufacturing companies unknowingly by purchasing various machines and then having them work together. In this case, the manufacturing company that arranges and operates the individual machines in this way is considered the manufacturer of the interlinked system. It therefore also assumes responsibility and liability for possible injuries to people if they are harmed by a hazard arising from this interlinking. The manufacturer is obliged to ensure the safety of the machine by carrying out a new conformity procedure. If an interlinked system is designed and manufactured for sale to a customer, the individual machines are often purchased from different manufacturers. In this case, the role of the manufacturer (and therefore also the responsibility) can be taken on by a manufacturer of a component of the interlinked system. However, it is also possible for the customer (i.e. the buyer of the interlinked system) to take on the role of the manufacturer. This question must be clarified before the sale.
What documentation do I (as a manufacturer) need if I create a linked system or set of machines, e.g. in production?
We will be happy to support you in preparing this documentation!
- The conformity procedure must be repeated for a linked system or set of machines. A risk assessment must therefore be carried out again. This differs from the risk assessments for individual machines because, for the set of machines, the interfaces of the machines and the hazards due to events in other areas of the set of machines must also be assessed.
- The linked system or set of machines requires its own nameplate.
- The linked system or set of machines requires its own declaration of conformity from the manufacturer.
- New technical documentation and operating instructions are also required.
Is CE marking required for hydraulic and pneumatic special machines and systems?
Yes, hydraulic and pneumatic products are considered as machines according to the Machinery Directive. The conformity assessment procedure must therefore be carried out and a CE marking must be affixed.
