With reference to the Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC our motorized products (scanning stages, focus drives etc.) fall under the definition of “incomplete machinery”. In the case of incomplete machinery, the Machinery Directive requires the manufacturer to present a Declaration of Incorporation, which specifies all the relevant directives and standards. A printed Declaration of Incorporation, which also lists the serial number of the respective product, is enclosed with every one of our motorized products delivered. Please note that in compliance with the Machinery Directive, our motorized products as incomplete machinery do not have the CE mark.
For our electric/electronic products which are not subject to the Machinery Directive (controllers, operating devices, manual measuring stages with integrated measuring system), we prepare a Declaration of Conformity in compliance with EMC, RoHS and, if necessary, in compliance with the Low Voltage Directive, and attach the CE mark to the product. In compliance with applicable EU directives, our Declarations of Conformity do not have any serial number references and are not generally included with the products. On request, we will be happy to provide the respective Declarations of Conformity for your delivery at any time.
Other regulations sometimes apply for our automated and customer-specific products. We will be happy to inform you about the situation for the respective product on request.
