MR 2023/1230
MR 2023/1230 Seminar
The seminar is offered exclusively in German.
The seminar ‘MR 2023/1230 in Production’ covers the key requirements of the new European Machinery Regulation (EU) 2023/1230 and its implications for companies in the machinery, plant and production sectors. The focus is on the changes compared with the previous Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC, as well as the resulting requirements for manufacturers, integrators, suppliers and operators of machinery.
Participants will gain a practical overview of topics such as conformity assessment, technical documentation, CE marking, cyber security and the growing importance of artificial intelligence in machinery and plant. At the same time, the legal framework for companies in Switzerland and the European market will be clearly explained.
