This book describes the prerequisites for the placing on the
market and the safe use of machinery in compliance with the relevant EU
Directives, especially the Machinery Directive 2006/42. It provides readers
with high-level knowledge concerning the Essential Health and Safety
Requirements (EHSR) that machinery must fulfill. The approach and principles of
the Machinery Directive were most recently made worldwide acknowledged in the ILO code of practice on safe machinery, released in 2013. The book addresses
that code, as well as providing valuable insight into other EU Product and
Workplace legislation.
Focusing on the key aspect of safe machinery, the “machinery
safety risk assessment”, which allows readers to better understand the more
difficult aspects of risk assessments, the book equips readers to tackle
problems at the manufacturing stage and in different use scenarios, introducing
them to risk reduction techniques and functional safety aspects.
