CE Certification for Filling Machines

Filling machines belong to a small part of packaging machinery. From the perspective of packaging materials, they can be divided into liquid filling machines, paste filling machines, powder filling machines, and granule filling machines. In terms of the degree of automation of production, they are divided into Semi-automatic filling machine and automatic filling production line. Filling machine can be divided into normal pressure filling machine, pressure filling machine, liquid filling machine, oil filling machine, paste filling machine, sauce filling machine, granular slurry filling machine according to the filling principle. Powder filling machine, vat water filling machine and vacuum filling machine. If such products are exported to EU countries and sold in the EU market, they must apply for EU mandatory CE certification. ：There are so many mineral water filling machine manufacturers but how do you know which are qualified?

CE Approved Machinery Directive

CE Approved Machinery Directive New Machinery Directive: 2006/42 / EC Machinery CE certification is a mechanical equipment product safety certification based on the EU Machinery Directive 2006/42 / EC. Only complete technical documents and CE marking in accordance with the Machinery Directive can successfully enter the EU market. The European Parliament and the European Council have officially adopted the new version of the Machinery Directive (2006/42 / EC) on May 17, 2006, and the mandatory implementation began on December 29, 2009. Compared with the old machinery directive 98/37 / EC, the new directive has some new requirements in terms of scope of application, boundaries with other directives, market surveillance, safety components, conformity assessment procedures, and basic health and safety requirements. It’s widely accepted by china drinking water filling machine suppliers.

CE certification standards for filling machines
