  • VG 4 Data Sheets

    The notified bodies for the Machinery Directive regularly come together in working groups set up by the European Commission to harmonize the testing and certifying of the machines mentioned in Annex IV. For our industry these are injection moulding machines and compression presses with manual loading and unloading. The results of the relevant working group (VG 4) are published in so called "Data Sheets". They can be useful for machines' designers when deviating from the harmonized standards EN 201 of EN 289.

    VG 4 Data Sheets in accordance with the new Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC.
