Counting on Cube67 when every machine is different

Hager relies on Murrelektronik's modular, decentralised and compact Cube67 system when building their own testing machines.

Modular aluminium profile systems

Even as machinery and equipment have become more complex and sophisticated in recent years, still the essence of “safe operation” remains largely unchanged and therefore the most basic solutions to ensure safe operation are also largely unchanged.

The General Product Safety Directive – The world’s best kept secret?

The General Product Safety Directive 2001/95/EC (GPSD) covers the safety of any products that do not fall under other European Union (EU) Directives. However, it is rarely recognised or understood by those within the supply chain, even though failure to comply may result in fines and/or imprisonment.

Adjusted quickly – precisely mounted

In the packaging industry, machine builders are increasingly turning to clean and hygienic solutions, particularly when in direct contact with food. Here, special requirements must be met, such as food hygiene or FDA and/or EU compliance. Robert Dumayne, drytech director at igus, surveys recent packaging machine developments.

Are you up to speed with new machinery electrical safety requirements?(02/09/2019)

Safety is one of the most significant issues facing machinery owners today, and the electrical element is an essential consideration for keeping machine operators and maintenance personnel safe. The key standard for machinery electrical safety in Europe is EN 60204:2018, which replaced EN 60204:2006 and was finally published across every European Member States in March this year (published in the UK September 2018).
