CE conformity for Offset printing press

For Offset printing press, the applicable CE scope is determined from intended use, energy sources, safety architecture and target market. The risk assessment, technical file, testing and conformity route must be verified against the actual model.

CE conformity for Offset printing press — Product-specific conformity guide
Printing patternSingle or multi-colored offset units to feed the plate
Dangerous movePlated-rubber coating-press cylinders and ink staircase seals
Frequent tasksMolding, washing, polishing and compression
Optional scopeUV/IR drying, dust spraying, lacquer and automatic stacking
Direct response to the scope

CE conformity for Offset printing press — Define the product boundary first

The access point and number of control links between single-color layer offset and multi-unit high-speed line vary greatly. Plate emulators, chain conveyor, printing cylinders, ink-staircase and exit stacking system are processed to the machine border.

If the hand wash is done with a hand cloth, the probability of the hand being pulled to the point of grasp is very high. The automatic washing mechanism is also evaluated in terms of fluid leakage, incorrect programming and maintenance access.

The addition of UV, IR or hot air dryer; optical radiation, high temperature, ozone, fire and ventilation headers to the file. The dust spraying system can cause the working exposure and the possibility of explosive atmosphere in the appropriate material. The electronic poisoning control, servo drives and network connections of the machine are entered into EMC evaluation; the software version for safety is stored in a traceable manner.

Product profile

Technical features that change the evaluation

The following data shows why even models with the same product name can change the path of conformity.

Frequent tasksMolding, washing, polishing and compression
Optional scopeUV/IR drying, dust spraying, lacquer and automatic stacking
Risk architecture

The main dangers to be addressed in the file

The protective, control and verification approach shall be based on the actual product cycle.

01

Don 't pull over to the cellar

The hand, cloth or clothing can fit between the rotating cylinders.

02

Moving in shapeshifting

The handle or cylinder may be held in hand when the plate or cylinder turns unexpectedly.

03

The dish-feeder function

The suction head creates a pile of paper and a mobile platform crushing area, protecting access to maintenance points.

04

Chemical washing

The cleaning steam, skin contact or leakage may affect the worker.

05

UV or hot drying

Radiation leakage, lamp breaking, hot surface and ozone pose a danger during maintenance.

06

Starting that doesn 't appear on the long machine

Remote launch can be performed while one operator is operating on another unit, with regional re-installation, alert and vision conditions determined.

The conditional law matrix

When will the regulation take effect?

A single product name doesn't give the same answer for all models.

The subjectThe situationProduct-based evaluation
The machine's layoutYES, YESIn Turkey, 2006/42/AT is applied for offset printing; the next national compliance is confirmed on the date of the first market supply or first service of the offset machine. The printing and stacking mechanisms are evaluated.
EMCIT 'S A MESS .EMC scope is assessed in terms of the intended environment; driver and communication patterns affect test requirements.
LVDNO , NOT AT ALL .The LVD is not applied to machinery as a separate directive; electrical safety objectives are met within the scope of machinery legislation.
ATEXIT 'S A MESS .The flammable washing liquid, lacquer or powder is evaluated for intended use in which explosive atmospheres are created.
PEDNO , NOT AT ALL .The standard offset printing process is not pressure equipment; the coverage is re-checked when there is a special auxiliary system.
Optical radiationIT 'S A MESS .The leakage, access and maintenance exposure is examined in the model with a UV or IR drying unit.

Standard and verification approach

  • EN 1010-1: The printing and paper-making machines provide the common safety requirements of the family.
  • EN 1010-2: It is used in printing and labeling machines for the staircase, setting and drying risk specifications.
  • EN ISO 12100: It collects the production, washing, mold modification and decommissioning phases in risk assessment.
  • EN ISO 13855: It helps to relate the sensing order and protective position to the measured duration of the position.
  • EN ISO 13849-1 and -2: Restricted motion, correcting the performance of the cover lock and safe position functions.
  • EN 60204-1: The electrical equipment is used for feeding, motor protection, control and test materials.
Important distinction

CE conformity for Offset printing press — Product conformity is a separate study.

ISO management system certification does not replace product-specific risk analysis, test evidence and compliance file.

The compliance work plan

In what order will the technical preparation proceed?

Unit and option record

The printing towers, feeder, dryer, paint and outlet systems are listed in serial configuration.

Setting and cleaning task analysis

The molding, rubber covering, ladder washing, sampling and compression are reviewed.

Protection and mode design

The caps are adjusted according to the risk outcome, limited speed, holding operation, reinstallation and restart warning.

Test and measure

The time of operation, electricity, safety circuit, UV/heat and, if necessary, EMC evidence are completed.

Technical delivery

The molding instructions, chemical limits, statement and label are matched to the final machine.

Product records to search for in the technical file

  • Location of machine and printing unit
  • Risk assessment
  • The details of the safety-protection
  • Electrical and pneumatic schemes
  • Definition of the security mode function
  • Duration and verification records
  • UV-IR or ATEX scope
  • Electrical and functional tests
  • Form-out-maintenance instructions
  • In Turkey, 2006/42/AT requires an AT Statement of Conformity in the offset file. For offset, the EU/AEA includes 2006/42/EC on 19 hob 2027; the offset record uses the AT/EC Statement of Conformity. This offset unit is applied to the EU Statement of Conformity from 20 hob 2027 (EU) 2023/1230.

They 're the entries for a healthy offer .

  • Number of color and print units
  • Maximum speed and plate size
  • Feed-out automation
  • Laundry chemicals
  • Options for UV-IR-lac
  • Control and security architecture
  • Target market with existing tests

The number of units, speed, drying technology, automatic washing, safety mode and test record evaluation time are determined.

Frequently Asked Questions

CE conformity for Offset printing press — Technical answers about

Is it okay to clean the stairs with a towel?

The manufacturer must design and verify a safe washing or special limited movement method.

What speed is safe in setting mode?

There is no single universal speed, and the hazardous movement, access, control shape and product standard limits are all evaluated together.

What can't a UV dryer cover on the printing line?

The unit document is a useful input; the protective, exhaust, control and emergency stand-by interface with the press is also examined in the final system.

Can the paper stick be removed without opening the protector?

Design must make this possible; if access is required, dangerous movement is safely stopped and restarting is prevented.

Is the dust spray system ATEX?

The properties of the powder are determined by its density, volume, and the source of the substance.

Does the printing software change the CE file when it's updated?

If the update affects speed, movement, protective or security function, the risk analysis and verification records shall be updated.
