ESV strongly advocates a preventive approach. By investing at the early stages, injuries can be prevented and risks significantly reduced. An important part of this approach is compiling a solid, well structured Technical Documentation.

When your Technical Documentation is properly organized, you have essential documentation available should anything occur. The Technical Documentation serves as evidence that the machine or installation has been built in accordance with the Machinery Regulation 2023/2030 and the relevant directives.

Components of the Technical Documentation

  • Risk assessment
  • Documentation of the applied requirements of the Machinery Regulation
  • Clear photos documenting the delivered machine
  • Standards research
  • Performance Level calculation (PL)
  • User manual
  • Clear and structured schematics
  • Drawings
  • Calculations
  • EU Declaration of Conformity
  • Supplier declarations

Compiling a complete and compliant Technical Documentation requires specific knowledge of the Machinery Regulation, related directives, and applicable standards. Of course, you may carry out this work yourself, but professional review is strongly recommended. You can also choose to outsource the entire task—including gathering all required supplier declarations—to ESV’s experienced consultants. Over the years, we have prepared a large number of Technical Documentations for a wide variety of machines and installations, ranging from small and simple to large and highly complex.
