EU Machinery Regulation (Regulation (EU) 2023/1230) MR-Art.6_7: High-risk machinery categories and safety components (Articles 6-7 + Annex I)

Article 6 designates the high-risk machinery categories listed in Annex I that are subject to mandatory third-party conformity assessment (because of the level of risk). Annex I categories include circular saws, hand-fed surface planing machines, woodworking thicknessing machines, band-saw machines, chain saws, portable cartridge-operated fixing tools, vehicle servicing lifts, devices to lift persons or persons and goods, removable mechanical transmission devices, AND - critically - safety components incorporating fully or partially self-evolving behaviour using machine learning approaches ensuring safety functions (the AI-safety category). Article 7 defines safety components and brings them within the Regulation scope.
