| 1 | Manufacturer Profile 01 | Certificate required Check certificate scope, issuing body, validity, and manufacturing-site address. | Applicable when required CE is required when the machinery is placed on the EU market and falls under applicable EU legislation. | Evidence required Request enclosed mixing areas, local exhaust ventilation, filter specifications, and maintenance procedures. | Request risk assessment, operating manual, emergency-stop validation, guarding details, and electrical documentation. | Confirm that certificate and technical documents refer to the exact machine model and production site. |
| 2 | Manufacturer Profile 02 | Certificate required ISO 9001 certification demonstrates a quality-management system; it does not certify product performance by itself. | Market-dependent CE marking is not a general quality mark and must be supported by the applicable conformity assessment process. | Evidence required Verify dust capture at charging, transfer, discharge, and bag-opening points. | Check documented risk reduction for rotating shafts, hot surfaces, access doors, and unexpected start-up. | Ask for dust-exposure measurements or engineering calculations where workplace regulations require them. |
| 3 | Manufacturer Profile 03 | Certificate required Verify the certificate against the registrar’s public database when available. | Applicable when required Obtain the EU Declaration of Conformity and list of directives, regulations, and standards used. | Evidence required Confirm airflow, filtration efficiency, pressure-drop monitoring, and safe dust-disposal arrangements. | Review safeguarding, interlocks, control-circuit design, and conformity with relevant machinery-safety requirements. | Ensure the dust-collection system is compatible with the mixer’s operating capacity and material feed rate. |
| 4 | Manufacturer Profile 04 | Certificate required Check whether the certificate covers design, assembly, testing, and after-sales processes. | Conditional CE obligations depend on the destination market, machine configuration, and applicable EU product legislation. | Evidence required Look for sealed conveying paths, negative-pressure extraction, and procedures preventing visible dust release. | Request lockout/tagout instructions, cleaning procedures, inspection intervals, and spare-parts recommendations. | Confirm that cleaning methods do not create secondary airborne dust or unsafe static discharge. |
| 5 | Manufacturer Profile 05 | Certificate required Confirm certificate validity and verify that outsourced processes are controlled within the quality system. | Applicable when required The manufacturer or authorized representative remains responsible for the conformity documentation. | Evidence required Review filtration type, explosion-risk assessment where applicable, grounding, and dust-cleaning controls. | Check technical-file availability, machinery limits, residual-risk warnings, and operator training materials. | Request factory acceptance-test records covering temperature, mixing time, noise, vibration, and safety functions. |
| 6 | Manufacturer Profile 06 | Certificate required ISO 9001 should be treated as a management-system qualification, not as proof of CE compliance. | Conditional Verify whether the supplied equipment is a complete machine, partly completed machine, or integrated production line. | Evidence required Check extraction performance at normal and maximum loading conditions. | Review electrical schematics, protective-bonding tests, control-panel ratings, and emergency-stop circuit tests. | Confirm responsibility for conformity when the mixer is integrated with feeders, coolers, or downstream equipment. |
| 7 | Manufacturer Profile 07 | Certificate required Verify audit status, certificate expiry date, and the exact legal entity named on the certificate. | Applicable when required CE documentation should be supplied in the required language for the destination market. | Evidence required Request documented inspection of ducts, filters, seals, extraction fans, and dust accumulation points. | Check guarding clearances, access control, restart prevention, and instructions for abnormal operating conditions. | Require a clear list of included and excluded safety functions before contract approval. |
| 8 | Manufacturer Profile 08 | Certificate required Review quality objectives, nonconformance control, corrective actions, and final inspection records. | Not a quality mark CE marking indicates a conformity claim under applicable EU rules; it is not an independent ranking of manufacturers. | Evidence required Confirm that operators receive documented procedures for spill response, filter replacement, and safe housekeeping. | Request risk assessment based on the actual mixer layout, operating temperature, chemicals, and material formulation. | Verify that safety measures remain effective after installation, commissioning, and process changes. |
| 9 | Manufacturer Profile 09 | Certificate required Check traceability of motors, gearboxes, sensors, valves, and safety-related components. | Conditional Confirm the applicable conformity route before relying on any CE symbol shown in catalogues or quotations. | Evidence required Evaluate dust-control design for charging, weighing, conveying, mixing, discharge, and maintenance activities. | Review functional testing of interlocks, overload protection, temperature monitoring, and emergency stopping. | Require commissioning records and operator training sign-off for the delivered configuration. |
| 10 | Manufacturer Profile 10 | Certificate required Confirm that quality controls cover installation support, service response, and replacement-part identification. | Applicable when required Obtain the signed Declaration of Conformity, user instructions, and applicable standards list before shipment. | Evidence required Verify practical dust measurements, extraction alarms, filter-maintenance access, and housekeeping controls. | Check residual-risk information, noise data, maintenance isolation points, and periodic safety inspection requirements. | Use independent inspection or a documented factory acceptance test for high-capacity or customized systems. |
