Event details
The new EU Machinery Regulation comes into force in January 2027. While an EU law, it has consequences for how machines are designed, documented, and sold for any machine builder selling into the European market.
Meanwhile, OEMs continue to face rising energy costs, supply chain uncertainty, and increasing pressure to deliver safe, efficient, sustainable, and compliant machines.
Join Matthew Hallas, Business Development Manager for OEM Drives at ABB, along with expert guest speakers, as they explore some of the key issues. Talking points will include what the new regulation means in practice, the steps machine builders should be taking to prepare, and how modern automation and motion technologies can help support compliance while delivering commercial advantages.
Topics covered will include:
- The market pressures shaping the machine building sector in the UK and elsewhere
- The key changes introduced in the new Machinery Regulation, and their implications for OEMs selling into the European market
- How motors, drives, and control technologies can support safer, more efficient machine designs
- The business case for investing in higher-efficiency motion solutions, with focus on lifecycle cost and payback
- Practical guidance and tips on streamlining compliance while maintaining market access
- There will also be opportunities to put questions to the expert panel in a live Q&A session
All attendees will receive a CPD certificate.
