BIS Certification for Vibration Machines IS 10080

BIS Certification for Vibration Machines is given to assure that the products are of Indian quality, safety, and performance in accordance with the provisions of IS 10080. The certification ensures that the vibration machines are of the necessary standards in terms of the quality of the construction, mechanical safety, durability and reliability in the functioning. 

What does ISI Mark Certification implies?

Indian Standard applying to Vibration Machines is the Indian Standard 10080 that stipulates the necessary quality, safety and performance standards of vibration equipment. The standard addresses parameters in respect of design, construction, frequency of vibration, amplitude, mechanical strength, safety considerations and marking.

Goods that are compliant with the IS 10080 are of consistent operation, safety and durability. Any manufacturer who manages to fulfill these requirements can use the ISI Mark that will give the customers, contractors and regulatory organizations confidence that the vibration machines are certified, safe, and reliable. 

What is the significance of the ISI mark on products?

BIS Certification offers a variety of advantages to vibration machines such as:

1. Enhanced Quality of the Products : Compliance with IS 10080 assures this and reduces the possibility of equipment failure or unsafe operation.
2. Regulatory Compliance : It is required to make and sell vibration machines in India; failure to do so may result in fines or prohibition of products.
3. Market Trust & Acceptance : Contractors, government departments, and industrial buyers prefer vibration machines that have ISI-marks.
4. Competitive Advantage : Certified products are preferred in government tenders, infrastructure projects and large-scale industrial contracts.
5. Standardized Testing :  Standardized testing guarantees a high level of stability in the vibration output, mechanical strength, and safety of the operator. 

What is IS 10080?

IS 10080 provides technical and quality specifications of vibration machines such as:

• Materials and construction specifications.
• Frequency and amplitude of vibration limitations.
• Mechanical strength and life cycle.
• Operators safety provisions.
• Testing methods Performance tests.
• Marking, packaging and operating instructions.  

IS 10080 requires compliance to receive a BIS Registration and ISI Mark of vibration machines. When manufacturers meet such requirements as per the ISI mark, they can use the ISI Mark that guarantees the customer, the contractor and the regulatory bodies that the Vibration Machine is safe, certified and fit to be used in the industry.
