Hi Nick,

we have a "Market Access Guide - Machine Safety Requirements in Brazil" in
our compliance database.

Brief description:

1. Currently no mandatory machine safety requirements are exist. Reference:
Curt Miller, Brazil Machinery Builders´Association (ABIMAQ) and "How to
export to Brazil (Practical Guide to the Brazilian Importing Process)"
http://www.braziltradenet.gov.br/ARQUIVOS/Publicacoes/Manuais/PUBCEXBrasilI.
pdf 
2. Only OSHA regulations are mandatory (similar to 29 CFR 1910 in the
states). Therefore an "inspection" before "putting into service" is
mandatory.
3. Minimum "state of the art" for the importer: European Machinery
Directive, CE-Marking will be accepted. Therefore the following standards
are a good choice: ISO 14121-1, ISO 13849-1 or IEC 62061, IEC 60204-1, ISO
12100-1/-2, ISO 13850, ...
4. Brazil will publish "machine safety regulations" within the next 1-2
years (wait and see...).
5. Standards: Associacao Brasileira de Normas Technicas (ABNT), ABNT/CB-04
Maquinas e equipamentos mecanicos (Standards for machines and mechanical
equipment). But normally this standards haven´t a practical acceptation.

I hope this information are useful. If you need more details contact me
directly, please.

Does anyone know what (if any) are the mandatory requirements for a 
piece of food processing machinery (with electrical controls) in 
Brazil?
