Is it necessary to have an “A0/A1 large-scale engineering printing, copying, and plotting machine” to apply for a new design certificate (D1/D2)?
Thread Content
Our company plans to obtain new certifications (D1/D2). According to TSG R1001, necessary design equipment is required, with a 100% computer-based drawing output rate. Is it essential to have large-scale printing and copying machines capable of producing A0 and A1 size drawings? If it must be installed, what brand is generally used, and what is the price range? Do I need to buy a photo printer too? Is the other one next to it a photo drying machine?
No need; it’s an outsourced task, just one contract is required.
Our office only has A3 printers, and the Class D certificate renewal was also approved.
Do we still need to renew it upstairs? Are you a manufacturing factory? Don’t manufacturers provide large drawings to the workshop? In that case, outsourcing the production of large-scale images isn’t it a waste of time?
The key is how to understand the “computer drawing rate”.
It’s not necessary; one can go out and print it. There’s even no need for a subcontracting agreement, as there are plenty of people in the streets who can do this work
