2. Comparison of standard frameworks

Standard dimensions	GB/T 43734—2024	Compared with old standards
Mechanical safety requirements	New requirements for protective device design, specifying that the distance of head protection devices is ≥50mm	The specific protective distance is not specified
Electrical safety standards	Strictly comply with the requirements of GB4706.1 and GB4706.38	Only basic electrical safety specifications need to be met
Cleaning and hygiene requirements	New easy-to-clean design requirements, clarifying that the surface roughness is ≤16μm	No specific cleaning standards are involved

Case analysis:A company optimized the design of the mixer head and controlled the surface roughness of the product area within 16μm, significantly improving the cleanability of the equipment.

3. Implementation suggestions

1. Manufacturer:Strictly follow the standard requirements for product design and production, and focus on protective devices and electrical safety performance.
2. Testing agency:Strengthen type test management to ensure that the equipment meets all the requirements of the items in Table 2.
3. User unit:Operate, clean and maintain in accordance with the requirements of the manual, and check the equipment status regularly.
