# Cooking Robot Certificates: Does the Test Report Cover the Model You Will Import?

How to read a CB report, CE paperwork and RoHS results for a cooking robot, and which private-label changes put that coverage at risk.

Ask any supplier for certificates and you will get a folder. What matters is narrower: does each document cover the exact model, voltage version and configuration in your container, and is it accepted in the market where you sell?

A certificate logo on a product page tells you none of that. The model list, rated values and standard edition printed inside the report do.

## What each document proves

These papers are not interchangeable. Ask for the full report, not the one-page certificate: the certificate is a summary, the report shows what was tested and on which samples.

| Document | What it covers | What to ask for |
| --- | --- | --- |
| IECEE CB test certificate + CB test report | Electrical safety to IEC 60335-1 plus the Part 2 standards for the appliance: IEC 60335-2-14 for kitchen machines and, for a machine that heats, usually IEC 60335-2-15 | The complete report, with amendments and the national differences assessed |
| EMC test report | Electromagnetic emissions and immunity | The model list and the standards applied |
| RoHS test report | Restricted substances in materials and components | The test date and which parts were sampled |
| Materials / chemical test reports | Materials in contact with food | Which parts were tested, against which regulation |
| Declaration of conformity | The manufacturer’s legal statement; in the EU, a brand owner selling under its own name counts as the manufacturer | Who signs it, and whether your model name is on it |

## Five checks before you rely on a report

Do these on the documents themselves, not on a summary in an email.

- Model name: your model must be on the cover or in the model list. A report for a “similar” model does not carry over.
- Rated values: voltage, frequency and power must match the version you order. A 220–240 V report says nothing about a 100–120 V unit.
- Plug and cord: the tested plug should be the one your market uses.
- Standard edition and date: some markets and retailers want current editions, so an older report may need an update.
- Applicant, manufacturer and factory: the report lists them separately, and none of them has to be the company you pay; a group’s export or sales company is common. Ask the supplier to show how each name links to the company you pay and to the factory that will build your order. If nobody can show that link, you are buying through an intermediary; find out who will answer for the documents later.

## What Kanench can send for your model

Our company portfolio includes IECEE CB test certificates, EMC, RoHS and electrical safety compliance certificates, a CE attestation of conformity, an EC type examination certificate, CCC certification, SGS verifications, and materials and chemical testing reports. Each certificate or test report applies to the models listed in that document.

For model-specific documents, tell us the model, the voltage version and the destination country. KC1-B, KC5, KC7, KC8 and KC9 are listed in 100–120 V and 220–240 V versions. You can also arrange a factory inspection to review our production capabilities.

## Private-label changes that can break coverage

Your logo on the housing rarely changes how the machine is tested. Your brand name and model number still have to appear in the paperwork, usually through a report amendment handled by the lab that issued it.

Anything the safety tests depend on is different: the motor, heating element, cord or plug, control board, plastics or seals that touch food, or an added Wi-Fi module. Expect retesting. Agree before the purchase order who arranges and pays for it, and put the extra weeks into your launch plan.

## Your market: the US

Most US retailers, marketplaces and insurers expect a listing from a Nationally Recognized Testing Laboratory recognized by OSHA, such as UL or Intertek (ETL), typically to UL 1026 or UL 982. A CB report can shorten that process; it does not replace it. If you sell under your own brand, ask the lab how your name is added to the manufacturer's listing.

If the model has Wi-Fi or Bluetooth, the radio needs FCC equipment authorization. Any other federal or state requirement for your product code, confirm with your customs broker before you order.

Before you pay the deposit, put the report's model list, rated voltage, plug type and manufacturer name next to your purchase order. Any line that doesn't match gets fixed now, while it is still the supplier's problem and not your customs broker's.
