CNC Wafer Edge Profiling Machine from Japan
The CNC Wafer Edge Profiling Machine is a numerically controlled machine tool that profiles wafer edges to prevent chipping and ensure handling compatibility in semiconductor fabrication processes. Its cutting-off function on semiconductor wafers places it under tariff item 8461.50.10 as an NC sawing or cutting-off machine.

Import Tips
• Determine whether the machine's primary function is profiling (which may be considered grinding) rather than sawing, as this could affect classification
• Provide the CBSA with technical documentation showing the machine's cutting mechanism and NC control
• Verify if the machine qualifies for duty-free entry under the Information Technology Agreement if used in semiconductor production
