CNC Variable Geometry Bending Roll
A computer numerically controlled (CNC) bending roll with variable geometry rolls for precise cone and cylinder forming from flat sheets. Despite the CNC features, it is classified under this tariff item as an other bending machine for flat products, as the CNC control does not change the primary function of bending. The machine is designed for working metal by bending flat products.

Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If the CBSA determines the CNC control makes it numerically controlled
Numerically controlled bending machines are classified under a separate tariff item.
If the machine also performs cutting operations
Machines with additional cutting functions may be classified under the shearing subheading.

The Tariff Assistant works through the GRI rules on your specific product to reach the right tariff item — and can price the duty on it in the same conversation.
Import Tips & Compliance
• Although the machine is CNC-controlled, it is classified under this item because the tariff item for numerically controlled machines (8462.29.10) may not apply to bending rolls with variable geometry; confirm with the CBSA
• Provide detailed technical specifications to support classification
• Ensure the machine meets Canadian electrical safety standards
