Czochralski Crystal Puller from Japan
A Czochralski crystal puller produces monocrystalline silicon boules by pulling a seed crystal from molten silicon in a vacuum chamber, then grinding the boule to a precise diameter. This machine works on mineral-like semiconductor materials, fitting tariff item 8464.90.00 for machine-tools for working stone, ceramics or similar materials.

Import Tips
• The CBSA may classify this as semiconductor manufacturing equipment under heading 84.86 if it is solely for boule production; be prepared to justify the mineral-working function
• Check if the puller qualifies for duty relief under the Machinery Remission Program
• Provide a detailed description of the pulling and grinding processes to avoid reclassification
