Import Tips
• Specify tow denier input (typically 2-15 dpf) and staple length range (25-120mm) for proper classification
• Include blade material and lubrication system details as critical for textile tow cutting
• Document crimping station integration if present, as complete tow-to-staple lines may classify differently
