Import Tips
• Provide beam source specifications (e.g
• fiber laser wavelength) to distinguish from plasma or traditional lasers
• Ensure export licenses if high-power optics exceed certain wattages under US EAR regulations
• Label as 'metalworking only' to avoid reclassification into semiconductor wafer processing equipment
