Import Tips & Compliance

Include polishing rate data and surface roughness specs (Ra values) to demonstrate material removal function

Avoid describing as 'cleaning equipment' in docs, as this shifts classification away from machine tools

For EU imports, ensure Machinery Directive compliance documentation is complete
