Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If Y-axis travel over 685 mm but not over 1,270 mm
Larger Y-axis dimension shifts classification within the same horizontal-spindle machining center subheading.
If imported as a component or incomplete machine without integrated control system
Unfinished machining centers or parts thereof fall under Chapter 84 heading for machine-tool parts rather than complete centers.
