Import Tips

• Provide detailed technical specs confirming numerical control and single-station unit construction to avoid misclassification as general lathes

• Include CE marking or equivalent safety certifications for electrical components to meet U.S. import safety standards

• Declare spindle speed, axis travel, and control system type accurately; common pitfall is undervaluing high-precision tooling packages
