Import Tips

Verify CNC numerical control certification and spindle orientation documentation to confirm vertical turret classification

Ensure machine specs include metal removal capabilities; non-metal lathes may shift to Chapter 84 other machinery

Provide end-use statement if for semiconductor fab to avoid reclassification during customs review
