Alternative Classifications

This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.

8459.21.00Same rate: 39.2%

If numerically controlled (CNC)

CNC drilling/boring machines are distinctly classified in 8459.21, separate from non-CNC 'other' machines.

8479.82.00Lower: 35% vs 39.2%

If specialized for semiconductor mixing/processing

Semiconductor-specific processing machines move to 8479 per statistical notes on wafer growth equipment.

8462.29.00Higher: 39.4% vs 39.2%

If for bending/shearing metal sheets first

Preliminary forming operations classify under 8462 before final boring/milling.
