Import Tips
• Provide engineering drawings showing boring spindle configuration to distinguish from milling machines under 8459.61
• Declare accurate weight and dimensions early; oversized boring mills often trigger additional transport compliance requirements
• Avoid pitfalls by certifying no semiconductor-specific adaptations, as those may shift to Chapter 84 statistical notes for wafer processing
