Import Tips

Label machine clearly as 'thread milling capable' and provide CAD/CAM software compatibility evidence

Avoid common pitfall of incomplete spindle speed documentation which can lead to duty rate disputes

For multi-axis machines, ensure CBP classification ruling references threading as primary function
