Import Tips & Compliance

• Verify machine specifications confirm reciprocating table design and metal/cermet finishing to avoid misclassification under numerically controlled headings

• Include detailed technical datasheets and end-use certificates, especially for semiconductor applications, to support valuation and compliance

• Check for dual-use restrictions if destined for high-tech industries; common pitfalls include incomplete abrasive tool declarations
