Import Tips

• Document the machine's role in semiconductor boule production with engineering drawings to support correct HTS classification

• Verify that import documentation specifies 'internal cylindrical' capability to distinguish from external grinders

• Be prepared for additional scrutiny on vibration isolation features, common in semiconductor grinding equipment
