Import Tips
• Provide edge profiling specifications (bevel angles, edge strength metrics) proving semiconductor application
• Include photos/videos demonstrating honing action on actual wafers in technical submission
• Avoid misclassification by excluding non-semiconductor demo workpieces from import samples
