Import Tips

Include operational manuals demonstrating closed die forging cycle to distinguish from mechanical hammers

Budget for electrical import compliance testing as high-power flywheel systems require special certifications

Avoid common pitfall of declaring as 'universal press' which could trigger reclassification audits
