Import Tips & Compliance

• Specify maximum panel size (e.g

• 1000x1000mm) to distinguish from larger industrial benders

• Include operator training manuals; helps prove commercial metalworking intent vs hobby use

• Watch for dual-use flags if tooling accommodates defense-related panels; may trigger ITAR review
