Import Tips
• Provide CAD drawings and machining capability proofs to substantiate numerical control and metalworking classification
• Label equipment clearly as for industrial metalworking to prevent misclassification as consumer or non-CNC machinery
• Check for EPA energy efficiency compliance if importing high-power models used in cleanroom-adjacent fabs
