Import Tips
• Include detailed CAD models showing integration with gear shaping ram and table to substantiate 'solely or principally' use criterion
• Label shipments clearly as 'gear shaper column only' to prevent bundling with complete machines under different headings
• Conduct stress analysis certification if requested, as columns must withstand high cutting forces specific to gear production
