Import Tips & Compliance

Provide CAD drawings showing slide stroke tolerances specific to mechanical transfer presses

Label precisely as 'slide for mechanical transfer press' to distinguish from servo-electric variants

Avoid misdeclaration as tool holders (8466.10), which have separate provisions
