Import Tips
• Verify machine specifications confirm use for rubber/thermosetting processing to avoid reclassification to general extruders
• Include detailed technical datasheets showing screw configuration and material compatibility in import documentation
• Ensure CE marking or equivalent for safety compliance, as extruders involve high pressures and temperatures
