Import Tips

Provide CAD models or blueprints illustrating planet gear mounting to substantiate gearbox part status

Label with heat treatment specs (e.g

T6 aluminum) for accurate material duty assessment

Avoid bulk packaging; ship with gearbox mockups if possible to prevent parts-of-sets misclassification
