Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If primarily laser-based rather than complete optical inspection system
Separate heading for lasers vs. integrated inspection appliances.
If for other measuring/checking instruments not exclusively optical
Optical specificity required for 9031.41; hybrid systems classify differently.
If electromechanical wafer handling/inspection combinations
Mechanical handling dominates classification over optical inspection.
