Granite Base for CMM
Precision-ground granite surface plate used as the stable base for coordinate-measuring machines (CMMs) under 9031.49.40. Its low thermal expansion and high rigidity ensure accurate 3D measurements by minimizing vibration and distortion. Classified under 9031.90.45.00 as a dedicated base component for these optical measuring instruments.

Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If suitable for multiple measuring instruments beyond CMMs
Parts not dedicated solely to 9031.49.40 CMMs fall into general parts/accessories for measuring instruments.
If incorporates air-bearing mounting holes
Air-bearing components may shift to machinery parts under heating/cooling equipment if multifunctional.
If imported without CMM-specific machining
Unworked granite articles classify by material, not end-use specificity.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify granite density and flatness certification meets CMM tolerances (typically <5μm/300mm) for customs valuation
• Include CMM model compatibility docs to avoid reclassification as general granite under 6802
• Check for anti-dumping duties on granite from specific countries like India or China
