Machine-tools for threading or tapping by removing metal, except lathes and way-type unit head machines

CPC v2.1 Code: 44215

About machine-tools for threading or tapping by removing metal, except lathes and way-type unit head machines

cpc code 44215 covers a crucial segment of the metalworking industry, encompassing machine-tools used for threading or tapping operations that remove metal. These specialized machines play a vital role in the manufacturing of a wide range of products, from automotive components to industrial machinery, contributing significantly to the broader economy.

Production process

The primary production techniques utilized in this industry involve the use of machine-tools that employ cutting tools to create threads or taps in metal workpieces. These machines typically utilize a combination of rotational and linear motion to precisely remove material, shaping the desired features. The process may involve the use of computer numerical control (CNC) technology to automate and optimize the manufacturing workflow.

Production inputs

The key inputs required for the production of machine-tools covered under cpc code 44215 include high-quality steel and other metal alloys, specialized cutting tools, precision bearings, and advanced control systems. Additionally, the industry relies on skilled technicians and engineers to design, manufacture, and maintain these specialized machines.

Production outputs

The primary outputs of this industry are the machine-tools themselves, which are then utilized by a wide range of manufacturing sectors, including 43211 Manufacture of motor vehicles, 43221 (Manufacture of bodies (coachwork) for motor vehicles; manufacture of trailers and semi-trailers), and 43241 Manufacture of parts and accessories for motor vehicles. These machine-tools enable the efficient production of threaded components and fasteners, which are essential for the assembly and maintenance of various products.
