CPC v2.1 Code: 452

About computing machinery and parts and accessories thereof

cpc code 452 covers the industry of computing machinery and its associated parts and accessories. This industry is a critical component of the modern digital economy, providing the hardware and infrastructure that powers a wide range of technologies, from personal computers to industrial automation systems. The products within this industry are essential for driving innovation, improving productivity, and enabling the digital transformation across various sectors.

Production process

The production of computing machinery and its parts involves a range of advanced manufacturing techniques. This includes the assembly of electronic components, the fabrication of circuit boards, and the integration of specialized software and firmware. Automated processes, such as pick-and-place machines and surface mount technology, are commonly used to ensure precision and efficiency in the manufacturing process.

Production inputs

The production of computing machinery and parts requires a variety of inputs, including 321 Electronic components and parts, 325 Chemicals and chemical products, and 281 Fabricated metal products, except machinery and equipment. Additionally, the industry relies on advanced machinery, such as 282 Machinery and equipment n.e.c., and highly skilled labor to design, engineer, and assemble these complex products.

Production outputs

The primary outputs of the computing machinery and parts industry are 452 Computing machinery and parts and accessories thereof, which are then consumed by a wide range of other industries, including 465 Electrical equipment, 620 Computer programming, consultancy, and related activities, and 841 Public administration and defence; compulsory social security. These products are essential for the development and implementation of various digital technologies, from personal computers to industrial automation systems.
