Machines; for cleaning, sorting or grading seed, grain or dried leguminous vegetables

HS v2017 Code: 843710

About machines; for cleaning, sorting or grading seed, grain or dried leguminous vegetables

hs code 843710 covers a critical segment of the agricultural machinery industry, focusing on machines used for cleaning, sorting, and grading seed, grain, and dried leguminous vegetables. These specialized machines play a vital role in post-harvest processing, ensuring the quality and consistency of agricultural products that are essential for domestic consumption, export markets, and further processing industries.

Production process

Machines classified under hs code 843710 typically utilize a combination of mechanical and pneumatic systems to clean, sort, and grade agricultural products. Common techniques include vibrating screens, air-based separation, and optical sorting technologies that can efficiently process large volumes of material. Manufacturers often customize these machines to handle specific crop types and meet the unique requirements of their target markets.

Production inputs

The production of hs code 843710 machines requires a range of inputs, including metal components for the structural frame, motors and control systems, and specialized sensors and sorting mechanisms. Manufacturers may also rely on 842919 Machinery; for cleaning, sorting or grading eggs, fruit or other agricultural produce and other related equipment to integrate comprehensive processing solutions.

Production outputs

Machines classified under hs code 843710 are primarily used by farmers, cooperatives, and agricultural processing facilities to prepare crops for storage, transportation, and further processing. The cleaned, sorted, and graded outputs from these machines can then be used as inputs for 100190 Wheat and meslin, 100590 (Maize (corn)), 071310 Peas, dried, shelled, whether or not skinned or split, and other 0713 Legumes, dried, shelled, whether or not skinned or split industries.
