Machine-tools; for working metal, sintered metal carbides or cermets, without removing material, draw-benches for bars, tubes, profiles, wire or the like

hs code 846310 covers a range of machine tools used for working metal, sintered metal carbides, or cermets without removing material. These specialized machines play a crucial role in the manufacturing and metalworking industries, enabling the shaping and forming of various metal components and products. The demand for these machine tools is driven by the need for precision, efficiency, and cost-effectiveness in the production of a wide array of metal-based goods, from automotive parts to industrial equipment.

The primary production techniques for the machine tools covered under hs code 846310 involve the use of draw-benches, which are used to shape bars, tubes, profiles, and wire without removing material. These machines work by applying compressive or tensile forces to the workpiece, causing it to deform and take on the desired shape. The process is often carried out at high speeds and with a high degree of accuracy, ensuring consistent quality and dimensional tolerances.

The key inputs required for the production of the machine tools under hs code 846310 include high-quality metals, such as steel and aluminum, as well as specialized components like bearings, motors, and control systems. Additionally, the manufacturing process may require advanced tools and equipment, such as CNC (Computer Numerical Control) machines, welding equipment, and precision measuring instruments. The availability of skilled technicians and engineers is also crucial for the design, assembly, and maintenance of these specialized machine tools.

The machine tools covered under hs code 846310 are primarily used in the manufacturing and metalworking industries to shape and form a wide range of metal products. These machine tools can be used to produce components for 870000 Vehicles; other than railway or tramway rolling-stock, and parts and accessories thereof, 842199 Machinery; for working metal, sintered metal carbides or cermets, without removing material, and 731210 Tubes, pipes and hollow profiles, of iron or steel; seamless, among other industries.
