About time of day recording apparatus and apparatus for measuring, recording or otherwise indicating intervals of time, with clock, watch movement or synchronous motor

hs code 9106 covers a diverse range of time-keeping and time-recording devices that are essential for various industries and applications. These products play a crucial role in accurately measuring, recording, and indicating time intervals, enabling efficient time management and coordination across a wide spectrum of economic activities. From industrial production to transportation, logistics, and administrative functions, the devices classified under this code are integral to the smooth operation and productivity of the modern economy.

Production process

The production of time-keeping and time-recording apparatus involves a combination of precision engineering, electronic assembly, and quality control processes. Manufacturers typically start with the fabrication of the core components, such as the clock or watch movements, using specialized machinery and techniques to ensure accuracy and durability. These components are then integrated with various housing materials, display interfaces, and additional features, depending on the specific product requirements. The final assembly process often involves meticulous testing and calibration to ensure the devices meet industry standards and customer expectations.

Production inputs

The production of time-keeping and time-recording apparatus requires a range of inputs, including specialized components like clock or watch movements, electronic circuitry, display panels, and housing materials. Manufacturers may also rely on precision tools, testing equipment, and skilled labor to ensure the quality and reliability of the final products. Additionally, the industry may consume inputs from related sectors, such as 8517 (Telephone sets, including telephones for cellular networks or for other wireless networks; other apparatus for the transmission or reception of voice, images or other data, including apparatus for communication in a wired or wireless network (such as a local or wide area network)), which can be integrated into time-recording devices for enhanced functionality.

Production outputs

The primary outputs of hs code 9106 are a diverse range of time-keeping and time-recording devices, such as clocks, watches, time stamps, and time recorders. These products are widely used across various industries, including 8471 Automatic data processing machines and units thereof; magnetic or optical readers, machines for transcribing data onto data media in coded form and machines for processing such data, not elsewhere specified or included, 8517 (Telephone sets, including telephones for cellular networks or for other wireless networks; other apparatus for the transmission or reception of voice, images or other data, including apparatus for communication in a wired or wireless network (such as a local or wide area network)), and 8525 Transmission apparatus for radio-broadcasting or television, whether or not incorporating reception apparatus or sound recording or reproducing apparatus; television cameras, digital cameras and video camera recorders, among others. The accurate time-keeping and time-recording capabilities of these devices are essential for coordinating activities, monitoring productivity, and ensuring compliance with regulatory requirements.
