HS v2022 Code: 842119

About centrifuges; n.e.c. in heading no. 8421, including centrifugal dryers (but not clothes-dryers)

HS code 842119 covers a wide range of centrifugal equipment used in various industrial and commercial applications. Centrifuges are essential for separating solid and liquid components, dewatering, and drying processes across diverse sectors such as manufacturing, chemical processing, and wastewater treatment. This industry plays a crucial role in improving efficiency, reducing waste, and enabling critical production steps in the broader economy.

Production process

Centrifuges operate on the principle of centrifugal force, where the rotation of a drum or rotor causes the separation of materials based on their density differences. The main production techniques involve the careful design and engineering of the centrifuge components, including the rotor, drive system, and control mechanisms, to ensure optimal performance and reliability. Manufacturers also focus on improving energy efficiency, noise reduction, and safety features to meet the evolving needs of their customers.

Production inputs

The production of centrifuges requires a range of inputs, including high-quality metals and alloys for the rotor and other structural components, specialized bearings and seals, and advanced control systems. Manufacturers also rely on precision engineering and manufacturing capabilities, as well as access to a skilled workforce, to design and assemble these complex machines. Additionally, the industry may consume outputs from related 842119 (Centrifuges; n.e.c. in heading no. 8421, including centrifugal dryers (but not clothes-dryers)) and 842191 Parts of centrifuges, including centrifugal dryers industries.
