Calculating machines; non-electronic

HS v2022 Code: 847030

About calculating machines; non-electronic

HS code 847030 covers the classification of non-electronic calculating machines, which are an essential component of the broader office equipment and machinery industry. This industry plays a crucial role in supporting various business functions, from accounting and finance to data processing and analysis. The production and trade of these machines contribute significantly to the global economy, facilitating efficient record-keeping, calculations, and decision-making across a wide range of industries.

Production process

The production of non-electronic calculating machines typically involves a combination of mechanical and electromechanical processes. Key steps include the fabrication of individual components, such as the housing, input mechanisms (e.g., keys or buttons), and internal mechanisms (e.g., gears, levers, and display systems). These components are then carefully assembled and tested to ensure proper functioning and durability.

Production inputs

The production of non-electronic calculating machines requires a range of inputs, including metal alloys for the housing and internal components, plastics for the input mechanisms and casing, and specialized mechanical and electrical parts. Additionally, the industry relies on advanced manufacturing equipment, such as precision cutting tools, assembly lines, and quality control systems. The availability and cost of these raw materials and equipment can significantly impact the overall production and pricing of these machines.

Production outputs

The primary output of the non-electronic calculating machines industry is, of course, the calculating machines themselves. These machines are then consumed by a variety of industries, including 847190 Office machines, n.e.c. and 847290 (Parts and accessories (other than covers, carrying cases and the like) suitable for use solely or principally with the machines of headings 84.69 to 84.72), as they are essential tools for various business functions. The trade and distribution of these machines are also closely linked to the 847190 Office machines, n.e.c. and 847290 (Parts and accessories (other than covers, carrying cases and the like) suitable for use solely or principally with the machines of headings 84.69 to 84.72) industries.
