Moulding patterns; of metal, metal carbides, glass, mineral materials, rubber or plastics

HS v2022 Code: 848030

About moulding patterns; of metal, metal carbides, glass, mineral materials, rubber or plastics

HS code 848030 covers the production and trade of moulding patterns made from a variety of materials, including metal, metal carbides, glass, mineral materials, rubber, and plastics. These moulding patterns are essential components in the manufacturing process, serving as templates or models for the creation of various products. The industry plays a crucial role in supporting diverse sectors, from automotive and construction to consumer goods and industrial machinery, by providing the necessary tools for shaping and forming materials into desired shapes and designs.

Production process

Moulding patterns are typically produced through a combination of traditional and advanced manufacturing techniques. Depending on the material, the patterns may be created through processes such as casting, machining, 3D printing, or hand-sculpting. The patterns are often designed using computer-aided design (CAD) software, allowing for precise and customizable shapes. Once the pattern is created, it is used to produce molds or dies, which are then used in the manufacturing of the final products.

Production inputs

The production of moulding patterns requires a range of raw materials, including metals, metal alloys, plastics, rubbers, and various mineral-based materials. Specialized machinery, such as CNC machines, 3D printers, and casting equipment, is also essential for the manufacturing process. Additionally, skilled labor, including designers, engineers, and technicians, is necessary to ensure the quality and accuracy of the moulding patterns.

Production outputs

The moulding patterns produced under HS code 848030 are used as inputs for the manufacturing of a wide range of products. These patterns are commonly used in the production of 842139 Filtering or purifying machinery and apparatus for gases, 848410 Gaskets and similar joints of metal sheeting combined with other material or of two or more layers of metal, and 848490 Parts of machinery, among other industrial and consumer goods. The versatility of these moulding patterns allows them to be utilized across various industries, contributing to the overall efficiency and quality of the manufacturing process.
