About tubes; cathode-ray television picture tubes, including video monitor cathode-ray tubes, colour

HS code 854011 covers the production of cathode-ray television picture tubes, including video monitor cathode-ray tubes, in color. These specialized electronic components are a critical part of the broader 851200 Television receivers, whether or not incorporating radio-broadcast receivers, video monitors and video projectors industry. Cathode-ray tubes serve as the display technology for traditional televisions and computer monitors, playing a vital role in the global electronics and entertainment sectors.

Production process

The production of cathode-ray tubes involves several key steps. First, the glass envelope is formed and coated with phosphors that emit light when struck by an electron beam. Electron guns are then installed to generate and focus the electron beam. Finally, the tube is evacuated and sealed to maintain the necessary vacuum for operation.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for cathode-ray tube production include high-quality glass for the envelope, phosphor materials, and specialized electron gun components. Manufacturers also rely on precision machinery and equipment to assemble the tubes to tight tolerances. Significant electrical and electronic components are integrated into the final product as well.

Production outputs

Cathode-ray tubes produced under HS code 854011 are primarily used as the display technology in traditional television sets and computer monitors. The output of this industry is a key input for the 851200 Television receivers, whether or not incorporating radio-broadcast receivers, video monitors and video projectors sector.
