Crystals; mounted piezo-electric

HS v2022 Code: 854160

About crystals; mounted piezo-electric

HS code 854160 covers the import and export of mounted piezo-electric crystals, which are essential components in a wide range of electronic devices and systems. These specialized crystals have the ability to convert mechanical energy into electrical energy, and vice versa, making them crucial for applications such as sensors, transducers, and various types of actuators. The global piezo-electric crystal market is expected to grow significantly in the coming years, driven by the increasing demand for these components in the electronics, automotive, and industrial automation industries.

Production process

Mounted piezo-electric crystals are typically produced through a multi-step manufacturing process. First, the raw materials, such as quartz or ceramic materials, are carefully selected and processed to create the desired crystal structure. The crystals are then cut and shaped to the required dimensions, often using specialized cutting and grinding equipment. Finally, the crystals are mounted onto a supporting structure, such as a metal or ceramic base, to create the final product.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of mounted piezo-electric crystals include the raw materials (e.g., quartz, ceramic), specialized cutting and grinding equipment, and various mounting materials (e.g., metals, ceramics). Additionally, the manufacturing process may require precise temperature and humidity-controlled environments, as well as skilled technicians to ensure the quality and consistency of the final products.

Production outputs

Mounted piezo-electric crystals produced under HS code 854160 are used in a wide range of electronic devices and systems, including 851711 Telephone sets, 851762 Machines for the reception, conversion and transmission or regeneration of voice, images or other data, 903289 Automatic regulating or controlling instruments and apparatus, and 903010 Instruments and apparatus for measuring or checking the flow, level, pressure or other variables of liquids or gases. These crystals are essential components that enable the conversion of mechanical energy into electrical signals, making them crucial for various sensing, control, and communication applications.
