About heading 8457

Machining centers, unit construction machines (single station) and multistation transfer machines, for working metal

Heading 8457 covers metal-working machine tools in three groups: machining centers, unit construction machines (single station), and multistation transfer machines. It is split first by machine type, then by used or rebuilt status and automatic tool changer features for machining centers, and by numerical control for the other two groups.
