Notes that govern this classification
Erläuterungen zur Kombinierten Nomenklatur (KN) Hierher gehören Drehmaschinen, die besonders für die Bearbeitung von Metallen eingerichtet sind und mit spanabhebenden Drehwerkzeugen arbeiten. In der Regel wird bei diesen Maschinen das zu bearbeitende Werkstück in Drehung um seine eigene Achse versetzt. Jedoch gehören auch solche Drehmaschinen hierher, bei denen das Werkzeug umläuft oder Werkstück und Werkzeug umlaufen. Hierher gehören neben den in den Erläuterungen zu Position 8458 des HS, dritter Absatz, genannten Drehmaschinen z. B. Spezialhinterdrehmaschinen, Achsendrehmaschinen, Wellenschälmaschinen, Kurbelzapfendrehmaschinen sowie Universaldrehmaschinen. Diese Universaldrehmaschinen gleichen äußerlich den Spitzendrehmaschinen; sie unterscheiden sich jedoch von diesen durch ihren Mechanismus, der ihnen gestattet, neben dem Drehen auch Arbeiten wie z.

Zu Unterpositionen 8458 11 und 8458 91: Nummerische gesteuerte Werkzeugmaschinen werden meistens entsprechend ihren Abkürzungen als CNC (Computer Numerical Control)- oder als NC (Numerical Control)-Maschinen bezeichnet. Die Bezeichnungen Computer Numerical Control und Numerical Control werden gleichbedeutend verwendet. Eine nummerisch gesteuerte Werkzeugmaschine wird dadurch charakterisiert, dass ihre Arbeitsvorgänge und die von der Werkzeugmaschine, vom Werkzeug oder vom Werkstück durchgeführten Bewegungen entsprechend den vorprogrammierten Befehlen ausgeführt werden. Die Programmierung erfolgt normalerweise in einer NC-spezifischen Programmiersprache (z. B. ISO-Code). Die Programme oder andere Daten werden derart gespeichert, um einen direkten oder nachgeordneten Zugriff zu ermöglichen. …
