U.S. imports of planing, milling & molding machines for wood, cork, bone & similar materials (HS 846592) totaled $15.9M in July 2026, traded with 27 countries.
Importers of Planing, Milling & Molding Machines for Wood, Cork, Bone & Similar Materials paid $1.8M in duties in July 2026 — an effective duty rate of 14% on $12.7M in dutiable value, based on actual customs collections rather than the published tariff schedule. Planing, Milling & Molding Machines for Wood, Cork, Bone & Similar Materials imports of $15.9M in July 2026 ran 14% above the year-to-date monthly average of $13.9M.
Last updated: July 2026 dataTaiwan leads US imports of planing, milling, and molding-by-cutting machines for wood and similar hard materials, a category that includes routers, jointers, planers, shapers, profilers, moulders, and dovetailing machines — each with its own 10-digit line and, in many cases, value-based sub-breakpoints. Numerically controlled routers (8465920055) are classified separately from non-NC routers, reflecting their higher automation level and distinct end-use in CNC furniture and cabinetry production. Canada and Germany are also significant suppliers, and USMCA origin from Canada may be relevant to duty treatment for qualifying equipment.

The schedule explicitly separates new numerically controlled (N/C) routers into 8465920055, while non-N/C new routers are split by value: under $3,000 each (8465920051) and $3,000 or over (8465920058). A router qualifies as numerically controlled if its axes of motion are directed by encoded numerical data — typically CNC control. Importers should retain the manufacturer's control-system documentation to substantiate the N/C classification if questioned by CBP.
Both moulders and shapers cut profiles into wood, but they are assigned distinct 10-digit lines: moulders (new) fall under 8465920031, while shapers and profilers (new) are covered by 8465920061 (with value splits at 8465920062 and 8465920066). The key distinction is mechanical: moulders typically feed the workpiece through rotating cutterheads on a horizontal spindle, while shapers use a vertical spindle. Manufacturer product descriptions and technical specs are the primary evidence for classification.
