U.S. imports of numerically controlled profile forming machines for flat metal products (HS 846222) totaled $2.5M in June 2026, traded with 19 countries.
Importers of Numerically Controlled Profile Forming Machines for Flat Metal Products paid $378K in duties in June 2026 — an effective duty rate of 15% on $2.5M in dutiable value, based on actual customs collections rather than the published tariff schedule. Numerically Controlled Profile Forming Machines for Flat Metal Products imports of $2.5M in June 2026 ran 24% below the year-to-date monthly average of $3.3M.
Profile forming machines use roll-forming or bending sequences to continuously shape flat metal sheet or strip into structural profiles — purlins, channels, and custom sections — and the NC versions classified here offer programmable control over forming sequences and lengths. Italy leads US import supply, with Sweden and Germany also significant sources. The four 10-digit lines under this heading split by condition and value: used or rebuilt NC machines (8462220010), new NC machines under $3,025 (8462220020), and two NESOI lines for new NC machines above that threshold (8462220050 and 8462220060).
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
Both lines cover new numerically controlled profile forming machines not captured by the used/rebuilt or under-$3,025 lines, and importers should consult the current US HTS schedule notes and any applicable CBP rulings to determine which NESOI line applies to a specific machine configuration. When two NESOI lines exist at the same level, classification often turns on a technical specification or end-use distinction detailed in the schedule's chapter notes or CBP binding rulings.
Roll forming passes flat strip through a series of contoured rolls to progressively shape a continuous profile, while press-brake bending makes discrete bends in individual sheet blanks. This distinction matters for classification: roll-forming and profile-forming machines fall under 846222, while numerically controlled press brakes are classified under the separate heading 846223. Misidentifying the forming method can result in the wrong tariff line.
