Last updated: September 2026 dataUsed extensively in mining, quarrying, and aggregate processing, these machines sort, screen, separate, or wash earth, stone, ore, and other solid mineral substances — a category central to both raw-material extraction and construction-material supply chains. The US schedule divides the heading between portable units (8474100010) and stationary units (8474100090), a distinction with practical implications for capital-equipment depreciation and site-deployment logistics. The United Kingdom and Canada are the leading US suppliers, reflecting established engineering expertise in heavy mineral-processing equipment. Germany rounds out the top three source countries.

CBP generally considers whether the machine is designed and equipped for movement between work sites — for example, mounted on wheels or a trailer chassis with towing provisions — versus permanently installed or requiring disassembly for relocation. Self-propelled or track-mounted screening plants are typically portable; fixed-foundation installations are stationary. The distinction affects which 10-digit tariff line applies and may influence state-level equipment tax treatment as well.
Machines from China in this heading may be subject to Section 301 tariffs. Importers sourcing from the United Kingdom, Canada, or Germany — the leading suppliers — should verify current tariff treatment, as trade-remedy exposure varies by country of origin and specific tariff line. A licensed customs broker can confirm the applicable duty rate and any active exclusions.
