U.S. imports of non-numerically controlled milling machines for metal (nes) (SITC 73154) totaled $1.9M in April 2026, traded with 15 countries.
Importers of Non-Numerically Controlled Milling Machines for Metal (NES) paid $260K in duties in April 2026 — an effective duty rate of 14% on $1.9M in dutiable value, based on actual customs collections rather than the published tariff schedule.
Last updated: April 2026 dataConventional (non-CNC) milling machines for metalworking that fall outside more specific SITC headings occupy a residual classification role in capital equipment trade. These machines remove metal by rotating multi-point cutters and are widely used in job shops, toolrooms, and general manufacturing where manual or semi-automatic control is sufficient. Importers should confirm whether the machine's control architecture qualifies it as numerically controlled, since that distinction drives classification and can affect applicable duty treatment under Section 301 measures on machinery from certain origins.

The key criterion is whether the machine's axes are controlled by a programmable numerical controller. Machines with manual handwheels, dial controls, or basic digital readouts (DROs) that do not execute stored programs typically qualify as non-numerically controlled. Documentation from the manufacturer specifying the control system type is essential when presenting the entry to CBP.
Depending on the country of origin, imports of metal milling machines may be subject to Section 301 tariffs. Importers should verify the applicable measures for the specific origin at the time of entry, as trade-remedy coverage and rates can change. Consulting a licensed customs broker before shipment is advisable.
