Overview
This HTS classification, 9902.15.69, specifically covers a specialized type of flexographic printing machinery. The key defining characteristics of these machines include a continuous roll feed system, a design optimized for printing on paperboard (both coated and uncoated), a maximum printing speed under 184 meters per minute, and a print width ranging from 101 cm up to, but not including, 280 cm. It's important to note that this classification falls under Chapter 99, indicating temporary legislation or special provisions that may override or supplement standard tariff classifications found elsewhere in the HTS.
Given that this is a leaf node within the HTS database, there are no further subcategories to detail. The distinction from other sibling categories at the same level is implicitly defined by the specific technological and performance parameters outlined in the description. While other flexographic printing machinery might exist, this entry isolates those meeting the precise criteria for roll feed, paperboard substrate, speed, and width limitations, likely due to specific trade agreements, temporary import restrictions, or other legislative measures impacting their duty treatment. Therefore, accurate classification hinges on meticulously verifying all listed technical specifications against the subject merchandise.
