Classification Notes

MSLA, SLA and DLP resin printers (Elegoo Saturn, Anycubic Photon, Phrozen Sonic) cure liquid photopolymer resin layer by layer, which is additive manufacturing by plastics deposit: 8485.20 since HS 2022 — US HTS 8485.20.00 (3.1%), EU CN 8485 20 00 (1.7%), UK 0%. The UV light source does not make them optical apparatus. Wash-and-cure stations ship separately as 8543.70 or 8479.89. Elegoo and Anycubic printers are made in China, so US imports also pay Section 301 duty.
