Definition
The manufacture of machinery and equipment that act independently on materials either mechanically or thermally or perform operations on materials (for example: handling, spraying, weighing or packing), including their mechanical components that produce and apply force, and any specially manufactured primary parts.
Description
The machinery may be either general-purpose (machinery that is used in a wide range of industries) or special-purpose machinery (machinery for exclusive use within an industry or a small cluster of industries). General-purpose machinery includes, for example: engines and turbines; fluid power equipment; other pumps, compressors, taps and valves; bearings, gears, gearing and driving elements; ovens, furnaces and furnace burners; lifting and handling equipment; office machinery and equipment (except computers and peripheral equipment); and power-driven hand tools. Special-purpose machinery includes, for example: agricultural and forestry machinery; metal-forming machinery and machine tools; machinery for metallurgy; machinery for mining, quarrying and construction; machinery for food, beverage and tobacco processing; and machinery for textile, apparel and leather production.
