What's excluded from this heading

HSN 8459 covers machine tools (including way-type unit head machines) for drilling, boring, milling, threading or tapping by removing metal — but not lathes or turning centres, which are specifically classified under heading 8458 instead. If you're classifying metal-cutting machinery, confirm whether the machine is a lathe/turning-centre type first, since that determines which of these two related headings actually applies.
