28 Manufacture of machinery and equipment n.e.c.<br />

This division includes the manufacture of machinery and equipment that acts independently on materials either mechanically or<br />

thermally or per<strong>for</strong>ms operations on materials (such as handling, spraying, weighing or packing), It includes their mechanical<br />

components which produce and apply <strong>for</strong>ce, and any specially manufactured primary parts. This includes the manufacture of<br />

fixed and mobile or hand-held devices, regardless of whether they are designed <strong>for</strong> industrial, building and civil engineering,<br />

agricultural or home use. The manufacture of special equipment <strong>for</strong> passenger or freight transport within demarcated premises<br />

also belongs within this division.<br />

This division distinguishes between the manufacture of special-purpose machinery, i.e. machinery <strong>for</strong> exclusive use in a specific<br />

industry or a small cluster of specific industries, and general-purpose machinery, i.e. machinery that is being used in a wide<br />

range of industries.<br />

This division also includes the manufacture of other special purpose machinery, not covered elsewhere in the classification,<br />

whether or not used in a manufacturing process, such as fairground amusement equipment, automatic bowling alley<br />

equipment, etc.<br />

This division excludes the manufacture of metal products <strong>for</strong> general use (division 25), associated control devices, computer<br />

equipment, measurement and testing equipment, electricity distribution and control apparatus (divisions 26 and 27) and<br />

general-purpose motor vehicles (divisions 29 and 30).<br />

28.1 Manufacture of general purpose machinery<br />

28.11 Manufacture of engines and turbines, except aircraft, vehicle and cycle engines<br />

This class includes:<br />

– manufacture of internal combustion piston engines, except motor vehicle, aircraft and cycle propulsion engines:<br />

■ marine engines<br />

■ railway engines<br />

– manufacture of pistons, piston rings, carburettors and such <strong>for</strong> all internal combustion engines, diesel engines etc.<br />

– manufacture of inlet and exhaust valves of internal combustion engines<br />

– manufacture of turbines and parts thereof:<br />

■ steam turbines and other vapour turbines<br />

■ hydraulic turbines, waterwheels and regulators thereof<br />

■ wind turbines<br />

■ gas turbines, except turbojets or turbo propellers <strong>for</strong> aircraft propulsion<br />

– manufacture of boiler-turbine sets<br />

– manufacture of turbine-generator sets<br />

– manufacture of engines <strong>for</strong> industrial application<br />
