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 />
