  "text": "Description of the goods\nClassification(CN code)\nReasons\n(1)\n(2)\n(3)\nLinear motion system comprising a slide mechanism with two grooves and a rectangular casing enclosing bearing balls.\nThe casing moves along the grooves in the slide mechanism by means of the bearing balls.\nThe linear motion system is used with different kinds of machines, for example, goods handling equipment, machine tools or DVD players.\n8482 10 90\nClassification is determined by General Rules 1 and 6 for the interpretation of the Combined Nomenclature, Note 2(a) to Section XVI and by the wording of CN codes 8482, 8482 10 and 8482 10 90.\nSince the linear motion system can be used with different kinds of machines it cannot be considered as a part suitable for use solely or principally with a particular kind of machine within the meaning of Note 2(b) to Section XVI. Classification of the system as a part of a machine under a heading such as 8431, 8466 or 8522 is therefore excluded.\nThe linear motion system is considered to be a slide mechanism with bearing balls of the free-travelling type of heading 8482 (see also the Harmonised System Explanatory Notes to heading 8482, (A), (3)).\nAs the linear motion system is a product specified in heading 8482, it is to be classified in that heading in accordance with Note 2(a) to Section XVI.",
