Equipment, technical data and procedures for the production of fibres covered by Item IL 1763 or their composites, as follows, and specially designed components and accessories and "specially designed software" therefor-

(a) Filament winding machines of which the motions for positioning, wrapping and winding fibres are coordinated and programmed in three or more axes, specially designed to fabricate composite structures or laminates from fibrous and filamentary materials; coordinating and programming controls therefor,

(b) Tape-laying machines of which the motions for positioning and laying tape and sheets are coordinated and programmed in two or more axes, specially designed for the manufacture of composite airframes and missile structures;

(c) Interlacing machines, including adapters and modification kits, for weaving, interlacing or braiding fibres to fabricate composite structures, except textile machinery which has not been modified for the above end-uses;

(d) Specially designed or adapted equipment for the production of fibrous and filamentary materials covered by sub-items IL 1763 (a) and (b), as follows:

(1) Equipment for converting polymeric fibres (such as polyacrylonitrile, rayon, or polycarbosilane) including special provision to strain the fibre during heating;

(2) Equipment for the vapour deposition of elements or compounds on heated filamentary substrates; and

(3) Equipment for the wet-spinning of refractory ceramics (such as aluminium oxide);

(e) Specially designed or adapted equipment for special fibre surface treatment or for producing prepregs and preforms covered by Item IL 1763 (c);

Note:

Equipment covered by this sub-item includes but is not limited to rollers, tension stretchers, coating equipment, cutting equipment and clicker dies.

(f) Technical data (including processing conditions) and procedures for the regulation of temperature, pressure or atmosphere in autoclaves when used for the production of composites or partially processed composites using materials covered by Item IL 1763.

Explanatory Note:

Specially designed or adapted components and accessories for the machines covered by this item include, but are not limited to, moulds, mandrels, dies, fixtures and tooling for the preform pressing, curing, casting, sintering or bonding of composite structures or laminates covered by Item IL 1763 (d).

Equipment specially designed for the manufacture or testing of devices and assemblies thereof embargoed by Item L 1588 or magnetic recording media described in Item IL 1572, as follows, and specially designed components and "specially designed software" therefor-

Technical Note:

For this item, single aperture forms described in Item IL 1588 (b) with a maximum dimension less than 0.76 mm (30 mils) are considered embargoed types.

(a) Equipment for the manufacture of single and multi-aperture forms embargoed by sub-items IL 1588 (b), (c) or (d), as follows:

(1) "Automatic" presses to produce embargoed types;

(2) Press dies to produce embargoed types;

(3) "Automatic" equipment for monitoring, grading, sorting, exercising or testing of embargoed types;

(b) Equipment for the manufacture of thin film memory storage or switching devices having square hysteresis loops and "automatic" equipment for monitoring, grading, sorting, exercising or testing devices embargoed by sub-item IL 1588 (e).

(c) "Automatic" equipment for monitoring, exercising or testing assemblies of devices embargoed by sub-items IL 1588 (b), (c), (d) or (e);
