Practical summary

Group 282 sits in the PSIC 2019 hierarchy under C Manufacturing > 28 Manufacture of Machinery and Equipment, n.e.c.. This group usually narrows the choice to a small family of classes such as Manufacture of agricultural and forestry machinery, Manufacture of metal-forming machinery and machine tools, and Manufacture of machinery for metallurgy. It is useful when two or three neighboring activities look similar but should not be collapsed into one code.

Official note

Source-backed description

This group includes the manufacture of special-purpose machinery, i.e. machinery for exclusive use in a PSIC industry or a small cluster of PSIC industries. While most of these are used in other manufacturing processes, such as food manufacturing or textile manufacturing, this group also includes the manufacture of machinery specific for other (non-manufacturing industries), such as aircraft launching gear or amusement park equipment.
