UNSPSC 23242701: Folded tube mill machinery

Machinery used in the fabrication and finishing of folded tubular components

UNSPSC 23242701 Folded tube mill machinery is a Commodity code that in state and local practice encompasses CNC machine tools, wire electrical discharge machining (EDM) systems, shearing machines, and related precision metalworking equipment used in educational and operational settings. Recent solicitations show state and local governments purchasing complete CNC systems (mills, lathes, EDM machines), replacement parts for existing equipment, training systems, and associated tooling kits. Texas A&M University System, Texas Department of Transportation, Texas State Technical College, the School Board of Polk County Florida, the State of California, and Hillsborough County have all issued or announced procurements under or closely aligned with this code within the past three months. The issuing bodies span higher education institutions, state transportation departments, state procurement offices, school districts, and county governments. Most solicitations specify firm fixed pricing on an F.O.B. destination basis, with delivery to named locations and compliance with state or local procurement requirements including NIGP classifications, registration on state master bidders lists, and acknowledgment of any addenda.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas and California. The Texas A&M University System has posted three separate ITBs since late June 2026 for CNC equipment (ITB TAMUS-ITB-26-0540 due July 13, 2026), machine shop and fabrication equipment (ITB TAMUS-ITB-26-0541 due July 15, 2026), and a CNC lathe and machining center (ITB TAMUS-ITB-26-0542 due July 23, 2026), all managed through the AggieBid platform. Texas Department of Transportation issued an IFB for OEM replacement parts for a Cincinnati Shear machine (23 line items, responses due June 2, 2026 at 3:00 PM Central Time), with evaluation on best value including quality, reliability, and delivery terms under Texas Government Code 2155.074. Texas State Technical College solicited Wire EDM machines and transformers valued above $100,000 with a mandatory subcontracting plan requirement (RFP-315, due March 11, 2026). The State of California is requesting bids for a water table CNC Hypertherm plasma cutter (RFB-IS-26201000, responses due June 11, 2026) and a shearing machine (RFB-IS-26200650, due March 10, 2026). Polk County Schools sought comprehensive CNC training solutions including desktop mills, lathes, simulator systems, tooling, and warranty (responses due March 24, 2026). Hillsborough County announced a sole-source award to Powerscreen of Florida for five years of maintenance, repairs, and parts for Komptech composting equipment ($1,992,824.18 total value, challenges due June 25, 2026). No recent opportunities support activity outside Texas, California, and Florida.
