4. Measuring
a. Measure test part to the nearest 0.001
5. Communication
a. Read and interpret technical blue prints
b. Understand all symbols on technical blue
prints, such as geometric tolerances,
surface-finish symbols, corner-break
symbols, etc
General Information
The CNC machines will be available for
orientation on the day before the competition.
During this time, technicians will be on hand to
help competitors and their advisors familiarize
themselves with the equipment. An actual test
part will be programmed, set up and machined
from the provided drawing and stock material.
Materials used for the competition may be
Aluminum, Brass, Cold-rolled Steel, or Delrin.
Test project scoring
The three evaluation criteria for the test part are:
1. Conformity to Print:
a. Visual conformity of part to drawing.
(Look for shape and features of part)
b. Edges broken
c. Transitions of surfaces
d. Part is burr free
e. Damage to part (clamp marks,
scratches)
2. Dimensions:
This is an objective scoring. Scores will
only be granted if dimension is in
compliance with the print. The score for

Scope of Work
The test project consists only of
practical work comprised of
programming and actual
machining work. The jury will
determine the ratio between
programming and machining time
on the basis of the competition
projects.
The time allowed for the test
project(s) will not exceed 8 hours
Practical Work
Setup machine
Select, mount and set tools and
offsets
Apply the correct use of cutter
compensation ( G40/ G41/ G42 )
Machine set-up
The competitor must select,
measure and adjust the
appropriate cutting tools. He/she
must also enter any tool
corrections into the CNC unit and
mount/fix the tools in the holders.

Preparation work
The CNC programming software
as well as the specifications of the
machines used will be made
available to all competitors.
External specialists
The machine manufacturers must
supply specialists and service staff
for the software and the CNC
machines in adequate numbers to
ensure that the competition runs
smoothly. These specialists will be
available at all times before and
during the competition, as well as
during scoring of test projects.
Orientation
The competitors and the advisors
will get an orientation on site from
the specialists so they can
familiarize themselves with the
equipment. During this orientation
an actual test part will be
programmed, set up and executed.
Theoretical Knowledge
Interpretation and execution of
detail and assembly prints to ISOA and ISO-E standards.
Knowledge of materials used and
the correct machining process.
Material
Materials used for the Competition
may be :
Cold rolled Steel
Brass
Aluminum
Delrin
Each competitor will be supplied
with one piece of stock per project.
For a point-penalty the participant
may request a second piece of
material.
Workshop installation
The following machines and
equipment will be made
available for each competitor :
Workbench or worktable,
cutting tools, a basic set of cutters
for internal and external machining
and suitable holders.

General Information
Provided CNC machines will be
set-up prior to the competition and
will be available for an orientation.
During the orientation the
participants are given one piece of
stock material to practice.
During the competition each
contestant is given one piece of
stock per project. For a pointpenalty the contestant may request
a second piece of stock.
Due to the size and capability of
the turning equipment, competitors
in the CNC turning competition
may be asked to finish two
different projects in the time given,
where each test will count for 50%
of the total score.
Contestants are encouraged to
bring calculators and Machinery
Handbooks.
