2024 STATE TECHNICAL STANDARDS • PAGE 35 CONTEST: CNC 2-AXIS TURNING PROGRAMMER CONTEST: CNC 2-AXIS TURNING PROGRAMMER CONTINUED CONTINUED Programming: The programming portion of the competition will provide competitors with access to a part drawing, step model, and Process Plan. It is the competitor’s job to use the provided documents to complete a cAm program. If run, the program would produce a machined part that is in accordance with the Process Plan, collision-free, and accurate to the part drawing provided. The drawing will be complete with multiple views making it easy for competitors to visualize the part and understand its geometry. The Process Plan will provide setup instructions, a sequence of operations, and tool data. Contestant numbers must be used as the name for the cAm file. If this step is missed, the competitor will receive 0 points. Remember, save early, save often. Competitors will be provided with project documents mentioned above on the day of their competition, but competitors must provide the following items to compete successfully. • (Required) Laptop or PC with access to CAM software (Mastercam or Fusion360) • (Required) Pen or pencil for notes or written calculations • (Optional) Basic calculator Recommended Competitor Preparation Set yourself up for success by committing to continuous learning.
