Individual High-School Level Competition (3 students per school)
(Students must NOT be registered for the Advanced Manufacturing Series)
National Machining League is a high-school level individual competition testing CNC/Machining skills up to 3-axis surfacing. Schools can submit up to 3 students to individually compete and challenge each student’s ability to think critically, manage resources, and demonstrate skill and competency in machining.
This competition consists of a qualifying round project where the top individuals will be invited to compete in a National Championship for a chance to win $10,000!
Project MFG Competitions are based on the design, manufacturing, assembly, and testing of a “product” through a competition platform in which individual students compete against one another to complete a trade project.
The National Machining League Competition Playbook
outlines the following:
Qualifying Round: Qualifying rounds of competition are hosted remotely at the student’s school and facilitated by their instructor.
Starting October 18 2024, you will receive NML “kits” to fabricate a project at their school. Project photos will be submitted and judged on the online platform due on November 18 2024.
National Championship: Top National Machining League competitors will be invited to compete in a live, in-person competition at the National Championship with no cost to the school.
The top National Machining League competitors are eligible to win $10,000 for first place, $5,000 for second place, and $2,500 for third place!
