5.1 Help for applicants

A complete application for inclusion in the evaluation process includes

*use simple (without assemblies) or structured parts list (with assemblies, improves comprehensibility)?
*Structured BOMs: use two or more levels (1.1 or 1.1.1 etc.)
*all components and assemblies are included?
*For all components and assemblies, the "Part number" is given (1, 1.1, 1.2 etc.)?
*In the case of structured parts lists, use as uniform an order as possible for the assemblies, e.g. (rack > drive unit > functional unit or similar)
*For all parts and assemblies, the number is given?
  • 5.For all parts, the "Part Type" is given (not for assemblies) Upload the parts list
  • 6.Upload the original CAD files in the original format of the software they were created with more info.
  • 7.Upload of CAD files in STEP format more info
  • 8.Upload technical drawings in PDF format or as graphic files (JPG, PNG, GIF), one drawing for each part, assembly, etc.
  • 9.Linking of each production part or assembly of the parts list to the corresponding PDF files.


General notes regarding the upload of files:

  • 1. Uploading graphics
*Search for file on local PC, make sure that file name is given with extension
*Fill in the "Destination filename" field:
*upload file
*The same files cannot be uploaded more than once, if a file has already been uploaded, it is sufficient to specify the file name with an extension in the "Destination filename" field
  • 2. Check the box "Ignore any warnings", if necessary


5.2 Help for reviewer

A new comment is opened for each problem of a part in the part list, as a sign that a problem is solved, the reviewer writes "OK, FINISHED" at the end.

Following checks are performed by the reviewers: I.

  • Completeness of the part list through comparison with the drawings for the entire project and the assemblies
  • Completeness of the information on the technical drawings
  • Accuracy of the information on the technical drawings
  • Completeness/correctness of information for standard parts and buy parts
  • Enough dimensioning or quality of the parts concerning their functions (plausibility check, intuitive check)

Reviewer instructions:

To review a project, it's best practice to start with the assembly instructions: Please go through them thoroughly and make sure all the information to build the entire project is there. This includes:

  1. Matching references to the components in the part list
  2. The processes to build special parts or connect parts are describe well and are easy to follow.
  3. And of course, please check if everything makes sense to you
