Abstract: The CIRP (International Academy for Production Engineering) Conference on Computer Aided Tolerancing (CAT) is initiated and supported scientifically every two years by two CIRP Scientific Technical Committees (STCs): Design (STC Dn) and Precision Metrology (STC P) to address the emerging problems of CAT, which has a prominent role at the interface between product design and manufacturing. The 13th CIRP CAT Conference held at Zhejiang University, Hangzhou, China during May 11–14, 2014 was the successor to the twelve earlier conferences. We are pleased to publish in this special part issue a selection of six papers that were presented at the conference in Hangzhou. These papers cover a wide spectrum of current international research in CAT.

Key words: Computer aided tolerancing (CAT), Tolerance specification and standard, Tolerance design, Detection and measurement
