Scope of Competition

3D design is the foundation of additive manufacturing, translating ideas into detailed digital models for precise fabrication. It enables customization, enhances design flexibility, and drives efficiency by enabling iterative testing and optimization before production.

In this competition, students are invited to design a specified part for 3D printing that meets given criteria, optimizing for minimum mass and maximum load capacity. The best CAD designs will be selected for printing at the PIAM3D facility. These 3D printed models will then compete for the top three positions, with winners chosen by a panel of expert judges.
