“Superior Engineering Formula Student Team” with a new race car
A talented team of students
“Superior Engineering Formula Student Team”
has been building and improving their product – a smaller race car or formula – for many years. They strive for continuous progress, and we try to help them do the same, using
hyper
MILL
CAM software, which they use to create high-performance and precision drive parts in the race car. We are delighted to be a small part of this innovative project and to support the story of the development of the final product.



WHAT IS A "SUPERIOR ENGINEERING FORMULA STUDENT TEAM"?
The team
“Superior Engineering Formula Student Team”
is composed of more than 30 members from different faculties. Together, they have a wealth of knowledge in different fields, which, when working in synchrony, is the key to success. “Formula Student is an international engineering competition where the aim is to develop and build your own racing car and compete in competitions around the world.


THE AIM OF THE "SUPERIOR ENGINEERING FORMULA STUDENT TEAM"
The team of students has a common goal: to create a complex and comprehensive product – a formula. They then compete in various competitions around the world, competing against other student teams from other countries. Some of the drive parts are programmed using
hyper
MILL
CAM software.
For the team
“Superior Engineering Formula Student Team”
is definitely considered to be a progress driver, as they strive for continuous improvement. A month ago, they worked together to unveil a new race car that had been perfected over a long period of time.


WHERE ARE WE IN THIS STORY?
ANSWER:
hyper
MILL
CAM SOFTWARE
We stand by our belief that we offer the best CAM software on the market –
hyper
MILL. The latter, with its many modules such as Virtual Machining, Best Fit, Automation Center, MAXX Machining, etc., ensures the most efficient programming. Experts from the German company Open Mind Technologiesdeveloping
hyper
MILL CAM software, have ensured that programming today is highly automated and standardised, allowing more time for more complex tasks.
This year, we have again provided the team with all the necessary
hyper
MILL
licenses for smooth CAM programming. We believe that they have got to the production of complex components faster, but above all that the end products are precise and will serve their purpose for a long time, thanks to flawless workmanship.




WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF THE FORMULA STUDENT COMPETITION?
The aim of the “Formula Student” project is to develop and provide a platform for practical experience and networking between students from different faculties. It offers a unique way to test the theoretical knowledge acquired and put it into practice. Students acquire and develop skills such as product development, project management and teamwork. The competition is special because it is not just about the time a team puts its car on the track, but points are accumulated in both “static” (e.g. project cost, overall design) and “dynamic” (e.g. acceleration, durability and economy, traction) categories. In the end, the team with the most points in each category wins.
