Design competition for micro 3D printing: AM Pioneers and BMF promote precise creativity

AM Pioneers is launching a design competition together with Boston Micro Fabrication (BMF) with a focus on micro-precision 3D printing. The aim is to design a component that demonstrates the potential of additive manufacturing in the micrometer range. The competition is aimed at developers, engineers and designers with an interest in high-precision manufacturing technology. The closing date for entries is May 1, 2025, with the award ceremony taking place a week later at an industry event in Esslingen.

The focus is on the S240 printer from BMF, a micro 3D printing system with an XY resolution of 10 µm, which is based on Projection Micro Stereolithography (PµSL). This technology enables the production of functional micro components with fine details and complex geometries while maintaining high dimensional accuracy. Submitted designs should exploit the possibilities of this technology in an exemplary manner, taking into account both functional and design aspects.

Entrants must submit their design in a common 3D format such as STL or OBJ and include a brief technical description. According to AM Pioneers, the main aim is to combine creative approaches with technical feasibility. The winning design will be printed in its entirety on a 100 × 100 mm S240 build plate and presented at the networking event. According to the organizers, the aim of the event is to provide new impetus in the micro 3D printing community and promote professional exchange.

BMF not only contributes its printing technology to the competition, but also provides advice. The competition offers a platform to make experimental and functional designs accessible to an expert audience.
