Research,Design Analyse, Make, Test & Race

RESEARCH - Students conduct background research on theories and information to help them design their F1 car of the future.

DESIGN - Students design a car model using 3D CAD SolidEdge software from USA. F1 Team in Schools Malaysia recommends SolidEdge CAD Software, an academic license of this industrial engineering design software product is provided to schools register here for MOE approval.

ANALYSE - Students can analyse the properties of their model before manufacture. The Virtual Wind Tunnel software processes the aerodynamics of the car straight from the CAD file.

MAKE - The car design is converted into CNC code using CAM software. F1 Team International in Schools recommends EdgeCAM F1, The car is then manufactured using a Denford CNC Microrouter.

TEST - The manufactured car will be put into a mini wind-tunnel for physical aerodynamic test.

RACE - The student teams race their finished car to battle out on who has the fastest and most attractive car.
