Submit Your Part!

The Cool Parts Showcase, our contest to find the next subjects of The Cool Parts Show, is now open for submissions! Finalists will be displayed on the expo floor at the Formnext Forum, August 28-30. We’ll announce the winners at the Forum and the parts that will ultimately be featured in episodes of the show.

Details

Finalists for each category will receive complimentary registration to the conference and the chance to display their cool parts. Winners will be chosen by popular vote and announced by The Cool Parts Show co-hosts Peter Zelinski and Stephanie Hendrixson during the event. Each winning part will be featured in its own episode!

Eligibility

The contest is open to manufacturers, designers, students and any user of 3D printing for functional end-use parts. Parts must be the submitter’s original design (i.e., you cannot print something cool off Thingiverse and submit it). 

2021 Winners of The Cool Parts Showcase:

Best Production Part

DMG MORI for the AKZ FDS adapter.

 

Best Bespoke Solution

DiveDesign and Braskem for the custom doggy wheelchair.
