At Kenesto, we are proud to support the Edinburgh University Formula Student (EUFS) team, a powerhouse of innovation and teamwork. With over 170 members spanning across electrical, mechanical, software engineering, operations, statics, and an executive committee, EUFS exemplifies how collaboration drives success. Each year, the team designs and builds an F1-style race car, competing at the prestigious Formula Student competition at Silverstone, against top teams from around the globe.
EUFS’s Mission: Pioneering Innovation in Electric and Autonomous Vehicles
EUFS is currently developing the UK’s first autonomous electric car, with plans to debut it at FSUK 2025. In addition, they are designing an innovative Class 1 non-autonomous electric car for FSUK 2026, incorporating cutting-edge in-wheel electric motor technology. This bold move positions the team at the forefront of electric vehicle development, pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in automotive engineering.
Kenesto: Empowering EUFS for Success
Kenesto’s support has played a crucial role in EUFS’s success. Initially, the team used SolidWorks for CAD design and GrabCAD for file management. However, once EUFS discovered Kenesto’s cloud-based Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) platform, their design process underwent a transformative change. Kenesto’s platform has streamlined their workflow, making file management more efficient and collaborative. Now, EUFS team members, across all disciplines, have access to the latest design files at any time—ensuring seamless communication and faster decision-making.
By centralizing file management on Kenesto, EUFS has significantly reduced the time spent on version control and file retrieval, allowing the team to focus on what truly matters: innovation and development. This enhanced collaboration has positioned EUFS to stay ahead of the curve and continue delivering cutting-edge designs year after year.
