Parametric Oloid Generator (STEP, Customizable, CNC & 3D Printing)
This is a parametric oloid model generated using an automated CAD system.
Unlike fixed models, this shape is not a one-off design — it can be regenerated with different parameters.
Specifications of this model:
Diameter: [X] mm
Construction: Convex hull of two orthogonal circles of equal radius, each passing through the other's center
Surface type: Developable (single curvature, can be unrolled to a flat sheet)
Use cases:
Mathematical and geometric educational models
Kinetic sculpture and rolling toys (the oloid rolls with a wobbling motion)
Museum, gallery, and design display pieces
Oloid mixer / stirrer prototypes
Mechanical design prototyping

You can freely adjust:
Diameter (10 – 400 mm)
and instantly download a STEP file.
Why this matters:
Most models here are static.
This system allows you to generate exactly what you need.
