Accurate 3D scanning and CAD reverse engineering are essential for marine applications where geometry, fit, and integration must be reliable. Our services support the digitisation of vessels and boat components, enabling efficient workflows for retrofit, repair, inspection, and manufacturing. Using advanced non-contact 3D scanning systems, complex geometries such as hulls, decks, fittings, and onboard assemblies can be captured with high accuracy (typically better than ±5 mm, depending on scale and conditions). This ensures dependable data for engineering validation, dimensional control, and installation of new components.
Marine Applications
- Retrofit and upgrade projects
- Repair and replacement of damaged or obsolete parts
- Dimensional inspection and verification
- Integration of new systems and components
- Digital documentation for maintenance and compliance
From 3D Scan to CAD
Captured scan data (mesh) is processed and converted into clean, engineering-ready CAD formats such as STEP, IGES, or Parasolid. This enables:
- Accurate redesign and optimisation
- Manufacturing via CNC machining or 3D printing
- Long-term digital archiving of vessel components
- Improved communication between engineering teams
