Surveys
If your boat is in need of some TLC but you’re not too sure where to start then a survey might be what you need. Our team will survey your tubes and write you up a detailed report. We’re then always happy to discuss the survey in detail with you and advise whether a re tube or repair is required.
Inside the factory
3D Scanning Technology
3D scanning is a process that captures the physical shape and appearance of an object and converts it into a digital 3D model. It's a technology used in various fields, including our rib retubing and foam fender replication. Our design engineers use the 3D scanner to scan predominately inflatable collars, foam collars, bare hulls and yachts. The 3D scanner collects data points from the surface of an object using various methods, such as laser, structured light or photogrammetry. The scanner will record the objects geometry, texture and colour information. Our 3D scanner is completely portable so we use it in the factory daily and can travel easily with it.
Design technology
CAD
CAD has revolutionized the design and manufacturing processes, offering precision, efficiency, and the ability to create intricate designs that might not be feasible with traditional drafting methods. CAD facilitates the entire design process from conceptualization to final product or structure. It enables iterative design changes, improving efficiency and accuracy. CAD offers 3D visualization, allowing designers to see how a product will look before production. This aids in detecting flaws or making improvements early in the design phase.
3D Model
General Arrangement
A General Arrangement (GA) drawing is a type of technical drawing used in various industries, particularly in engineering, architecture, and construction. It provides an overall view and layout of a structure, system, or component, presenting its key elements and their relationships. General Arrangement drawings are crucial for conveying to our customers the intended design layout, allowing our clients to understand how different components or systems fit
together within a larger structure or project.
Design Consultation
We have a team of highly skilled design engineers. They are always happy to discuss any design and technical queries that you may have. Face to face or virtual consultations are always welcomed and we look forward to starting the process with you.
Custom Logos
We are able to produce high quality, laser machined emblems, logos, banners and even decorative pieces of any shape and size out of our Hypalon material. They usually come with a inner tube backing that ensures that not only the artwork remains whole but also can be stuck to any Hypalon product using the appropriate products. Our Design team is capable to extract any sketch from a physical older version of the pretended artwork, from a picture of said artwork or any PDF or CAD file. We are then able to replicate it to the best of our abilities into a newer, more durable version of your old logo or emblem. Please contact us for more details
