We’ve seen some pretty big polymer 3D printers, but nothing quite as big as the University of Maine’s 3D printer with a 22,000 ft³ (623 m³) build volume. It holds the Guinness World Re… ...

Thermwood explained that they used their smallest 3D printer, the LSAM MT, which offers a print volume of 10×10 feet, to design sections up to 5 feet high. They are then chemically and mechanically ...

Also, the use of 3D CAD programs and CNC machining technology has made it possible to manufacture FRP boat hulls with ±1 mm levels of accuracy. After the introduction of our CNC machinery, we had ...

The demonstration Thermwood printed a 10ft section from a 51ft long yacht hull mold on a 10ft x 10ft large scale additive manufacturing (LSAM) MT, the smallest and lowest cost additive manufacturing ...

As far as the boat side of things is concerned, it’s a basic 3D printed single hull design. The innovation comes in the drivetrain, instead.

Tour 1: The exterior hull of the boat - Much of the recent repair work on the SS Columbia was focused on the hull below the waterline, and thus will be invisible when it is floating. The goal ...

The collaboration create a new process that enables BV to perform its rule checks without needing to recreate 3D models from 2D drawings by integrating the neutral Open Class eXchange (OCX) format.

“There are approximately 13,000 inshore fishing boats in Atlantic Canada, which means there’s a substantial potential market for the innovations we’re supporting. The Hull Design Efficiency Challenge ...

Large format composite pellets 3D printing firm Thermwood recently printed several sections from a 51-foot long yacht hull mold to demonstrate how a single hull mold may be sufficient to manufacture ...
