Project: 43' catamaran, one-off
A custom 13-metre catamaran built without moulds: every non-developable part of the hull and deck was 3D printed with the UL-LFAM method, assembled on a wooden jig and laminated. About 200 kg of printed parts and 300 hours of printing replace months of pattern and mould making.
Custom catamaran is long and expensive to build due to the need of models and molds.
A process to cut time and costs to build a custom catamaran on-request.
Application of the ULLFAM method by NUGAE: 3D printing of all non-developable parts of the catamaran, assembly on a wooden jig, lamination, and complete boat assembly.
Fast production, custom fit, mold-free, high strength-to-weight ratio, and sustainable material use.
