Rudder

Project: Reconstruction of a damaged part

Mold

Rudder reconstruction without a hand-made plug: the male mould was 3D printed in two halves, ready to laminate and integrate into the wooden structure. Three kilograms, three hours of printing, twice as fast as milling.

Problem

Difficulty in the construction of a custom male mold with complex geometry.

Need

Easy to laminate and integrate into a wooden structure. Precision and accuracy. Speed.

Solution

3D print of male mold in two halves.

Benefits

No need to change the design of the bow chosen by the client, perfectly matching shape of desired piece, 2 times faster than milling; simplified and faster working process, easier to handle thanks to the lightness of the element; reduced waste, increased sustainability of the process and minor impact on the environment.
