3D measurement of steps and positions on the structure for point support spider fittings for glass

3D measurement of steps and positions on the structure for point support spider fittings for glass Project description One of the clients who recognized the benefits of the approach we constantly point out, which is increased precision while saving time and money, is the company Drvona from Karlovac. It has only been a year since the beginning of the successful cooperation between us. Never the less, the biggest benefit of Flexijet measurement, which Drvona quickly discovered, was reduced measurement errors and easier execution and assembly of their products. One of the projects we worked on together at the beginning of last year was the furnishing of a luxury apartment in the Podsljeme zone in Zagreb. We called that project Project M, and below is a part of it: pictures that show the final result of the 3D measurement, execution and assembly of the custom-made kitchen.

Wälderhaus – a synergy of architecture and innovation that accelerates construction

Wälderhaus – a synergy of architecture and innovation that accelerates construction Project description “WÄLDERHAUS” (House in the forest) – a project that causes admiration on an international level. As part of the International Building Exhibition (IBA Hamburg), this building is more than an architectural achievement – it is a manifestation of environmental awareness and innovative spirit.The architecture of “WÄLDERHAUS” represents a conceptually new approach to multifunctional buildings. Built at the main entrance of the former International Garden Fair (IGS), this building is a visual symbol of harmony with nature. The wooden facade, as if echoing distant forests, not only gives an aesthetic touch but also symbolizes the basic philosophy of the project – harmony with nature.Within the walls of the “WÄLDERHAUS”, the theme of “forest and wood” seamlessly runs through every corner, from interior to exterior, creating a sense of continuity and connection with the environment.During construction, emphasis was placed on precision and efficiency. The use of prefabricated wooden walls required a methodical approach, which was facilitated by innovative technological solutions. A critical part of the process was the precise placement of these walls, a task that was resolved with the help of advanced Flexijet 3D software and its ability to integrate 2D CAD drawings into an actual three-dimensional space. Project summary The efficiency of Flexijet 3D technology was fully demonstrated by comparing the time required to erect walls on three levels of a building. This 350% increase in efficiency is not just a number – it is proof of how innovation can transform the way we build and interact with the space around us. “WÄLDERHAUS” stands as a proof of the potential of technological progress in the service of sustainable development and construction excellence. Time required for conventional measurement: 21 days Time required with Flexijet – 6 days Saving time and money: 15 days, $18,000 Efficiency and accuracy: immeasurable Flexijet measurement Flexijet measurement Technical preparation

Measurement for planning and construvting a canopy with a curved wall finish

Measurement for planning and construvting a canopy with a curved wall finish Project description The primary task of the construction company specialized in the production of metal structures was to create a canopy that will provide covered access to the house. The client envisioned a canopy with three sides which would be placed above the front door and on the curved part of the blue wall. The implementation of the project was already under the threat of failure due to complications that arose during measurement. On the first attempt, it was impossible to accurately measure the curvature of the wall using a tape measure and a handheld laser. During the next on-site meeting, several company employees spent hours making templates 2 to 3 meters high. Unfortunately, this approach did not result in usable data either. Due to heavy rain, the cardboard templates became unusable.The solution to the measurement problem was found in the application of the Flexijet 3D laser measurement system, which allows simultaneous measurement and drawing. Contractor: Konrad Schwegler, FellbachClient: Privatni investitor Project summary Konrad Schwegler, the measurement service provider, successfully performed all the necessary measurements on site in just 1.5 hours. A full CAD drawing, with all the correct angles and radii, was immediately available. As a reliable basis for further planning, the three-dimensional DXF file was forwarded to the design department. Time required for conventional measurement: 10 h Time required with Flexijet – 1:30 h Time saved: 8:30 h Efficiency and accuracy: immeasurable Flexijet measurement Flexijet measurements AutoCad Display

Measurement of the inside of the ship

Measurement of the inside of the ship About the project: We participated in the interior design project of the ship with our 3D measurement service, in collaboration and agreement with the investor Peti treći d.o.o. The goal of the project was not only aesthetic enhancement but also functional improvement of the space to increase comfort and operational efficiency. The interior spaces of the ship Omišalj are characterized by complex geometries, including curves, irregular shapes, and arches, which poses a challenge for traditional measurement methods. Precision is crucial as any error can significantly impact the final design and functionality. To address this challenge, we used Flexijet measuring technology, which allows for extremely precise measurement of complex spaces in real-time. This technology employs laser scanning to create detailed digital models of the ship’s interior spaces, ensuring that every segment is measured precisely down to the finest details. After collecting the data, we created 3D models using MegaCAD software. These models served as the basis for the conceptual design of the interior, allowing designers to experiment with different configurations and aesthetic decisions without the need for physical changes to the space. After finalizing the conceptual design, the team used advanced 3D visualization techniques to create realistic representations of what the renovated spaces would look like. These visualizations were crucial for making decisions regarding materials, colors, and layout, and allowed the investors and ship owners to visually experience the planned changes before the start of physical works.
