Apartment “Plan”

Apartment “Plan” Project description Measurement of the position for a custom-made kitchen.The specific floor plan of the kitchen and living room requires a special approach to measurement and design. Flexijet once again proved to be the perfect solution as a tool for kitchen implementation from the very beginning to completion.With the Flexijet device, we took accurate CAD measurements of all relevant positions in the space. After designing the furniture with the MegaTISCHLERpro CAD/CAM software, we received high-quality technical preparation for making furniture on CNC machines. The only manual work in this case was the surface treatment and production of the kitchen worktop and the island from solid oak wood, which were made by the diligent hands of our carpenters using the conventional carpentry method.During assembly, we projected all the anchoring points into the wall again with the Flexijet device so as not to waste additional time on determining the position of the furniture in the space and marking the drilling locations for hanging kitchen furniture elements and living room shelves. Client: Interior designer Ivana Kuzmic, academic painterContractor: Studio Element d.o.oProject manager: Edo Aganović Project summary This project is another in a series of successful projects that testifies to the uniqueness of Flexijet.

3d measurement and production of a curved handrail

3d measurement and production of a curved handrail Project description The project in the Church of Our Lady of Lourdes in Zagreb began with a detailed measurement of the positions on the stairs to create a curved handrail. This task required special precision due to the uneven, irregular and rounded walls inside the church. In order to obtain the most accurate result, we applied advanced Flexijet technology, which enabled digital mapping of the walls – crucial for the further development of the project.After successful digitization, the team set about creating a detailed 3D model of the space and handrails. This step was crucial for understanding the complexity of the space and for production planning. The 3D model of the handrail was used to create CNC files for the individual handrail segments.The handrail was manufactured using a method of laminating massive slats, which were simultaneously bent in a mold. This process required a high level of skill and precision, as each handrail segment was unique and tailored to the specific measurements and curvatures of the wall.MegaCAD software was used to develop the rounded surfaces, which allowed for the creation of the exact appearance of each slat.

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
