Challenge: a luxury refit without compromise Project description In collaboration with Yacht Pro Solution and main contractor Krištof Amon, the demanding project of upgrading the sailboat Irene was successfully completed. Krištof Amon designed a 5-axis CNC machining for the production of an MDF mold, which then served as the basis for the production of a fiberglass superstructure in polyester technology. A key step in this process was the precise 3D measurement of the entire hull, carried out with the Flexijet 3D system. Thanks to the millimeter-accuracy of laser scanning, the rounded surfaces of the hull were defined in advance, ensuring that the new superstructure would seamlessly continue the existing shape of the sailboat – without any deviations. Special attention was paid to the convex surface of the transom, whose complex geometry required the highest level of precision. Based on the digital model created in Rhino software, an accurate CNC program was generated, eliminating the possibility of errors in execution and achieving complete alignment of all elements. Project specifics In projects like this one, where the sailboat Irenei used to attract attention with her classic lines and maritime elegance, this upgrade further refined her silhouette. In addition to the technical aspect, the story gains special significance thanks to the fact that it was Irene who was chosen for the filming of the Hollywood film Afterburn, starring Samuel L. Jackson, Dave Bautista and Olga Kurylenko. According to the Slovenian media (24ur, Regional Obala, Slovenske Novice, Primorske Novice, Nova TV), Irene was an “Izola beauty” who conquered film producers because of her authentic beauty. The film was shot in Bratislava, and for the purposes of filming on the boat, the team from Izola had to adjust the structure and even modify the height of the mast — further confirming the complexity of the operation and the importance of precise planning The role of the Flexijet 3D system No manual sketches and measurement errors Forget about uncertain measurements, notebooks and measuring “by eye”. The Flexijet 3D system enables laser-precise digitization of spaces and objects in real time, even on curved and irregular surfaces such as a ship’s stern. The result? Reliable data after the first measurement – ​​without the need for subsequent visits or corrections. Faster preparation of drawings and models Traditional measurement methods often require additional days to draw up drawings and transfer them to CAD tools. With the Flexijet system, 3D measurement and modeling go hand in hand – measurements are automatically synchronized with CAD software such as Rhino, AutoCAD, ArchiCAD and others. This means that you can start preparing the final model for production on the same day. Saving time and materials Any measurement error can be costly: lost material, extra hours of work, frustration in the field. Precise measurement with Flexijet enables accurate planning of all phases of construction or reconstruction, thus reducing the need for subsequent adjustments, waste and unplanned costs. In shipbuilding, architecture and interiors – time = money. And Flexijet saves both. Precise base for CNC production When data is collected with Flexijet, it can be used directly to create molds and parts via CNC machines – without manual measurement transfers and additional “cleaning” of the design. In the Irene sailboat project, it was precisely this accuracy that enabled the creation of a mold for the stern superstructure without deviations – perfectly adapted to the existing shape of the boat. In short, with Flexijet you get: control over all phases, from measurement to implementation, speed and accuracy in one tool, the security of working on proven substrates.

Flexijet digitized these curved surfaces without difficulty and provided a perfect match between the existing hull and the new upgrade. As the Studio Element team says: Why is this project special?In addition to its technical excellence, the Ireneje Sailing Ship project is also culturally significant:– the boat was selected for filming a high-budget Hollywood film,– the preparation for filming was carried out by experts from the Society of Old Boat Lovers in Izola,– due to the film’s needs, Ireneje underwent adjustments that further enhanced the role of 3D measurements and modeling. Conclusion The Irene Sailing Ships project demonstrates how digital precision, innovation and a passion for craft can create something extraordinary – both technically and culturally. Flexijet 3D technology was the foundation for the realization of this sophisticated upgrade, and its success confirms that investing in digital accuracy is essential for high-standard projects – whether they are in the service of nautical or film.

Measurement and equipment of the sailboat Formidable 54ft Project description This project shows the comprehensive process of designing, technical preparation and furnishing of the interior of a 54-foot sailboat. The project required precise measurement of the interior dimensions of the sailboat in order to make maximum use of every available millimeter of space, while simultaneously ensuring the functionality and aesthetics of the interior.The software MegaCAD / MegaTISCHLERpro was used to complete this demanding task, which enabled detailed design and technical preparation of production. All interior elements were CNC processed in order to precisely match the shape of the hull of the sailboat, which made assembly in the limited space of the ship much easier. This method ensured efficient use of space, proving the value of advanced technologies in the nautical design industry.A key part of the project was the detailed process of measuring the interior of the sailboat, which was carried out using an integrated 5MP camera to photograph each measurement point. This method enabled precise mapping of the space and facilitated the interpretation of the obtained data. By scanning horizontal and vertical lines, a detailed 3D model of the ship’s hull was obtained, which eliminated the need to make physical templates or adjust furniture on site. Flexijet operator for 3D measurement and creation of measurement plans:Nikola Perković, CAD projektant Project summary The project of designing the interior of a sailboat is an excellent example of how the space inside the ship can be optimized with the help of technology, making it functional and aesthetically attractive.

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.
