Project description
During the restoration of the wooden windows of the Dresden City Museum, the restoration company Cottendorfer Tischlerhandwerk GmbH was faced with a complicated window geometry. The five central skylights were oval in shape, and the corner windows themselves were additionally slanted.
Angela Martin was responsible for precisely measuring these windows on site and providing a digital 3D CAD drawing with the help of a Flexijet laser measuring system.
Based on these measurements, the windows went into production, resulting in perfectly tailored windows.
Client: Dresden City Museum
Contractor: Cottendorfer Tischlerhandwerk GmbH, www.cthw.de
Operator: Angela Martin, Flexijet
Project summary
This calculation refers to the measurement of seven skylights, including the time required for movement during the measurement. For the three-dimensional measurement of oval contours and vertical supports in the CAD system, 10 minutes per window was sufficient. The time we saved and the additional advantages of measuring with the Flexijet device:
- Time required for conventional measurement: 12 hours
- Time required with Flexijet - 3 hours
- Time saved: 9 hours
- Efficiency and accuracy: immeasurable
