3-D Computer Modelling

3-D modelling is undoubtedly a very useful tool. Though initially utilized for designing the delicate curves of underwater hulls, Robert McFarlane & Associates are now making increasing use of it. Not only for modelling the visual effect and appearance of -for instance- the superstructure, but also for more technical aspects of the ship design and the production process.

"We see 3-D computer modelling playing an increasingly important role in ship design & engineering and continue to invest in computer hardware & software, striving to innovate and training to keep abreast of the latest techniques & developments."
