It’s Boating Season – and Agile Manufacturing is On Deck with Laser Scanning & 3D Printing
From aging cruisers to ocean racers, custom-fit replacement parts can be nearly impossible to find. That’s where laser scanning, reverse engineering, and 3D printing step in — and Agile Manufacturing Inc. is delivering high-performance, production-ready results just in time for boating season.
Here are just a few reverse engineered and 3D printed marine components we’ve completed recently:
- A precise anchor locker cover for a Beneteau 36
- A complex boom end reefing line sheave and block system for an Open 40 round-the-world racer
- A streamlined winch cover for a Beneteau 45
- A Dorade deck vent cover, reverse engineered using high-resolution laser scanning and 3D printed for a perfect fit
Using 3D scanning, we capture the exact geometry of worn or unavailable marine parts and digitally rebuild them in CAD. From there, our expert team uses industrial-grade additive manufacturing to produce accurate, durable replacements—often with improved performance or material properties.
Whether you’re upgrading race gear or restoring a legacy cruiser, our marine 3D printing services can reproduce complex boat components with speed, precision, and reliability.

Fit-ready CAD models for future manufacturing
Got a part that’s cracked, missing, or impossible to replace? Agile Manufacturing Inc. can scan it, model it, and print it. Regardless of material needs there is an Additive Manufacturing solution available. Composite parts as strong as metal but light weight, water tight and environmentally stable materials for all conditions. Take the worry out of repairs and just focus on enjoying your time on the water and out of the office.
Let us help you keep your vessel on the water — not in the shop.
