Create free-form and complex marine superstructures.
T-Splines simplifies the creation of marine superstructures. Whereas numerous CAD programs aid in the formation of the below-water boat hull, creating a fair superstructure is difficult as designs become increasingly freeform and complex.
I believe that [T-Spline] technology is poised to significantly influence the future of ship design tools and methodologies.”
George Hazen, Technical Director, DRS C3, Advanced Technology Center
T-Splines introduces an unparalleled way to generate manufacturable marine superstructures. Because T-Splines can export as an IGES file and also is tightly integrated into Rhino, the T-Splines surfaces fit nicely into your overall design. Traditionally, creating detailed superstructures may take over 300 steps. Using T-Splines, the step count can be reduced by over 10 times.
T-Splines can be used to quickly produce a prototype. The model can then be exported to NURBS for manufacturing.
