Yachting and marine: CNC plugs, masters and tooling support
We support marine composite manufacturing with plugs, masters and tooling components used for hulls, decks, superstructures and interior elements.
The focus is production‑oriented tooling: stable geometry, clear split strategy and surfaces aligned with finishing and mould workflows.
- Plugs and masters for GRP mould tooling
- Large parts planned for segmentation and assembly
- Surface intent aligned with mould‑making workflow
- Practical delivery for sensitive cosmetic zones
How we support marine composites
Marine components often combine large scale with surface expectations. We align the plug/master route with the mould workflow so you can reach production without unnecessary rework.
If you have a preferred surface system or existing mould constraints, share them early. It helps us define allowances, edges and split logic correctly from the start.
Typical applications
Plugs and masters for hull and deck moulds
Production‑oriented plugs prepared for reliable mould making.Split strategy aligned with mould logic and handling.
Large surface tooling with paste‑on‑core skins
Hard, machineable skins used on large cores for stable surfaces.Surface route agreed early to protect cosmetic areas.
Composite tooling components and templates
Templates and aids that improve repeatability in trimming and assembly.Delivery format adapted to transport constraints.
Interior and exterior geometry mock‑ups
Geometry used to confirm fit, layout and installation logic.Supports both short runs and larger series workflows.
What we help you control
- Surface quality and finish route readiness
- Split strategy and handling practicality
- Assembly logic for oversized tooling
- Repeatability of downstream trim and assembly steps
Services typically used
Marine tooling projects benefit from clear scope and early surface alignment.
We propose a route that balances stability, finish expectations and scale.
Models for composite moulds
Plugs and masters aligned with composite mould workflows.
Includes split strategy and surface intent alignment.
5‑axis and 3‑axis CNC milling
Core machining for large tooling and production aids.
Segmentation planned for transport and assembly.
Epoxy tooling paste routes
Hard tooling skins for large surface‑critical components.
Machined after cure for controlled surfaces.
Typical materials
Material selection is driven by stability, scale and surface expectations.
We recommend options once the mould workflow is clear.
Tooling board
Stable base for plugs/masters with good surface outcomes.Supports predictable machining and finishing routes.
Epoxy tooling paste skins
Durable skins for large surfaces where board is impractical.Used when surface performance must scale.
MDF (selected masters and templates)
Cost‑effective for robust templates and selected tooling.Best used with a defined surface protection route.
Workflow
Share files
Send CAD and a short note about the component and size.
NDA can be used when required.
Define mould context
We confirm mould workflow, split strategy and target surface.
Clear inputs keep timing predictable on large builds.
Machine and prepare
Machining and preparation for handling and finishing.
Cosmetic zones are protected in packaging.
Deliver for mould work
Delivery ready for your mould‑making and production steps.
Handover is aligned with your downstream process.
Typical deliverables
- Plugs/masters for GRP mould tooling
- Large surface tooling prepared for handling
- Templates and production aids for repeatability
