Large Format Additive Manufacturing

Build marine structures without moulds

From digital design to finished marine structures and components, with Large Format Additive Manufacturing (LFAM)

Bring us a component How it works

Illustrative representation

Vision

A more sustainable, circular and highly customised marine industry.

Mission

We turn digital designs into finished, certifiable marine components and structures without moulds, giving shipyards faster delivery, lower costs and more design freedom.

The solution

One accountable partner, from CAD to finished part.

We re-engineer the component, print it without a mould, finish it to yacht grade and deliver it with a certification path.

Why Water 7

Every option today buys a mould

Technology providers start from capability. Shipyards start from delivery risk. Water 7 connects the two: technology-agnostic, and owner of the customer interface.

We sell the finished part, not the printer.

AI-enabled engineering

Engineering know-how, optimised by AI agents.

Specialised agents connect CAD, FEM and DfAM under an orchestrator, and engineers approve every decision that matters. The agents learn from every part: design rules, process windows and costs become a proprietary database.

Faster iterations

Consistent DfAM rules

applied on every job

Traceable decisions

from design intent to part

Machines can be bought; our data cannot.

The agentic workflow turns every part into proprietary manufacturing know-how.

How we start

Start with one component.

A light, data-driven path, checked quickly on 3–5 real parts.

Scope

NDA, data owner, go / no-go criteria

Screen

3–5 candidate components

Compare

Mould cycle vs printed cycle

Prototype

Engineer, print, finish, test

Decide

Go, conditional go or no-go

Then

Recurring supply

The technical director gets

A part they can inspect and trust, with nothing new to house, staff or maintain.

The owner gets

Customisation that sells boats, without capex or technology risk on the yard.

Our comparison rule: same function, same final quality, same process boundary. We compare the finished, painted, deliverable part.

Ecosystem

The partners who make it possible.

Marine engineering, certification and operations experience, plus a partner network that shortens industrial deployment.

Technology partners

Identified: large-format AM cells and processes

Universities & R&D

Simulation, materials, testing

Certification bodies

Class approval path

Shipyards & suppliers

Use cases and pilots

Let's talk

Bring us a component.

Shipyards

Bring us a component, a geometry or a problem. We assess whether it can be built without a mould, and at what total cost.
