Leveraging Laser Accuracy - Driving Repeatable, Millimetre-Perfect Builds
Step inside our production hall and you enter a world where every millimetre counts. At Holld Yachts, we utilise the Leica iCON iCS50 – a cutting-edge robotic construction sensor that delivers extraordinary accuracy throughout our build process – This technology allows us to digitally position the Holld 74 and future models, laying out reference lines in the moulds and mapping hull positions with supreme precision. What once took hours of manual setup now happens in minutes, captured with millimetre-level accuracy.
Our partner, Compromiss, plays a vital role in this process. Their expertise in carbon composites aligns perfectly with Holld’s commitment to precision. Together, we use the Leica system to fix positions in the workshop, register datum lines in the moulds and digitally orient the hull – creating a repeatable, highly accurate build environment that enhances both speed and quality.
Leica’s visual-measurement capabilities, powered by iCON trades software and accessories like the vPole and vPen, automatically track targets, compensate for tilt, and ensure flawless alignment – Every frame, bulkhead and surface is defined in three dimensions and checked against the digital model. Any misalignments are caught and corrected instantly, preventing cumulative errors that could affect performance or styling.
This digital-first approach brings immediate benefits: faster mould checks, cleaner line integration and a digital twin that remains throughout assembly. It enables agile customisation and structural confidence that traditional methods can’t match.
At Holld, millimetre-level precision is not just a standard – it’s a philosophy that supports every yacht we build. Our commitment to intelligent design, digital mastery, and uncompromising craftsmanship sets us apart in the world of luxury carbon catamarans.
