Key Highlights
Lays out 10,000–15,000 square feet per day with a single operator, turning multi-trade layout from weeks into days.
Delivers up to 1/16 inch layout accuracy at 600 DPI to prevent compounding errors over large floor areas.
Prints as close as 1.75 inches from walls, columns, and obstacles to maximize usable layout around congested areas.
Prints layout for multiple trades in a single pass so framing, MEP, and finishes can build directly off the same coordinated model.
