For the Friedesse Mill in Neer, 3D Maquettes designed a detailed model, complete with a protective dome and an oak information board laser-engraved with explanations and images. The setup brings the mill’s heritage to life for visitors. A valuable addition to the educational and tourist experience of this historic site.

For the Limburgs Landschap, 3D Maquettes produced a 1:1 replica of the WWII BMW 801 aircraft engine. The engine was fully 3D-printed in PETG plastic to withstand the humidity in the cave at Valkenburg where it’s displayed. Weighing around 180 kg, the model is an impressive tribute to a piece of overlooked history.

For Maurice Oostwegel, we created a miniature of Heerlen’s iconic “Lange Jan”, including its distinctive steps—of which he owns the topmost section. The model was used to persuade the city council to place it on a roundabout. Although the proposal was rejected, the miniature remains a unique tribute to the city’s mining heritage.

For Demarec, we produced two mini models of their demolition cranes at 9% scale, in the original company colors. The models served as eye-catching highlights at trade fairs, offering a realistic impression of the machinery in a compact format.

For Eco-Chalet BV, in just one week we created a detailed model of an energy-neutral chalet, complete with miniature furniture to enhance the sense of space. The scale model was displayed on a luxurious oak base and served as a showpiece at the trade fair. A powerful, tangible tool to present their sustainable concept.
