Customized 3D services for museums and institutions
Tmoov3D supports museums, interpretation centers, cultural institutions, and public organizations in the design and manufacture of 3D elements tailored to their exhibitions. We produce tactile panels, reproductions, interactive pieces, presentation stands, and custom components designed to meet real-world usage requirements.
Each project is developed according to the visitor experience, the anticipated level of interaction, accessibility requirements, and installation constraints. We can work from an idea, an image, an existing object, or a 3D file to create a precise, sustainable solution tailored to the museum context.

Our solutions for museums
TACTILE PLAQUES
Raised reproductions designed to make artworks more accessible to visitors with visual impairments through clear tactile interpretation.
INTERACTIVE COMPONENTS
Buttons, handles and components designed to withstand repeated use in high-traffic exhibitions.
RELIEF REPRODUCTIONS
Transformation of images, artworks or objects into three-dimensional models adapted for display, interpretation and cultural mediation.
Designed to be handled by thousands of visitors
HEAVY USE
The design is adapted to the parts handled daily by a large number of visitors. The shapes, assemblies, and materials are designed to maintain their strength despite repeated use.
Sustainable materials
Materials are selected based on wear, impact, frequent cleaning, and the mechanical constraints of the project. Each part is optimized for its environment of use.
Simplified maintenance
Parts designed to facilitate inspection, cleaning, replacement, and future adjustments. This approach reduces complex interventions and simplifies facility maintenance.
A WORK TRANSFORMED TO BE DISCOVERED THROUGH TOUCH
For the National Gallery of Canada in Ottawa, Tmoov3D designed and manufactured a tactile bas-relief reproduction of Fernand Léger's work, The Mechanic. The main shapes of the composition were adapted to offer a clear and intuitive reading experience for blind or visually impaired visitors.
The project required transforming the image into a 3D model, adjusting the various levels of relief, and optimizing each contour for tactile perception. The result is a durable, precise piece suitable for repeated handling in a museum environment.

B2B COLLABORATION FOR EXHIBITIONS
A 3D PARTNER FOR EXHIBITION MANUFACTURERS AND INSTALLERS
Tmoov3D supports exhibition designers, CNC workshops, set builders, and installation teams who require custom parts that are difficult to produce using traditional methods. We handle the design, prototyping, and additive manufacturing of components ready for assembly or integration into a museum installation.
DESIGN AND TECHNICAL ADAPTATION
Creation or modification of 3D models according to your plans, dimensions, assembly methods and installation constraints. Each part is optimized for 3D printing.
PROTOTYPING AND VALIDATION
Rapid production of prototypes to check dimensions, ergonomics, movements and integration with other components before launching final manufacturing.
CUSTOM-MADE PARTS MANUFACTURING
Production of supports, cases, jigs, mechanical parts, decorative elements and complex components in small or medium series.
READY-TO-INSTALL PARTS
Preparation of drilling, fastening systems, assemblies and adjustments necessary to facilitate the integration of parts on the construction site or in the final installation.
NEED A COMPLEX PART OR PRODUCTION SUPPORT?
Send us your 3D files, plans, photos, dimensions, planned quantities, and technical constraints. We analyze the part's function, its operating environment, mechanical stresses, assembly requirements, and project deadlines to recommend the most suitable design method, material, and manufacturing process. You then receive a solution ready to be tested, assembled, or integrated into your final installation.
