End to End - Product Design
Engineering & 3D Printing Solutions
Developing innovative design & engineering solutions from concept to production. Optimised to take advantage of the benefits of 3D Printing
Colaborative Ideation
Working with you as your solutions partner every step of the way. From understanding your vision, market, requirements, and brainstorming concepts, to choosing the best materials and manufacturing process for your application
Design Development
Taking these concepts, defining requirements, then taking through the design-build-test product development cycle. Finding the optimal path for each client/project to achieve a successful, cost-effective product/part that performs, is manufacturable, and is reliable.
Reduce, Reuse, Renew, Recycle:
Not only does 3D printing use very small amounts of energy to produce parts. All our energy comes from microgeneration and renewable sources. We also encourage clients to use naturally sourced, renewable, recycled or recyclable materials.
Circular Economy
CAD
Computer Aided Design
CAD is one of the primary technologies used daily at Hexa³. It efficiently aids in developing an idea into reality, to optimise designs for manufacture, engineering detail and visualisation. CAD is a tool that enables; agile, iterative design development from concept through to production.
Analysis
Simulation & Testing
If you have something that keeps failing, hasn't been designed to the correct requirements or is over-engineered. We can help optimise a design for manufacture, particular use cases and testing. Whether it be through FEA/CFD simulation or helping with setting up your tests in house.
SLA
Stereolithography
SLA uses a laser to cure and build seamless layers of photopolymer resin to form an object, with high precision and accuracy. This is the closest to moulded plastic components. Modern advancements in resins have enabled this technology for use in engineering and many more applications.
MAX build size: 325x200x300mm
FDM
Fused Deposition Modeling
With FDM, a filament of thermoplastic is heated on average to 200ºc and extruded in lines to fuse layers of plastic to create an object. Being the most affordable 3D printing method, this is ideal for prototyping components and enclosures. With many material and colour chooses, many things are possible
MAX build size: 400x250x500mm

About Hexa³®
Hexa³ ® was born through a necessity. A necessity to think differently and change the way things are done. To think about what can be done rather than what cannot, to find solutions to problems. To enable, not disable. With product design and 3D printing, possibilities are endless and ideas come to reality.
The mission at Hexa³ ® is to provide high-quality end to end designs, prototypes and parts in collaboration with the customer needs and exacting specifications. Making it easier for you to access quality, reliable solutions. To customise and validate ideas, all in a cost-effective and more environmentally sustainable way.
The Vision
Hexa³ ® is a small business that aims to offer a professional, high quality and personalised experience, to all customers. Remaining optimised to not only offer personalised 1:1 service but to also reduce overheads and carbon footprint, so those savings can be passed back to the customers.
Often companies are so focused on growth; their service, costs and products suffer as a consequence. We focus on being consistent, sustainable and reliable.
Product Design & Additive Manufacturing are complex, but we can enable you to find new opportunities.
