‘Established in 2013 as Scandinavia’s pioneer in 3D-printed sand molds, Hetitec has transformed into a full-service foundry offering advanced, flexible manufacturing options that drastically cut lead times, catering to sectors like automotive, energy, and machinery.’
Hetitec combines high-speed 3D printing with traditional molding processes to produce complex parts weighing up to 650 kg in iron and 500 kg in steel. The company operates in a state-of-the-art multi-material facility at the TAKK campus in Tampere and is equipped with advanced Voxeljet printers that enable precise and cost-effective casting solutions. This capability is critical for customers who need complex parts quickly, as the use of 3D-printed molds eliminates the need for traditional pattern-making processes and allows design changes to be made at later stages. By reducing casting cycles from weeks to days, Hetitec is living up to its motto: “We cast it faster”.
‘Hetitec’s commitment to quality and innovation is underlined by their ISO 9001:2015 certification (PED and Lloyds register certifications pending), supported by a robust suite of engineering services, including casting simulations via Magmasoft, CAD modeling with Siemens NX, and rigorous quality control tests like spectrographic analysis; NDT methods and 3D scanning. From CAD simulations to finished, inspected castings, Hetitec provides end-to-end service as fast as within one week.’
The company's services are supported by state-of-the-art equipment and an experienced team that can work with a variety of materials and alloys to meet high standards in different industries. With dedicated customer support and sustainable production processes, Hetitec is a reliable partner for rapid prototyping and small batch production on a global scale.
