“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.”

With their innovative approach, Hetitec uses high-speed 3D printing combined with traditional molding to create complex parts weighing up to 650 kg in iron and 500 kg in steel. The company operates from a multi-material facility within Tampere’s TAKK campus, equipped with advanced voxeljet printers, allowing them to deliver precise, cost-effective casting solutions. This capability is critical for clients needing complex parts quickly, as Hetitec’s 3D-printed molds eliminate traditional pattern-making steps, enabling design changes even late in the process. By shifting from weeks to days in their casting cycles, Hetitec embodies their 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.”

Their services are backed by state-of-the-art equipment and an experienced team skilled in multiple materials and alloys, meeting high standards across diverse industries. With dedicated customer support and sustainable production practices, Hetitec stands out as a reliable partner for rapid prototyping and small-run manufacturing worldwide.
