Tooling & Moulds

APPLICATIONS

The application

Tooling, moulds, and formwork are required in manufacturing and construction processes, particularly for projects in remote or time-sensitive environments. These components enable production and construction workflows, but are typically sourced externally with long lead times and high costs.

The challenge

Conventional toolmaking is slow, expensive, and often poorly suited to large-format, low-volume, or iterative production requirements.

01 /

Long lead times for parts or tooling

02 /

Dependence on freight and external suppliers

03 /

Limited flexibility once deployed

04 /

Delays impacting project timelines or operations

The solution

Hyperion brings production capability closer to where infrastructure is deployed, reducing dependence on distant suppliers, long lead times, and fixed tooling pathways.

Production closer to site

Large-format additive manufacturing can reduce vessel hull production from weeks or months to days, supporting faster prototyping, iteration and deployment.
