Metrology

Get it right first time with the insights from last time. Hexagon’s metrology solutions help you to close the gap between design intent and real-world operation with actionable, real-time insight that revolutionises upstream and downstream decision-making.

The world of metrology is changing. The rest of the manufacturing world is waking up to the incredible power of product quality data. Metrology and metrologists are now at the coal face of innovation. The quality team can embed vital insight ensuring design, manufacturability, production, quality, productivity and performance can all be optimised. Our metrology technologies put that kind of power and insight at your fingertips. They are the key bridge between the physical and virtual worlds, bringing real-world data into the digital domain to power smarter manufacturing approaches

Production

Push production to the limits. Make what they said was unmakeable. Bring innovations to life in incredible new ways. Our solutions equip manufacturers to turn imagination into reality, improving quality of life for all. Spanning machining, forming, casting, moulding, joining, 3D printing, or a combination of multiple processes – the production floor is where components take shape.

Production is where product quality is set in stone, metal, wood or composite and the pursuit of manufacturing ‘right first time’ is the highest priority. It’s the manufacturing process phase where productivity really matters – efficiency and throughput are essential to remain competitive – costs must be controlled and downtime avoided. This is where you need design intent to be maintained through the production cycle.

Design and Engineering

Hexagon software sits at the leading edge of production innovation making it possible to produce things that were previously unthinkable by entirely rethinking both products and production through design, materials, manufacturing and process innovation.

We passionately believe that if it can be imagined, it can be made, so we develop our solutions to remove all barriers to possibility.

By harnessing the power of data and technology our tools unlock new avenues for exploration and provide extra lift to the creative process.

About

Quality – the biggest needle mover in manufacturing

Whether you design, invent, manufacture, test or service products – ultimately, it’s about people. No matter what we make as manufacturers, every component, part or product is made to improve our quality of life.

Quality means many things to manufacturers. It’s an international standard. It’s a legal definition. It’s a checkpoint controlling what leaves the factory. To the end user, it’s none of those things. It’s a feeling. Delivering this feeling is the foundation of long-term commercial success.

A quality-focussed strategy is the biggest needle mover in manufacturing today. Imagine any concern you have right now whether it’s agility, scalability or time-to-market – with one truly connected approach for quality you can not only put your worries to rest – you can develop incredible new capabilities that position your business for long-term success.

Rather than focussing on a specific area or a specific problem, Hexagon creates a holistic system for success.
Designed for seamless connectivity, this enables us to put your data to work to its fullest.

Extending way beyond the design, make and inspect phases of manufacturing, our solution unleashes potential across every phase of the business cycle, from planning and management to customer fulfilment. Entirely seamless, it transforms data from siloed asset into the very connecting fibre of your business, unleashing a multiplier effect across your value chain.

Fusing digital and real worlds, we create immersive digital twins of products, assets and facilities – this means you can test, explore and iterate entirely in the virtual world. This gives you the freedom to innovate, explore and scale up production, closing the loop on cost, quality, innovation and sustainability. By embedding advanced automation – optimisation is driven to new levels.

The most important step is to embed continuous improvement by leveraging generative, autonomous AI recommendations allowing you to create incredible products in incredible new ways.

Hit all of your business goals with one connected strategy for quality. Develop products that improve people’s lives.
