Founded in 2022 by then 24-year-old Josh Wigley, Hyperion Systems offers Large Format Additive Manufacturing (LFAM), an advanced 3D printing process which produces large components for marine, construction, defence and education uses in a manufacturing-as-a-service (MaaS) model.
Advertised as a 'factory-in-a-box', the system is capable of 3D printing parts up to 10-metres in length using custom-built hardware, proprietary software and pellet-based plastic feedstock - either new or recycled.
It also has integrated machining capabilities, allowing parts to go from design to final product in a single setup.
Hyperion has backing from Perth businessman David Budge, who co-founded 3D metal printing firm Aurora Labs ltd, the company's chief technology officer.
