Features

Features for 3D print farms that need cleaner control.

Hexcore Flow brings printers, print files, filament, queues, inventory, product kits, build sheets, pricing, production runs, barcode and QR labels, restock requests, QC, and local 3D printer access and status visibility into one workflow.

Current product areas.

These are the core areas the app is organized around: set up the farm, run print work, prepare product packets, calculate the run, route shortages, and update inventory with confidence.

01

Setup and Fleet

Add printers, Hex Connect setup, print files, filament, maintenance status, shop areas, and routing details before production starts.

02

Print Work

Stage queue jobs, batch work, assign printers, track material demand, and move jobs through printing, cooling, QC, packing, and completion.

03

Product Production

Create product kits, build sheets, work instructions, parts lists, supplier links, production run math, pricing, labels, and print/PDF packets from one product workspace.

04

Product pricing calculator

Calculate landed cost, machine cost, labor, packaging, target margins, suggested prices, and pricing CSV exports from the saved build sheet.

05

Production run history

Save runs per product, reload a saved run, review run readiness, track completed runs, and keep run snapshots attached to each build sheet.

06

Safer run completion

Review what will be deducted, what finished stock will be added, and whether shortages remain before marking a run complete.

07

Inventory and restock cards

Track printed parts, hardware, inserts, nuts, bolts, magnets, packaging, consumables, printer replacement parts, photos, suppliers, and low-stock cards.

08

Shortage routing

Convert build sheet shortages into print jobs for printed parts and purchase/restock requests for hardware, packaging, consumables, and supplier items.

09

Printer routing and workflow board

Stage jobs, assign printers, monitor printing/cooling/QC/packed status, account for queue time, and keep maintenance lockouts visible.

10

Print/PDF packets and station cards

Print professional build packets with cover pages, parts lists, supplier sections, pricing summaries, completion checklists, and station cards.

11

Hex Connect

Pair Hex Connect, see connection status, assign printers and shop areas, and request supported printer status, pause, resume, cancel, and inventory-result workflows when the local printer setup supports it.

12

Partner Farm Network

Share selected work with approved partner farms, control job notes and file access rules, and keep shared production status organized.

Expanded farm operations.

Hexcore Flow now covers more of the day-to-day in-house print farm workflow: where parts live, which printer should run next, whether the file and printer are ready, and what happened after each job.

13

Smart bins and totes

Use normal shop boxes, bins, totes, drawers, shelves, racks, and scan cards to manage printed parts, finished goods, hardware, packaging, consumables, and replacement parts.

14

Dispatch and routing

Use printer routing tags, file routing tags, printer work windows, material checks, blocked-printer warnings, and due-date pressure to choose the next best run.

15

Production quality

Track failure reasons, closeout notes, partial plate salvage, file readiness, printer readiness, and production-history trends so problem jobs are easier to review.

16

Print-file performance

Review run count, success percentage, average time, average cost, total grams, thumbnail previews, and local G-code quick-read details when available.

17

Start-wave planning

Group printers by circuit or power group, space staged jobs, and export start-wave CSV plans for busy production windows.

18

Windows and Mac Hex Connect

Hex Connect downloads are available for Windows and Mac so a trusted shop computer can pair with the workspace and reach supported local printer setups.

Available on every plan, scaled by capacity.

Hexcore Flow keeps the core workflow open so users can understand the full system. Free, Starter, Shop, Farm, and Enterprise differ by printer count, monthly jobs, saved print files, production history, inventory capacity, and automation depth.

A

Core workflow

Printers, print files, queue, filament, inventory, labels, product kits, build sheets, production runs, pricing, reports, and backups are part of the connected workflow.

B

Growth limits

Free starts at 2 printers. Starter, Shop, and Farm increase capacity, with Farm supporting 12 printers plus unlimited jobs and print files.

C

Enterprise path

Enterprise is available for 13+ printers, larger shops, multi-location operations, and priority workflow support.
