SHERIDAN, WYOMING – May 27, 2025 – Hettich is redefining the digital landscape of furniture manufacturing with the introduction of intuitive assembly technologies showcased at interzum 2025. The fittings specialist is highlighting its latest advancements in user-friendly digital tools—from augmented reality and QR code guidance to a debut 3D printing portal—designed to streamline operations and enhance productivity across workshops and production facilities.
Empowering Workflows Through Digital Innovation
Hettich’s interzum 2025 presence is centered on supporting modern fabricators with practical, mobile-enabled digital services. Built on a “Bring your own device” model, these tools grant instant access to step-by-step instructions, adjustment aids, and training videos through smartphones or tablets.
- Access assembly help directly at the machine or on the furniture piece
- Optimize processes in both industrial production and small-scale workshops
- Respond quickly and flexibly to workflow changes with mobile support
“Hettich offers intuitive assistance exactly where it’s needed: directly at the machine or on furniture. Be it industrial production or cabinet maker’s workshop – the fittings manufacturer helps fabricators optimise processes, simplify workflows and respond to changes with flexibility.”
Debuting a 3D Printing Portal for Custom Assembly Tools
In a strategic first, Hettich is introducing a downloadable 3D printing portal, enabling fabricators to produce their own “jigs”—practical, compact tools that speed up and simplify assembly tasks. Show attendees can access free downloadable printing templates directly from hettich.com/3d-print and observe the process in real time at the booth.
- Print-ready templates for marking gauges and alignment tools
- Fast access via portal for immediate use in workshops
- Roadmap includes customisation and deeper product integration
“Showcasing its new 3D printing portal, Hettich is opening a further chapter in digital support.”
Real-Time Assistance with QR and AR Technology
Visitors to Hettich’s stand in Hall 08.1, C31/B30, can interact with digital helpers via AR interfaces and QR code-based tools, applied on two key machines: the AvanFit 300 Advanced and AvanFit 200. These tools assist with everything from machine setup to day-to-day assembly tips, aligning with real-world production demands.
- AvanFit 300 Advanced: high-end drawer assembly unit
- AvanFit 200: flexible, popular solution for cabinetmakers
- Embedded QR/AR tools enhance usability, onboarding, and speed
“Scanning a QR code on the machine housing takes fabricators straight to the Hettich Technical Assistant which provides help on assembling and setting the machine.”
Strategic Digitization in Line with Market Trends
The move underscores Hettich’s long-term digital strategy: bringing efficient, easy-to-integrate tools to a fragmented market that is increasingly prioritizing flexibility and speed. The seamless combination of hardware with intuitive digital support meets the rising demand for scalable and customizable workshop technologies.
“From portal to printing, visitors to the show stand will be given the chance to witness every step first hand.”
