With a track record of success in implementing 3D printing solutions and a commitment to advancing STEM education, MakeOmnia fosters creativity and hands-on learning.

Hong Kong's dynamic business landscape demands constant innovation. MakeOmnia, a leading Hong Kong company, understands this and empowers businesses and educational institutions with cutting-edge 3D printing solutions and comprehensive STEM education services.

Established in 2015, the Hong Kong-based local company operates under the HK Cyberport Incubation programme. MakeOmnia’s core focus lies on affordability and user-friendliness, ensuring everyone can bring their visions to life through 3D printer development and providing comprehensive STEM education services.

It seeks to offer affordable 3D printing solutions to schools worldwide, allowing them to benefit from hands-on STEM education. To date, MakeOmnia has successfully implemented 3D printing solutions in over 40 schools across Hong Kong.

MakeOmnia's innovative approach has been recognised by various prestigious organisations. Notably, they won the Hong Kong Tech 300 Angel Fund (2022) from the City University of Hong Kong, beating out over 1,000 other startup applicants. Additionally, under the leadership of CEO Peggy Yuen, the company also won the Bronze Award for Best Innovation (Innovative Technology) at the Hong Kong ICT Awards 2015 and the First Prize for Best STEM Teaching Tools at the 23rd Hong Kong Youth Science and Technology Innovation Competition 2021.

Printing with the planet in mind

MakeOmnia prioritises responsible innovation by offering eco-friendly Polylactic Acid filaments or PLA filaments, derived from renewable resources like corn and sugarcane. PLA filament boasts several user-friendly benefits. Its smooth texture allows for high-quality prints with intricate details, whilst the low melting point minimises clogging and fumes.

Additionally, PLA is biodegradable, reducing its environmental impact. It is also an excellent choice for children, as it is derived from plant-based materials that make it non-toxic and safe for young users. With a vast array of vibrant colours available, creativity is unleashed without compromising on the environment.

Bridge the gap from 2D to 3D

MakeOmnia makes it possible to bridge the gap between imagination and reality through its innovative Draw23D software. This user-friendly programme allows anyone to effortlessly convert 2D drawings into stunning 3D models, making it a helpful tool for learning 3D design fundamentals and visualisation.

The Draw23D software also seamlessly integrates with Mago Printers, allowing users to bring their 3D creations to life by automatically generating STL files that are compatible with Mago Printers. Its user-friendly interface and intuitive controls make it accessible for both beginners and experienced users.

This practical feature encourages hands-on learning and experimentation, fostering a deeper understanding of 3D design principles.

A printer for every need

Understanding that one size doesn't fit all, MakeOmnia offers a diverse range of 3D printers catering to different needs and budgets.

Its MagoPrinter is the perfect entry point for individual creators or businesses who are exploring prototyping, given its compact and user-friendly design. It achieves high-resolution prints with a layer of thickness of 0.05 mm and is compatible with a wide range of devices. Perfect for artists, students, and anyone who loves exploring with their imagination, the Mago Mini Printer’s lightweight and stylish design meanwhile allows users to take their creativity anywhere.

MakeOmnia has also offered the educational 3D printer project TinyBoy since 2011. The TinyBoy 2 E10 caters to businesses and educational institutions seeking a reliable and affordable solution, whilst the TinyBoy 2 E16 builds on the E10, enhancing its capabilities for tackling intricate projects.
