Build · Template Studio

Your instructions. Your house style.

Template Studio is a visual designer for work-instruction layouts. Start from professionally built manufacturing templates, shape them to your brand and standards, or design your own from scratch, then publish once for both paper and screen.

In short

Template Studio gives every printed and exported instruction your company layout: logo, header, revision block and page structure. Start free from a HEKA template shaped by aerospace and automotive, or build your own in minutes. Once published, a template is locked and every change is traceable.

Why it matters

Templates in traditional tools eat engineering time.

In Word or Excel, getting a template to match the printout takes hours of formatting, test prints and small fixes. Change the page size or add a field and the layout breaks, so someone spends another afternoon repairing it. Meanwhile every engineer keeps their own copy, nothing looks the same, and nobody controls which version is on the floor.

The difference

Stop fighting the layout. Publish it once.

With traditional tools

  • Hours of formatting and test prints before a template matches the paper
  • A new page size means rebuilding the layout by hand
  • Every engineer works from a slightly different copy
  • Anyone can edit the file, and nobody knows what changed

With HEKA Template Studio

  • What you design is what prints, from the first sheet
  • Change the page size or structure once, in the studio
  • One company template, used by every engineer
  • Locked once published, with every change traceable
What you get

Design once. Publish consistently, forever.

Free template library

Shaped by aerospace and automotive

Start from HEKA templates shaped by aerospace, automotive and other complex manufacturing, where documents have to be right. They are free, and every new template we publish is free for you too.

Ready in minutes

Your own template, in minutes

Prefer your own layout? Build it in the visual studio in a few minutes and start using it straight away. No developer, no IT project, no waiting.

What you see prints

No more test prints

The layout you design is the layout on paper. Change the page size or structure once in the studio, instead of reformatting document after document.

Controlled asset

Locked once published

A published template is a controlled digital asset. Nobody can quietly edit it, and every change becomes a new version you can trace back: who changed what, and when.

Your house style

Match your brand and standards

Set typography, colours, logos, headers, footers and the fields every instruction must carry. Every document that leaves your operation looks consistent and controlled.

Design your own

A visual designer, not a rigid form

Place step cards, images, specifications, safety callouts and part tables exactly where you want them. Build the layout your quality team signs off on.

From template to instruction

The template does the layout. Your team does the work.

  • Engineers add steps, photos and specs, not formatting
  • Required fields and safety callouts are enforced by the template
  • The same template renders a clean A4 sheet and an operator screen
How it works

From blank page to controlled layout.

Part of one system

Connected to the rest of your factory.

Every HEKA product shares the same lines, stations, standards and people, so a change in one is visible in the others.
