Since the inception of Trihedron in 2020, we've encountered our fair share of challenges. Like many business owners, we found ourselves spending too much time dealing with administrative tasks, repetitive processes and everyday pain points that took our attention away from what we actually wanted to do, grow the business.

So, we decided to do something about it.

Our newest team at Trihedron is our software development team. We employed a few incredibly clever chaps, gave them the tools they needed, supported them, encouraged them, brainstormed with them and shared the challenges we'd experienced along the way.

We gave them a simple brief:
ā€œHere's our pain point. Make this go away.ā€

What they developed honestly blew us away.

Thanos is our internally developed business management system, born out of real challenges and built around the way we work. It wasn't developed from a theoretical business model or a list of features someone thought might be useful. It came from the frustrations we've experienced ourselves while running and growing Trihedron.

Although Thanos is still under development, we've started releasing individual modules, testing them in real-world conditions and fine-tuning the system as we go.

As we develop each module, we intend to involve real industry experts who understand the relevant processes, challenges and demands of their respective industries. Their practical experience and input will help us refine each module, ensuring that we're not simply building software, but developing solutions that address real-world business needs.

We are incredibly excited about what we've built so far, and this is only the beginning.

Our vision is to make Thanos available to other business owners who face the same challenges we experienced while building Trihedron.

Our goal is simple: to give owners more freedom from their businesses.

Software should work on your behalf. It should take care of repetitive tasks, simplify processes and give you back the time and headspace to focus on what really matters, your people, your customers and growing your business.

Because owning a business should be about building something, not spending every day fighting the processes around it.

We're proud of what our software development team has achieved, excited about the journey ahead, and looking forward to sharing more as Thanos continues to evolve.

Thanos by Trihedron. Built from everyday pain points. Designed to give you back your time.

We scanned the load box of a 2026 Toyota Hilux using the ZEISS T-SCAN hawk 2 for a pickup accessory designer.

The result: comprehensive, metrology-grade actual vehicle data ready to be used directly in the design and development of new accessories.

Accurate data. Better fitment. Less guesswork.

From the actual vehicle to design-ready 3D data.

Investing in your project's success.

We recently sent one of our experienced Robot Programmers, Kevin Meyer, to upskill directly with the experts at FANUC in preparation for our next installation in the US.

Kevin already has deep hands-on experience with FANUC robots, so why send him back to the classroom? Because staying current with evolving technology isn't optional in our industry, it's how we make sure every project we take on is delivered using the latest tools, techniques, and best practices.

It's also about relationships. Time spent training directly with FANUC's specialists builds the kind of trusted, direct connections within the industry that pay off long after the training ends.

In the video below, you'll see Kevin working hands-on with the FANUC CRX Cobot, a collaborative robot capable of operating safely alongside people, without the need for safety fencing.

This is what continuous upskilling looks like in action, and it's part of how we make sure our team is ready before we ever step onto a job site.

Even though Leon has been consulting for Trihedron since November 2024, supporting us with technical electrical expertise, he has naturally become an integral part of the team and a vital cog in the machine.

Originally from Comau, a powerhouse in production systems, Leon brings with him a wealth of line-building and machine-building experience. I (Manuel da Silva) still remember being a youngster seeing Leon for the first time during the installation of the W204 Mercedes-Benz production line in East London, where he served as the Project Controls Lead. Anyone in the industry understands the level of responsibility and expertise required for a role like that.

Leon’s knowledge of electrical systems design is of an exceptionally high level, yet he has always remained humble, approachable, and easy to talk to. Beyond his technical capability, he is simply a great guy to work with and someone who naturally earns the respect of the people around him.

We have massive respect for Leon and are incredibly grateful for the opportunity to tap into his knowledge, experience, and guidance.

We are fortunate to be surrounded by exceptionally talented advisors, and we are excited to announce that, as of 1 June, Leon Fouche will officially join Trihedron on a permanent basis as Project Manager for Trihedron Electrical.
