Hexicated 7-orthoplexes explained

In seven-dimensional geometry, a hexicated 7-orthoplex (also hexicated 7-cube) is a convex uniform 7-polytope, including 6th-order truncations (hexication) from the regular 7-orthoplex.

There are 32 hexications for the 7-orthoplex, including all permutations of truncations, cantellations, runcinations, sterications, and pentellations. 12 are represented here, while 20 are more easily constructed from the 7-cube.
