Robotic Large Format Additive Manufacturing Platform IMTS Showcase

Introducing its robotic large format additive manufacturing (LFAM) platform for the first time at a major US manufacturing tradeshow, Caracol, will showcase its advanced technology at IMTS, Chicago, on Sept. 9th-14th, to demonstrate how manufacturers can produce industrial large-scale 3D printed parts with more efficiency, flexibility, and sustainability.

Via live on-booth 3D printing with its partner, KUKA, (booth #236807, West Hall), visitors will be able to get an up-close look at the capabilities of LFAM via Caracol’s innovative flagship Heron AM integrated AM platform. This modular hardware-software robotic system works on 6+ axes to enable manufacturers in key sectors like aerospace, automotive, energy and maritime, to produce thermoplastic composite parts with very complex geometries and with no scale or shape limits. Additionally, demonstrating the disruptive potential of LFAM and robotics for industrial scenarios, Caracol will showcase various customer projects and applications at its booth (433039, North Hall).

“IMTS’s expanded focus on additive manufacturing and automation this year highlights the growing impact of these technologies in industrial supply chains. Since our inception, we’ve harnessed robotics to revolutionize large-scale 3D printing, enabling unparalleled efficiency, flexibility, and geometric freedom that conventional methods can’t match. We’re excited to showcase these capabilities through our customer projects at IMTS 2024,” comments Violetta Nespolo, Chief Marketing & Strategy Officer at Caracol AM.
