Description

Features

APPLICATION-FIRST APPROACH

Our large format 3D printing technology is designed with end-user needs at its core, developed from years of experience in producing parts for clients. We focus on ensuring high production quality and continuity for advanced industrial applications.

HIGH-PRODUCTIVITY PLATFORM

Our modular all-in-one platform integrates hardware, software, and automation to enhance flexibility, efficiency, and sustainability in manufacturing, and improve production control while reducing risks, with Caracol providing quick and reliable support.

QUALITY AS A SERVICE

Heron AM meets the highest production standards and is the first to be certified for demanding industrial requirements. We deliver precise and reliable technology, supported by comprehensive services to help you maximize your machines’ potential.

Extruders

Caracol’s extruders process composite fiber-reinforced thermoplastic pellets. According to the manufacturing needs different models are available, assuring cost-effective, performance, and quality.
The High Accuracy (HA) extruder is lightweight and compact to achieve agility, quality finishing, and precision. The High Versatility (HV) extruder flexibly adapts to diverse industrial needs and a broad range of applications.
The High Flow (HF) extruder drastically reduces print times. With its robust structure, high throughput, and temperatures, it processes an extensive range of materials maintaining high print quality and efficient deposition.

HF-Printing-Close-Up

Extruder High Accuracy - HA

Small-sized, lightweight, and compact – developed to provide agility: quality finishing, detailing, and precision. Ideal for finished parts, such as for design, furniture, and creative industries.

Robotic Arms

Robotic-Arms_01

Leveraging the flexibility of the 6+ axes movements, robotic arms allow Heron AM to manufacture parts with very complex geometries, including non-planar tool paths, and unconventional slicing at different angles such as 45° or 60. Robotics also allows to modularly set up the system with different arm sizes to satisfy specific needs on applications or production area. Furthermore, arms can be extended on the x-axis with a rail or on the y-axis adding a plinth. To provide the best automation solution, Heron AM can be setup with robots from KUKA to FANUC and ABB.

Software

Caracol developed its software platform Eidos Manufacturing, with years of experience in Design for LFAM, slicing strategies, and robotic cinematics. The software suite completes Heron AM’s hardware, ensuring full control and flexibility on the process.
With the 3D Path Planning Algorithms users easily set up the programming of complex tool paths in few steps, assuring maximum control also on the most challenging geometries, and on all production parameters.
With the IoT platform, it is possible to enhance the manufacturin process’ quality and repeatibility, starting from a data-driven approach that collects and analyzes data from every print.

Printing Beds

The printing bed is key to successfully print parts. Caracol has developed several models to fit all needs, customizable in terms of size.
The aluminum frame structure with interchangeable top panels, is a convenient and flexible set up. With a simple brim or raft it ensures stability throughout the job. With the simple stainless-steel bed, high rigidity and planarity, anti-corrosion, and durability are guaranteed.
The patented automatic bed for unmanned part clamping and unloading was designed by Caracol to guarantee automated production with great part stability. The aluminum slats structure allows mechanical gripping of the first layer. Rotating at the end of each cycle and releasing the printed part autonomously, this printing bed is ideal for continuous production.
