Caracol is an Italian additive manufacturing company that designs robotic large-format additive manufacturing (LFAM) systems for composite, polymer and metal parts. Founded in 2015, the company is headquartered in Barlassina, near Milan, with an innovation hub in Paderno Dugnano and a North American office in Pflugerville, Texas. Caracol operates as an independent company and has raised institutional funding, including a Series B round backed by Omnes Capital, Move Capital and CDP Venture Capital.
The product line includes Heron AM, a modular platform built around a six-axis robotic arm that uses additive extrusion to produce large composite and polymer parts, and Vipra AM, a robotic directed energy deposition platform for large-scale metal parts. Caracol pairs these systems with its own qualified polymer, composite and metal materials and with its Eidos software for machine control, applying the technology to tooling, molds, and large structural and end-use parts for aerospace, automotive and motorsport, architecture and construction, marine, and railway customers.
