Caracol was born from the idea of pushing the limits of AM, beyond what was possible.
That idea was brought to life by evolving the possibilities of Additive Manufacturing on scale, shape, and materials with HERON AM.
HERON AM is Caracol's Large-Format Additive Manufacturing system: a robotized extrusion head, with direct and continuous feeding of composites and polymers, a dedicated software platform for the most complex tool paths, and many more features to fully integrate all that is needed to manufacture advanced industrial parts.
The solution is one of the leading LFAM systems in the world, and the only one that is offered as a turnkey solution to maximize flexibility, process control, and performance for clients who want to manufacture parts on-demand and in-situ.
Caracol keeps pushing LFAM ahead expanding its solutions on metals.
The beauty of additive manufacturing is flexibility these technologies provide in terms of scale, shape and materials.
Starting from the expertise Caracol developed in advanced robotics programming, computational design, slicing, and path planning, they are leveraging these skills and applying them to a completely different process and material: DED, and specifically wire arc additive manufacturing (WAAM).
Together with leading research centers and players in the most advanced manufacturing sectors, we have been working on several research projects, with the aim of using this technology to produce large, finished parts with metals for sectors such as aerospace, railways and energy.
WSU Enhances AM Learning with Stratasys F370®CR Composite 3D Printer
About Weber State University
The Advanced Research and Solutions Center at Weber State University is an innovation and collaboration area for local industry, primarily in the aerospace, defense, and advanced materials sectors. In addition, the center provides access to R&D resources that include additive manufacturing while offering educational and practical opportunities for students.
The Challenge
Providing students and local industry with the best opportunities for success requires access to current and emerging technologies, including additive manufacturing. However, existing WSU additive capabilities relied on older 3D printers, which were slow and costly to operate, with few material options. This situation limited WSU's Advanced Research and Solution Center's ability to meet student and local industry needs.
The Solution: Composite 3D Printing
To strengthen its 3D printing capabilities, the university added a Stratasys F370®CR composite 3D printer to complement its manufacturing and fabrication equipment.
The F370CR operates with two composite materials and several other engineering-grade thermoplastics. The composite 3D printing materials include FDM® Nylon-CF10 and ABS-CF10, which incorporate 10% chopped carbon fiber for added strength and rigidity.
Composite 3D Printing at Weber State University
Adding the F370CR printer gives WSU the capabilities of a current-technology 3D printer with more material options, including advanced composite polymers. The F370CR 3D printer’s ease of use and consistent printing performance gives users a faster, more reliable means of developing 3D printed solutions.
Ultimately helping WSU achieve the facility’s goal of providing innovative and leading-edge tools for its current and future students and customers.

Bryan High School is located in Bellevue, Nebraska, a city 8 miles south of Omaha, and it is part of the Omaha Public Schools (OPS) school district. The school serves grades 9 to 12 and has built its curriculum around sixteen career clusters intended to prepare students to complete high school, begin work on a post-secondary degree, or enter the workforce. Bryan High School has a population of just over 2,000 students and 120 staff members.
The Transportation, Distribution, and Logistics (TDL) Academy is a four-year program of study within Bry-an High School for students interested in careers in transportation, distribution, or supply-chain management. The program uses a “Pocket Academy” approach, integrating technical instruction with academic content. Teachers from other subject areas work with the Academy instructors to incorporate curriculum and concepts into core academic subjects.
To give students the real-world experience needed to meet new career-ready requirements, Bryan High School partnered with First Book, a non-profit book bank providing books to needy children. Bryan High School is one of sixteen secondary school distribution centers for First Book. One of the objectives of this partnership is to provide TDL students with industry-recognized OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration) and forklift operator certifications.
Simlog’s new Backhoe Loader Personal Simulator puts you at the controls of a backhoe loader at work in a typical construction site. Both SAE and ISO joystick patterns are available, and changing the point of view during the simulation is easy with joystick buttons, keyboard function keys, and mouse controls.
Nine Simulation Modules of increasing level of difficulty begin by teaching basic skills and coordination in early exercises such as “Bucket Positioning” and “Stockpiling”. Later Simulation Modules culminate skills training with exercises such as exposing buried utilities with the backhoe bucket on "Buried Utilities - Perpendicular Excavation."
