How it works on your site
The ICON Titan is a diesel-powered, track-mounted gantry printer that extrudes concrete wall structures on residential job sites, with the first-generation Vulcan handling all 245+ completed structures to date. The system covers two subtasks within 3D concrete construction: automated material mixing and feed via the Magma system, and layer deposition of structural wall assemblies certified under ICC-ES ESR-4652. ICON has shipped since 2019; the Titan entered commercial sales to third-party builders in 2025.
Layer Deposition (Printing)
Titan prints walls from a 4-boom serial arm on steel-shoe tracks, with a 6-degree-of-freedom printhead, a 70 ft reach radius and print heights to 27 ft across a 40 by 100 ft footprint. It extrudes at up to 16 inches per second and 3 cubic yards per hour. Setup takes two to three hours, and two operators run each print.
Material Mixing and Feed
The Magma mixing system adjusts the concrete formulation based on site weather conditions and feeds the P10 pump for continuous extrusion. ICON delivers FormCrete material to the site; no third-party concrete is compatible with the system.
