3D printing in construction is transforming the sector, enabling automation well beyond wall printing. EvoConstructor®, the multifunctional robot by Evocons, combines 3D printing, AI and robotics to industrialize both on-site and off-site construction. Its modular system, interchangeable tools, and self-lifting capability make it the most advanced and versatile solution on the market.
What is EvoConstructor and What Makes It Different?
EvoConstructor® is not a conventional 3D printer, it’s the 2nd generation of construction printers. It’s a multifunctional robot designed to automate from printing to finishing, integrating:
- Multifunctionality: prints, pours concrete, levels, tiles, plasters and polishes.
- Plug & Play modular system: switch tasks using different modules without replacing the equipment.
- Self-lifting: builds vertically without scaffolding or cranes.
- Flexible use: works both on-site and in industrial prefabrication environments.
✩ Internationally patented technology validated through real-world projects in Spain.
Key Applications 3D Printing in Construction
Thanks to its modular system and multifunctional design, EvoConstructor® adapts to different types of projects and construction needs, from single-family homes to large buildings, including prefabricated elements and research-driven prototypes.
On-Site Construction
EvoConstructor® installs directly on-site, enabling:
- Adaptation to any terrain, including constrained logistics (urban cores, islands, basements).
- Execution of single-family homes, multi-storey buildings, and unique structures with no height limitation.
- Automation of over 60% of the construction process: printing/pouring, leveling, tiling, flooring and finishing.
- Real-time process control, waste reduction and timeline optimization.
Ideal for fast-execution projects requiring precision, design freedom and high-quality vertical construction.
Industrialized and Prefabricated Construction
In factory settings, EvoConstructor® enables:
- Millimeter precision in panels and structural components.
- Continuous, efficient production flow that optimizes staff resources.
- Flexible design for complex geometries (stairs, beams, urban furniture).
- Efficient material usage and agile on-site assembly under controlled conditions.
Perfect for projects prioritizing precision, speed and scalable off-site construction.

R&D Projects
Accelerates innovation cycles and testing of new processes or materials, reducing time and human resource needs.
FAQs: EvoConstructor Applications
How much does it cost to build with EvoConstructor?
Depends on project design and scope. Automation brings up to 30% savings in execution, 25% in indirect costs and 50% in timelines. Local materials from €0.01/kg further reduce costs.
How many people are needed to operate it?
Just 3 operators: a lead operator and two assistants for printing supervision and logistics.
What is EvoConstructor’s modular system?
A scalable system (3×3×4 m to 24×40×40 m) that integrates task-specific tools to fully automate the building process with traceability and quality.
What maintenance and warranty does it include?
Basic daily/weekly tasks by trained staff, plus biannual technical servicing by Evocons. Includes 2-year warranty and free spare parts kit.
How long does it take to install?
A standard system (12×18×9 m) takes just 7 days to be operational, including assembly, calibration and training.
Can it adapt to any architectural design?
Yes. Evocons guides designers according to UNE-EN ISO/ASTM 52939:2024 standards to ensure full technical and legal viability.
Is EvoConstructor suited for prefabrication?
Yes. It enables full automation of prefabricated elements with complex geometries and digital control in any factory setting.
Are there real-world examples?
Yes. EvoConstructor has been deployed in pilot projects and full-scale buildings, including Spain’s first 3D-printed building with 60% automation.
Conclusion
EvoConstructor represents the next generation of 3D printing in construction: validated, multifunctional, and far beyond simple wall printing. Evocons waited to enter the market with a tested, real-world-proven solution that automates multiple construction phases with precision, speed and sustainability.
