Epica International

What Epica International does

Epica International, Inc. is a privately held U.S.-headquartered holding company that designs, develops, manufactures, and distributes advanced mobile medical imaging platforms and precision robotic systems through five wholly owned subsidiaries: Epica Human Health, Epica Animal Health, Roboticom, Imaginalis, and Peregrine Radiology. Founded in 2013 with initial financing from Facilitated Growth and headquartered in Landrum, South Carolina, with operations anchored at a 27,000-square-foot assembly and warehousing facility in Duncan, SC and manufacturing/R&D in Florence and Pisa, Italy, the company employs 51-100 people across the U.S. and Europe.

The company's product portfolio spans three verticals. In human medical imaging, the SeeFactor CT3 is an FDA 510(k)-cleared and CE-marked mobile, multi-modality point-of-care platform combining HDVI CT, fluoroscopy, and digital radiography, with a 62.5cm gantry bore and 30cm field of view. In animal health, the Vimago GT30, GT30 Pico, and Pegaso Evolution platforms serve veterinary, equine, and pre-clinical/academic research markets. In industrial robotics, the Ortis Essential/Professional/Enterprise line addresses orthotics and prosthetics milling, while SandRob and ScultoRob provide surface finishing, sanding, polishing, and 7-axis milling for aerospace, automotive, and general manufacturing. The underlying HDVI technology delivers 0.2mm spatial resolution in isotropic, non-interpolated 3D imaging.

Epica generates revenue primarily through one-time hardware sales of medical imaging platforms and robotic systems, supplemented by recurring service and support contracts delivered via its 2025 partnership with Catalyst MedTech. Distribution combines direct enterprise field sales — led by a Chief Commercial Officer and divisional presidents — with channel partnerships, notably the September 2025 Esaote North America alliance. Customer base is diversified across approximately 400 veterinary/pre-clinical imaging deployments, 170+ industrial robotic customers (including Adidas, Dallara, Weiss Automotive, Delastek, and the US VA Health Care System), and emerging human-health adopters such as Spartanburg Regional Healthcare System. The company has raised more than $50 million cumulatively across debt and equity rounds, with notable growth-capital facilities from SWK Holdings ($14M, 2018) and Avenue Capital Group ($18M, 2024), and reported FY2017 third-party-certified revenue of $24.1M.

Expansion highlights6 records

Broad incumbents

• Carestream Health: Medical imaging and IT solutions company with X-ray, fluoroscopy and DR portfolio, including mobile imaging. Comparable as it sells multi-modality imaging systems into the same hospital and outpatient channels.
• Philips Healthcare: Broad incumbent in diagnostic imaging, interventional and patient monitoring. Comparable as it sells directly into the same ICU/OR hospital purchasing channels that Epica targets with its mobile CT.
• GE HealthCare: Global medical imaging incumbent with broad CT, MR and ultrasound portfolio including mobile CT solutions. Directly comparable as the dominant scale player Epica competes against in hospital imaging procurement.
• Siemens Healthineers: Major CT, MR and interventional imaging incumbent with global hospital salesforce and service network. Comparable because it competes head-to-head with Epica's SeeFactor CT3 for hospital capital budgets.
• Canon Medical Systems: Imaging equipment manufacturer with a strong CT portfolio, including mobile and point-of-care CT. Comparable as a peer in multi-modality diagnostic imaging capital sales to hospitals.
• Stryker (Mako Surgical): Medical device leader with strong orthopedic and surgical robotics franchises. Comparable as it overlaps with Epica's ORTIS O&P robotic milling products and the broader surgical robotics roadmap.

Direct peers

• Esaote: Italian-based diagnostic imaging company specializing in MR, ultrasound and—since the 2025 Epica partnership—CT. Direct comparable as both a peer in the imaging modality category and a distribution partner for Epica's CT in North America.
• Universal Robots: Global leader in collaborative industrial robotic arms, including surface finishing, sanding and milling applications. Comparable as a direct competitor in industrial robotic automation where Roboticom's SandRob and ScultoRob operate.

Emerging players

• Planmed: Specialty imaging OEM focused on digital mammography, CT, and orthopedic imaging. Comparable as a smaller, focused imaging manufacturer pursuing point-of-care and specialty clinical use cases similar to Epica's strategy.
• Brainlab: Specialty surgical imaging, navigation and robotics vendor focused on image-guided surgery and intraoperative imaging. Comparable as a peer pursuing image-guided point-of-care and intraoperative imaging workflows.
