KEY PARAMETERS TO BE REVIEWED WHILE BUYING A 3D PRINTER

Material & Resources

The printer supports the metal materials you have shortlisted to be used for manufacturing, such as titanium, aluminum, and stainless steel. You need to know their availability and pricing.

Product specifications and build volume

The printer you choose should be capable of producing the product according to the preferred size specifications, such as volume, layer thickness, and smooth surface finish.

Precision and Final Finish

The final product should match your expectations, especially in terms of quality and precision in the finish. You also need to consider the post-production processes required, such as heat treatment or machining.

Production Process

The production process has to be carefully studied and evaluated in terms of

  • Printing speed and output productivity

  • Compatibility of software considering various CAD software and file formats.

  • Ease of using the printer – user interface, experience, and usability

Printer specifications, cost, and after-sales service

Check specifications and safety features. In addition, you discuss, compare, and review product specifications with industry experts, which helps you make the correct decision.
The level of support and training offered by the manufacturer or supplier is an equally important aspect before purchasing the machine.

Investment vs. Total Cost of Operation (TCO) and Returns (ROI)

Choosing the right 3D printer is essential. It is important to understand the initial investment costs as you need to consider the Total Cost of Operation (TCO) and returns (ROI) before proceeding with the purchase. At times, you need to consider an initial high investment that can lower the cost of operations and deliver higher returns.
