Why a map of additive manufacturing technologies?

After a lot of post-processing and fine-tuning, we are ready to present the VoxelMatters interactive map of commercially available 3D printing technologies. The different additive manufacturing technologies are divided into five major material families (metals, polymers, ceramics, composites and bioinks) and listed with the most relevant AM hardware manufacturers for each technology.

By clicking on each company and relative technology (in the outermost boxes, the ones with a white background), you will access the VoxelMatters Directory page for that company, which includes all their relevant contact information in case you need to reach out. If you represent a company listed in the Directory and would like to update your company page, you are always free to do so, just contact us at info@3dpbm.com with the updated information. Accessing the VoxelMatters Directory is free for everyone.

We hope this map can serve as a useful tool for both business development activities and as a reference to contextualize an AM technology among all others, helping to clarify a complex technological landscape.

How did we select which companies to feature?

Not all AM hardware manufacturers can be present on the map (in all, we list over 1000 AM hardware companies in our directory). So how did we choose the most relevant? These are the criteria we followed:

Premise: the AM systems must be available to purchase (even with limited availability).

  1. The historical relevance of a company (did they invent the technology? Have they been around for decades?)
  2. The disruptiveness of a company and its technology (did they invent a particularly innovative process?)
  3. The financial power of a company (are they well funded? Do they have a large Group behind them?)
  4. A company’s engagement with VoxelMatters (have they reached out to us? Have they worked with us?)
  5. A company’s commercial success (do they sell a lot of 3D printers?)

Do you think your 3D printing company should be on this map? Do you see anything that you don’t agree with in the criteria we followed for classification? While we cannot update the map regularly, the map will be updated periodically so if you think a technology should be present, please let us know at info@voxelmatters.com. Feel free to reach out to us anytime or comment below and let us know your thoughts!

In the meantime, we hope you will find this map useful. You are free to use it for presentations but please always credit VoxelMatters (www.voxelmatters.com) when you use the entire map or parts of it.

  1. Nice map, that gives a good overview on the different fields of additive manufacturing!

    However, it seems like you missed out on HAGE3D in the field of Fused Filament Fabrication, although you listed smaller companies in this section.

    Cheers!

    1. Hi, thank you for the comment. As you can see in the article, one of the criteria for selecting which companies to feature is how much that company has engaged and interacted with us at 3dpbm. Have you already created or claimed the HAGE3D company page on our 3D Printing Business Directory (www.3dprintingbusiness.directory)? It’s absolutely free. Also please suggest to your marketing team to reach out to us with information on Hage3D and to learn about collaboration opportunities. Looking forward to it!

      1. Thanks for your reply! I guess HAGE3D will get back at you with some Information next week 😉

        Cheers!

  2. I do not see Tethon3D listed in the ceramics section of the map. They are in the process of releasing their own 3D printer in addition to the offering of their resin selection and pilot work available.

    1. Hi Jimmy thank you for your comment. We were the first to cover the presentation of Tethon3D’s first machine and we’ve been tracking the company for a long time. As you correctly pointed out, they are in the process of releasing the machine and the premise for the companies listed in this map is that they have already sold systems which are installed in the market. We will certainly add them as soon as they let us know about their first systems installed.

    1. Hi, we have no plans to publish a fully updated version at this time as our team’s efforts are currently entirely focused on building our market database and market research activities (more info at http://www.voxelmatters.report). However, if there is a technology that you’d like to see added to the map, please feel free to let me know (at info@voxelmatters.com) and we will add it.
