We are a product-centric 3D printing platform and we’ve built a unique database of 3D printers and 3D scanners. This report provides high-level information about the 3D printing industry, with a focus on products. We always strive to be:

  • Factual: we collect detailed technical specs for each product, directly from manufacturers. When needed, we normalize the data to make it actionable (for a crowdsourced approach with users ratings, check the great 3D printing guide by 3D Hubs!).
  • Reliable: we do all the data collection and product analysis in-house, to ensure the data is accurate.
  • Comprehensive: we strive to update continuously our database to cover (almost!) all the products available worldwide.

This is the first edition of this report, and we realize there’s room for improvement. Please don’t hesitate to share your feedback (martin@aniwaa.com) and let us know what you’d like to see in the next report!
