Typical price i
420,– to 1000,–

Heats and extrudes plastic filament through a nozzle, building objects layer by layer.

FDM is widely used for its affordability and versatility, making it suitable for beginners, hobbyists, and basic prototypes.

Typical price i
85,– to 1600,–

Uses a similar approach to FDM by melting and depositing thermoplastic filament along a set path.

FFF printers offer reliable performance for everyday use, especially for educational projects and rapid prototyping.

Typical price i
440,– to 640,–

Cures liquid resin with a laser to produce highly detailed and smooth-surfaced prints.

SLA is ideal for applications requiring fine detail, such as jewelry, dental models, or miniatures, but typically involves higher costs and more post-processing.

Typical price i
210,– to 680,–

Solidifies liquid resin using a digital light projector, enabling very fast and precise printing.

DLP is well-suited for small, intricate designs where speed and surface finish are priorities, such as dental aligners or custom figurines.

Typical price i
370,– to 1000,–

PLA is a biodegradable, plant-based plastic known for easy printing and a smooth surface finish.

It is ideal for beginners and general-purpose models, offering low warping but less heat and impact resistance than other materials.

Typical price i
370,– to 940,–

PETG combines strength and flexibility, producing tough, slightly glossy prints with good chemical resistance.

It is suitable for functional parts and outdoor items, offering more durability than PLA and easier printing than ABS.

Typical price i
420,– to 1300,–

ABS is a strong, impact-resistant plastic known for its durability and ability to withstand higher temperatures.

Commonly used for mechanical parts and enclosures, it requires a heated bed and controlled environment to minimize warping.

Typical price i
400,– to 940,–

TPU is a flexible, rubber-like filament that allows prints to bend, stretch, and compress without breaking.

Used for items like phone cases and gaskets, it is more challenging to print but offers unique flexibility compared to rigid plastics.

Typical price i
320,– to 710,–

Resin is a liquid photopolymer cured by light, delivering high detail and a smooth finish for intricate models.

Best for miniatures, jewelry, and prototypes, resin offers superior detail but requires post-processing and safe handling.

Typical price i
210,– to 460,–

Enables extremely fine layer heights for highly detailed and smooth prints.

Best for creating miniatures, prototypes, or models where intricate details are critical, though print times will be much longer.

Typical price i
370,– to 1200,–

Offers a balance of fine detail and reasonable printing time, producing smooth surfaces.

Ideal for detailed functional parts or decorative items where visible layers should be minimal but speed is still a consideration.

Typical price i
370,– to 940,–

Provides standard resolution that suits most general-purpose printing needs.

Good choice for prototypes, household items, or learning projects where a balance of speed and surface quality is preferred.

Typical price i
460,– to 1000,–

Prints objects quickly with thicker layers, resulting in more visible layer lines.

Recommended for draft models, large objects, or parts where speed is prioritized over surface smoothness.

Typical price i
340,– to 940,–

Allows direct connection between the printer and a computer or USB drive for file transfers.

Ideal for single-user setups or environments where security and reliable transfers are important, such as classrooms or workshops.

Typical price i
400,– to 940,–

Enables wireless file transfer and remote control over Wi-Fi from a computer, tablet, or smartphone.

Convenient for multi-user environments or when the printer is placed away from the main workstation, such as in a home office.

Typical price i
440,– to 940,–

Connects the printer to a network via an Ethernet cable, supporting stable and fast data transfer.

Useful for office or lab settings where multiple users need reliable access without interruptions from wireless interference.

Typical price i
300,– to 610,–

Lets you load print jobs directly from an SD card, bypassing the need for a constant computer connection.

Great for standalone operation, especially in workshops or makerspaces where the printer may not always be near a computer.

Recognized for affordable, widely supported printers with a large user community.

Great for hobbyists and tinkerers who want easy access to upgrades, mods, and troubleshooting help.

Known for innovative features, high-speed printing, and user-friendly automation.

Ideal for users seeking advanced performance with minimal setup and maintenance.

Offers a broad range of reliable printers, from budget FDM to high-quality resin models.

Popular for easy setup and consistent print quality, suitable for beginners and classrooms.

Specializes in enclosed, ready-to-use printers with strong safety features.

Recommended for educational settings and households where ease of use and safety matter.

Focuses on 3D printing pens for creative drawing and design.

Best for hands-on art projects, STEM learning, and introducing kids to 3D printing.
