Desktop/Personal 3D Printer Manufactures

(NOT DONE YET) These companies sell 3D printer and kits intended for personal, DIY use with some potential with commercial application

BitsFromBytes.com
3DTouch 3D Printer

Bits from Bytes is part of 3D Systems, and sells a range of low-cost 3D printers and 3D printer kits including the 3D Touch and RapMan 3.2.

•Boots Industries

3DTouch 3D Printer

Boots Industries produce a low-cost thermoplastic extrusion 3D printer called the Rostock, and also make nice 1.75mm PLA filament.


•Cubifyis part of 3D Systems, and sells several thermoplastic extrusion, consumer-grade 3D printers. These range from the single-material Cube, to the larger, multimaterial Cube X Duo and Cube X Trio.

•CB-Printer.com CB-Printer is the first domestic 3D printer to be produced in Poland. Its '3D Printer CB-printer' is available either fully assembled or as a kit.

•Delta Micro Factory Corporation The Delta Micro Factory Corporation is a Chinese 3D printer manufacturer. Under their PP3DP brand, the company sells the UP! range of low-cost, desktop 3D printers which use thermoplastic extrusion to build plastic objects. The same printers are also imported into the United States and resold by a company calledAfinia.

•FormLabs Formlabs produces a low-cost desktop stereolithographic printer called the Form 1.

•Makerbot Industries Makerbot produces a range of low-cost, desktop 3D printers that use thermoplastic extrusion to create plastic objects. The company claims around a 20 per cent share of all 3D printers sold, and was recently purchased by Stratasys

•MakeGEAR.com MakerGear develop products and services for the maker community, and sells its own M Series thermoplastic extrusion 3D printers in both kit and fully-assembled formats, as well as some RepRap open source models.

•Portabee The Portabee is a small, low-cost and foldable thermoplastic extrusion 3D printer available either fully assembled or as a kit.

•PrintrBot PrinterBot produces very low cost 3D printers in both kit-form and fully assembled. The company's printers are based on thermoplastic extrusion, and have iconic laser-cut-plywood body panels.

•RepRapPro RepRapPro sell a wide range of kits for building open source RepRap 3D printers based on thermoplastic extrusion technology.

•ReprapUniverse.com ReprapUniverse.com sells kits for MendleMax and Prussa open source RepRap 3D printers.

•Solidoodle Solidoodle is a fully-assembled, low-cost 3D printer available in 'base', 'pro' and 'expert' versions.

•Ultimaker The Ultimaker is a lightweight, robust and very well respected thermoplastic extrusion 3D printer that in group tests frequently beats all rivals on the basis of its speed and quality of output

3D Printer High Resolution DIY This project is a cool initiative to develop a low-cost kit for a stereolithographic (SLA) 3D printer.
