Independent metal AM

Help build real-world metal AM quote transparency

Machine prices are often quote-only. This page defines a future community dataset and lets you prepare a de-identified quote record without putting a company name into the file.

Privacy: this form runs in your browser and does not submit data to Metal3DPrinting.ai. The downloaded record contains the fields you enter and no identity field. If you later send it by email, your email address will of course be visible to the recipient.

Planned publishing rule

When community data is eventually published, keep machine-only price separate from installed package price, group comparable configurations, show currency and date, and never present federal contract values as retail machine prices.
