Which industries use 3DPrinterOS?

Answered by the 3DPrinterOS team

3DPrinterOS is used by universities, K-12 schools, school districts, libraries and makerspaces, and by companies in automotive, aerospace, manufacturing, consumer goods, robotics, medical devices, military and government, plus print farms and OEMs. More than 500 companies and universities run their 3D printers on it.

What each group typically needs:

  • Education: shared printers for many students, with SSO, job approval, quotas and student billing.
  • Libraries and makerspaces: public print services, paid or free, with staff approval.
  • Enterprise and manufacturing: mixed fleets across sites, role-based access, audit logs and private cloud or on-premise deployment.
  • Public sector: a TX-RAMP certified U.S. deployment and air-gapped options.
  • Print farms: shared queues across printer groups, scheduling and cost per job.

Named users on the homepage include Yale, Duke and MIT in education and Koenigsegg, BMW and Siemens in industry. Whatever the sector, the platform works with 200+ printer models, so existing printers can usually stay.
