Throughout the current market trend, the momentum of the development of metal 3d printer can be described as very fierce. Whether domestic or foreign, "SLM metal 3d printer will go back to the SLA light-curing 3d printer road" has become an unspoken "tacit understanding" of many users, but the fact is not so:

For industrial-grade metal 3d printers, in addition to the iteration of technology, the market price is also the focus of many users. So compared with the SLA light-curing 3d printer, will metal 3d printer price be more expensive? To answer this question, the first thing you need to do is to define the scope of the comparison and who you are comparing it to.

To compare the domestic and foreign market scope, generally speaking, the domestic metal 3d printer price is lower than the foreign metal 3d printer offer. The reason for this situation has two points, one is in the equipment related accessories and R & D efforts on the input, there is a certain difference between domestic and foreign, production costs, thus leading to the market offer on the difference. Secondly, the market environment is different, to put it bluntly, the domestic market is more "volume", this "volume" makes the metal 3d printer in the "oversupply" situation, that according to market According to the market value criterion, its domestic offer is naturally lower.

With different objectives to compare, many users think that the price of metal 3d printer must be higher than light-curing 3d printer, and the output of this conclusion is often too hasty. The molding process of the two devices are different, also need to consider whether the molding format is the same in the price comparison? Application scenarios overlap? Whether the molding speed and accuracy is similar and so on. So it is very unwise to compare prices based on one indicator alone.

As a new technology, the price of metal 3D printer may be higher, but as the market becomes increasingly saturated, its price will also tend to stabilize, the market share will become more and more popular.
