Amazon to Ban the Sale of 3D Printers by 2023

Published on April 1, 2022 by Madeleine P.

At 3Dnatives, we like April Fools’ Day! So this article was just a little joke for the occasion, Amazon remains supportive of 3D printing development!

You have almost certainly heard of Amazon. The American online retailer currently makes more than 12 million products available for purchase at lower prices. On this platform, you can find video games, clothing, household appliances, and of course 3D printing solutions – until now! That’s because Amazon is planning to make non-company 3D printers disappear from the platform very soon. Amazon has announced plans to ban all 3D printers by 2023. A slap in the face for major 3D printing companies offering their technologies on the popular online portal. Considering that Amazon receives more than 2 billion website visits per month, it’s easy to see why so many 3D printing companies sell their printers there.

Thankfully, Amazon did not keep its customers in the dark for long regarding their decision to ban 3D printers on the website. In fact, apparently the company is working internally to launch production and soon the sale of its own 3D printer line, including software, expected to be on the market starting in 2024. This is a large step from the conglomerate, as it dares to take in an industry that has proven to enjoy increasing popularity and acceptance.

Amazon: A New Top 3D Printer Manufacturer in the Future?

Though of course the plan to ban 3D printers from Amazon is shocking, the first questions that spring to mind are probably: What can we expect from Amazon’s 3D printer? What innovative and ingenious features will this technology come with? Fortunately, Andy Jassy, CEO of Amazon and successor to the famous Jeff Bezos, cleared some doubts in a recent press release, making it clear that the plan is to take Amazon to the next level. In order to realize Amazon’s vision, the company has decided to put itself forward in the 3D printing sector. Internally, the board is already convinced that Amazon will have made a name for itself in the additive manufacturing market in just a few years. Already it seems that the board of the U.S. company expects the company to become one of the big players among 3D printing manufacturers in the future.

In usual and unsurprising Amazon fashion, the first concrete plans are already in place from the R&D team to ensure that the company’s entry into the 3D printing industry is guaranteed. David Stafford, as head of the R&D department at Amazon Lab126, is playing a key role in the design and manufacture of the Amazon 3D printer. They plan to offer an affordable 3D printer based on FDM technology that is not only aimed at individuals, but also businesses; priced at under $100, this 3D printer will be found in Amazon Basics’ own product line and reinforces the idea of making 3D printing accessible to everyone.

Features and characteristics of the 3D printer

To ensure that the entry into the field of 3D printing with the future FDM printer is also a complete success for the US company, the printer will have important and practical features: for example, the device, which is to be supplied with a closed power supply unit, is to have an build volume of 1200 x 600 x 450 mm and will be able to offer its users many interesting . The incredible thing is that it does not plan to just stick to using FDM as a printing technology, but they will be launching an all-in-one FDM/SLA combined machine! As unrealistic as this may sound, Amazon has said that they are very confident in their idea. If it is done successfully, it will also give Amazon even more of an edge as often those looking for cheap printers must choose between SLA and FDM for their needs. With this machine, they could get everything at an incredibly affordable price, even if they are very tight-lipped about the specific details of how the printer will work. What is also known is that with a total weight of 19.4 kg, the printing speed is expected to be 320 mm per second, though whether that is just for FDM or for both is still unknown.

It is still unclear which software the Amazon printer will be compatible with. However, Stafford gave some small insights, setting his team and himself up for great expectations from the public. They want to use this type of software that will combine user-friendliness, efficiency and cost savings in one cheap package. Great words, which will hopefully be followed by great deeds. However, what exactly this project means for the banning of the current 3D printers and the companies behind them, is still not clear. But we will be watching the news closely and inform you of any new developments. If you want to learn more about the new Amazon technology, you can find more information from the US company HERE.

David Stafford gives great reason to be excited about the advancement of 3D printing

90,000 The printer market will grow to over $6.5 billion by 2023.

May 07, 2021 - Analyst firm IDC has released a report for the first quarter of 2021, which includes sales data for "hard copy devices", i. e. printers, MFPs and copiers, in Western Europe. IDC estimates that 5.15 million devices in these categories were shipped during the quarter. This is 18.9% more than in the first quarter of last year. Report and Forecast Wizards note that the growth in annual terms is observed for the third quarter in a row. Moreover, sales were the highest in the last six years (if we compare the figures of the first quarters). Growth was driven by inkjet devices, while laser device sales continued to decline in most countries in the region. More specifically, sales of inkjet devices increased by 29.6%, and laser decreased by 2.1% . If we move to monetary terms, the market grew by only 0.9% and reached 2.07 billion euros. https://www.ixbt.com/news/2021/05/07/zapadnoevropejskij-rynok-printerov-...

August 28, 2020 - Global shipments of paper printing peripherals in Q2 2020 decreased by 10.2% year-on-year to 20 million units. This is reported by the analytical company IDC in its study Worldwide Quarterly Hardcopy Peripherals Tracker. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic continues to create challenges for most suppliers with manufacturing sites in China, Indonesia, the Philippines and neighboring countries. Statistics presented include shipments of printers, copiers and multifunctional devices (MFPs). The analytics are given in relation to the technique for printing in A2-A4 format. Despite the reduction of the market as a whole around the world, a number of regions in the II quarter of 2020 showed an increase in the supply of printing devices. The leader in the dynamics of deliveries was China, where in the II quarter it was sold 19.1% more devices compared to the results of the same period last year. Demand has been boosted by remote work and distance learning over this period, analysts said. https://www.cnews.ru/news/top/2020-08-28_mirovoj_rynok_printerov

February 22, 2020 - Research conducted by International Data Corporation (IDC) shows that the global device market printing in the last quarter of last year showed mixed results. Delivery of traditional printers of various types (laser, inkjet), multifunctional devices, and copiers is taken into account. The data covers vehicles in A2-A4 formats. It is reported that , approximately 25.3 million print devices were sold globally between October and December inclusive. This is 5.4% less than the result for the last quarter of 2018, when the market volume was 26.8 million pieces of . At the same time, a 0.9% growth was recorded in monetary terms: the total revenue of printing equipment suppliers reached approximately $11.9 billion. The largest player in the market is HP with 9.8 million devices sold and a share of 38.6%. In second place is the Canon Group, which delivered 5.4 million devices and occupied 21.4% of the industry. Closes the top three Epson with 4.8 million units sold and 19.0% of the industry. https://3dnews.ru/1004288

October 18, 2019 - 3D printer sales growth in 2019 is double-digit percent. Shipments of 3D printers in the industrial, design and professional price segments will grow in 2019 by 14%, 13% and 15%, respectively , against the background of stagnation in the segment of printers for home use. Chris Connery, vice president of global research at CONTEXT says: But key markets will grow differently. This makes Q4 the key to industry success in 2019.year." https://www.it-world.ru/it-news/analytics/149281.html

June 11, 2019 - Analytical company Research and Markets has released a report on the achievements and prospects of the printing device market from 2013 to 2023 of the year. According to experts, the market size should grow to 6.6 billion dollars, and high-performance printers for business will serve as the main growth factor. The business printer market includes several categories: publishing, promotional products, food packaging and labels, document management, as well as the production of signs, posters and decorative panels. As of 2017, publishing remained the largest direction, the profitability of which was 35% of the market as a whole. However, experts are confident that the segment of devices for the production of packaging and labels will definitely show rapid growth. The reason for this is the continued growth of the e-commerce market. An increasing percentage of people are connecting to the global network, which involves more and more new customers and gives rise to an avalanche-like growth in the number of online stores and other sales platforms. Such growth seriously increases the demand for packaging products and, as a result, equipment for their production. Another important trend tied to the growth of the e-commerce market is the increased interest in the offer of "print on demand" (print on demand), the essence of which is the production of specific products in small runs for individual orders. This refers to pamphlets and manuals, advertising booklets and highly specialized books that are paid for by small owners, and not by large agencies or publishers. This, in turn, generates demand not for large production chains, usually using offset printing technology, but for low-volume digital printing devices. 9RBC Chinese, Japanese and domestic brands have increased in the Russian market. New players from South Korea are also appearing

The shares of the main players in the market of printing devices in Russia have changed dramatically since the beginning of the year, follows from the data provided by RBC by the analytical company ITResearch. By the end of the third quarter, the largest printers sold were Chinese Pantum (53%), American HP (21%), Japanese Epson, Canon and Brother (4-5% each). At the same time, at the end of last year, HP was the market leader with a 36% share, Pantum had 16%, Canon and another Japanese vendor Kyocera had 10% each, Brother had 9%.

RBC's source in the distribution market said that, according to his data, the leading brands in the Russian market until February 2022 were HP, Pantum and the American Xerox with shares of 27, 21 and 13%, respectively. The top ten also included Kyocera, Brother, Epson, Canon, Ricoh, Lexmark. In February, the share of HP increased to 38%, but then the position of all foreign vendors worsened: for example, the share of HP decreased to 12% by September, Xerox - to 4%. The only exception was Pantum, whose share rose to 67%.

According to ITResearch, in the first three months of this year, the market sank in terms of the number of devices sold by almost a quarter, but its volume in money increased slightly due to rising prices. In the second quarter, the decline was 45% due to growing food shortages, problems with logistics and exchange rate instability. In total, 613,000 printers and desktop multifunctional devices (MFPs) were sold in Russia in the first half of the year, which is 36% less than a year earlier. In the third quarter, in absolute terms, the market began to grow (almost 300 thousand units), although it showed a double-digit drop year-on-year. ITResearch experts attribute this to the fact that the contribution of deliveries under the parallel import scheme began to be felt with the simultaneous growth of the role of Pantum and import substitution. In 2021, according to ITResearch, 2.17 million printers were sold in Russia, which is 13.1% less than a year earlier. The volume of this year remained almost at the level of the previous one — $567 million. The dynamics was associated with a reduction in pandemic demand, when, due to the transition to a hybrid mode of work from home and office, consumers retrofitted their workplaces.

In March, HP suspended deliveries of products to Russia due to the military conflict in Ukraine. The suspension of work in Russia was also announced by the American Xerox and the division of Canon in Europe, Africa and the Middle East. In August, Lexmark sold its Russian division to F-Plus Equipment and Development (a subsidiary of one of the largest Russian distributors, Marvel Distribution). The terms of the deal were not disclosed, only it was reported that F+ imaging brand equipment will continue to be manufactured under contract at the same factories as Lexmark equipment.

In mid-March, the Japanese Ricoh Group and Epson also announced the suspension of shipments of devices to Russia due to the situation in Ukraine. But, as three sources in the real estate market and one in the distribution market told RBC, Ricoh recently rented more than 100 permanent places in a coworking space on Leningradsky Prospekt. The company itself declined to comment. According to the CEO of the consulting company Remain, Dmitry Klapsha, this year the demand for coworking and service offices has increased from international companies that do not want to completely close their Russian representative offices and leave the market: companies simply move to optimize rental costs and gain greater flexibility.

Leading ITResearch expert Vladimir Mironos named Taiwanese Avision, which also has production facilities in China and until recently was known in Russia only for its scanners, and Huawei, which made its debut in the segment of laser multifunctional devices, among new suppliers. A source in the distribution market also mentioned the Chinese Deli Group as a new player in the printer market. In addition, printers from the South Korean brand Sindoh began to be delivered to Russia, two sources told RBC in the distribution market. The equipment of this manufacturer is offered on its website, in particular, by the Russian vendor and distributor of printing equipment Katyusha, the RBC correspondent was convinced. RBC sent a request to Sindoh headquarters.

All listed new brands are not included in the global top. According to the analytical platform Statista, as of March 2021, the largest players in the global printer market were HP (with a 24.5% share), Canon (17.7%), Brother (10.7%), Epson (9.9% ), Kyocera (7.8%), NEC (5.6%) and Ricoh (3.6%).

According to Mironos, Russian manufacturers of F+ imaging and Katyusha are also increasing deliveries.

F+ imaging manufacturing facilities are located in Russia and Asia. The company can produce more than 50,000 printers a year and intends to sell them in the CIS countries. F+ imaging expects to take up to 20% of the print market in Russia in the coming years. According to Dmitry Kuptsov, CEO of F+ imaging, the shortage of chips is decreasing, which, together with the decline in business activity around the world, should significantly reduce the shortage of printing equipment in the next six months. He expects that in 2023 the situation in the Russian print market will improve: players optimize supply chains, excess profits will decrease, and the most serious participants will remain. In addition, Russian manufacturers will increase their output.

Katyusha has its own production of printers and multifunction devices in Zelenograd. Now the company is expanding its network of sales offices in Russia, it is already present on the market of the CIS countries, in particular, in Kazakhstan, Belarus and other countries, said Maxim Vinogradov, managing partner of the company.

According to Anna Budakova, Deputy Commercial Director of Arti Group (developer of monitoring and print management software), there were no restrictions on the use of foreign printing equipment in Russia, and the equipment of manufacturers who left Russia was included in the list for parallel imports. But for government customers, there is a requirement that built-in applications for printing equipment for working with monitoring and print management systems should be included in the register of domestic software, Budakova noted. She also pointed out that private customers have recently become interested in Russian products, who are afraid of being left without the support of foreign manufacturers and developers. Now, according to Budakova, there are no acute problems with the support of foreign office printing equipment, but in the future the issue of compatibility of printer and MFP drivers with Russian server operating systems will have to be resolved. This problem will be especially relevant for equipment older than three years. “When a company switches from a Microsoft Windows server operating system to a Linux operating system, there may be difficulties with drivers when connecting printing equipment, since the drivers currently used were written for Windows operating systems, Western versions of Linux, Mac OS.
