3D printer trade in

One of the great benefits of additive manufacturing is its flexibility – and at Tri-Tech 3D, we pride ourselves on being just as user-friendly when it comes to our hardware purchase options. Of course, the team is always here to help you choose from our range of new 3D printers by Stratasys, UltiMaker and more. 

 But there’s more than one way to ensure your business has access to the very latest AM technology. Tri-Tech 3D also offers the option of 3D printer trade in (alongside refurbished 3D printers and 3D printer leasing), and the process couldn’t be easier.  

1. Assess your needs

For most businesses that already use AM, there will come a ‘tipping point’ when it’s obvious that your existing 3D printer is no longer hitting the mark. Perhaps your existing hardware can’t deliver the precision required for a functional prototype or lacks the production capacity to meet growing market demand. At this point, to avoid scaling back your business, the option of trading in your old 3D printer with Tri-Tech 3D – and receiving a discount on your new unit – makes perfect sense.  

2. Get in touch with the team

The best way to start the ball rolling is to simply fill out our 3D printer trade in online form. At this early stage, we’ll just ask you for a few basic details, like your contact information, the old system you’re hoping to trade in and the 3D printing technology you’re interested in upgrading to. Before you know it, our team will be in touch. 

3. Trust in our fair valuation

The trouble with selling a 3D printer using avenues like eBay is that you won’t necessarily get a fair price – and could be left without a 3D printer while the sale goes through. At Tri-Tech 3D, it’s seamless. As the UK’s most respected dealer in 3D printers, we know the latest market values and will always offer a fair quote on your existing unit, set against the cost of the new one.  

 Just as important, because we have all the best 3D printers at our fingertips ready to ship, we can arrange the smoothest possible changeover, supplying your upgraded hardware while taking away your existing unit. 

4. Relax and enjoy your new 3D printer

Whether you’re purchasing your first unit or using Tri-Tech 3D’s printer trade in service, you’ll get the exact same guarantee and second-to-none aftersales care for your new hardware. So relax – you’re in the sector’s safest hands.
