Cloud Platform 3DPrinterOS Powers Global 3D Printing Network of a Technology Giant

3DPrinterOS has announced that one of the world’s largest technology companies has been using its cloud-based platform for nearly a decade to operate a global additive manufacturing network. The system now connects nearly 400 3D printers across around 100 locations — from research labs to prototyping workshops — making it one of the most extensive in-house 3D printing infrastructures worldwide.

“Over the years, this customer has used 3DPrinterOS to gain deep visibility into machine utilization across every location,” said Rene-Oscar Ariko, VP of Global Sales at 3DPrinterOS. “With this data, they can decide where to allocate budgets, how to optimize resources, and make smarter, data-driven decisions for their global innovation strategy. They needed a solution that could centralize hundreds of printers across multiple sites, streamline workflows, and maintain strict data security. 3DPrinterOS continues to be the only platform capable of meeting those demands at scale.”

In addition to process management, data security and scalability are key priorities. The platform is designed so that sensitive design data remains within secure cloud or on-premise environments.

The deployment at the unnamed technology company is based on a private cloud architecture that meets internal security requirements while providing a unified user experience for engineers, designers, and developers worldwide. Print jobs can be initiated directly from the workstation without any additional software installation. Supported systems include major brands such as Bambu Lab, Prusa, Ultimaker, and Formlabs.

Industry analysts view the long-term use by a global corporation as a sign of the shifting landscape in additive manufacturing. Rather than relying on decentralized, standalone applications, large companies are increasingly adopting centralized, cloud-based solutions to make additive manufacturing an integral part of their digital production infrastructure.

“This kind of scale pushes the entire 3D printing industry forward,” added Ariko. “When a company known for shaping the future of technology chooses 3DPrinterOS and grows its usage over nearly a decade, it shows that secure, standardized, and scalable cloud-based manufacturing has become the standard.”
