Our registered offices are located at One Fetter Lane, London, EC4A 1BR. Our trading offices and central warehouse are based just outside of Manchester, close to the motorway network. Our premises are situated on a secure site and as such, we can’t cater for product inspections or order collections. We also ship orders directly from a number of additional distribution centres in the United Kingdom.
Our invoices are produced the day after the goods are despatched so we’re unable to include a copy with your delivery. Our policy is to send all invoices electronically via email rather than printing and posting hard copies. If you haven’t received a copy of your invoice, please for assistance.
We accept payment via the following credit and debit cards:
Visa, Visa Delta, MasterCard, Maestro, Amex, Visa Electron
Please note that we can only currently accept payment using cards that are registered to an address in the UK or Ireland.
If paying by card is not an option, you can pay us via bank transfer (contact us for details) and we also offer 30 day credit accounts. You can online. We process most applications within 2 business days.

HP Renew products are products that HP have subjected to a stringent rebuilding and restoration process returning them to 'as new' condition. Renew products are backed by the same HP warranty covering their new counterparts.
Want to know more? See our HP Renew page.
We try to make it really easy to find products on our website. You can browse our product ranges using the drop down menus at the top of the page. Menus on the left hand side of product list pages let you drill down to a smaller range of products.
If you know what you’re looking for, type the product name or description into the search box at the top of the page and click the search button. You’ll hopefully get a list of matching and similar products. If not, chances are we don’t have stock of the product you’re seeking. It could be that the product is brand new and has not yet come into stock. Alternatively, the product may be in constraint, obsolete or from a range or manufacturer that we just don’t stock.
If you’re looking for a product that you believe we should stock, please use our request a quote form to see if we can help.
We display a status on stock on the product page. Most orders are fulfilled exclusively from our own warehouse but in some cases, in the interest of speed, we may ship directly from our network of suppliers.
Our website receives frequent stock availability updates to ensure the quantities displayed are accurate, but there is always a slim possibility of discrepancies between the quantities advertised and the true quantities available. When this happens, you may end up ordering a product shown as in stock but later receive an email advising that it is in fact out of stock. In such cases, the unavailable product(s) will go onto back order and be despatched as soon as the goods are back in stock. We’ll keep you updated throughout and you’ll always have the option of amending or cancelling your order as well.
We may still display out of stock products on our web site but you will not be able to order such products online. This is for a variety of reasons including our inability to guarantee future availability or delivery timescales for such products. If you’d like to be notified when a product comes back into stock or if you’d like us to advise on suitable alternatives please contact us to see if we can help.
Our team of product specialists are on hand to help you find the products or solutions you need. You can get in touch with us in a number of ways:
Our blog contains a wealth of posts, videos and other information on choosing and using our products which you may also find helpful.
All products sold at Evaris are covered by a warranty. New products are covered by a manufacturer warranty whereas the cover provided for other stock conditions may be provided by us or a third party. To find warranty information for a product, click the specifications tab on the product detail page and look for the warranty information displayed on the page.
We can offer upgraded warranty cover for some products. For example, a server may come with a 3 year next business day warranty as standard which can be upgraded to provide a 4 hour response time. When such products are available, we’ll usually display them as optional extras on the main product page. You can also find warranties via the site search field or via the Software drop down menu at the top of the page (click on Service & Support).
Because we offer thousands of products online, we work with a third party specialist who provides us the product descriptions, specifications and images for our product range. Doing so helps ensure we show the most accurate and up to date product information as possible at all times. Inevitably, as with all systems, there is always a small number of products where the data is either missing or incorrect. We check our product data regularly to spot such problems but would appreciate your feedback if you find a product that needs updating.
You can also cross reference our displayed product information with that supplied on the manufacturer’s UK official website.
At Evaris we carry out daily price checks to maintain an up to date view on our pricing in relation to our online competitors. As well as monitoring, our website reacts to fluctuating prices automatically to ensure our products are always priced as keenly as possible across our entire catalogue.
Since it’s impossible to keep tabs on everyone, we offer a price match challenge. If you find a better price elsewhere, we'll do our very best to match it.
As well as new products, we also sell open box, refurbished & HP Renew products. All of our products are backed by a warranty.
Open box products are brand new, unused items for which the outer packaging has either been opened or damaged. Open box products are covered by the full manufacturer warranty.
Products we classify as refurbished have been checked and tested to ensure they are fit for sale and come from a variety of sources.
Refurbished products might include:
HP Renew products have been remanufactured to the same standard as new HP products and are backed by the original HP warranty. In other words, there is no difference between the warranty offered for a new HP product and the equivalent HP Renew product.
The term pixel is short for ‘picture element’. A pixel is the smallest single component of a digital image on the screen of a display device. The picture on a monitor, LCD, plasma or laptop screen is made up of a grid of thousands of pixels that together make up the complete image. Each pixel can only be set to one specific colour at any given time.
Because of their production methods and the sheer number of pixels involved, there is always a chance that a display screen will contain or encounter a defective pixel at some point during its use. A defective pixel is one which is not performing as expected. This includes dead pixels which don’t show any light and stuck pixels which always shows one colour when the device is active. That said, because each pixel is so small, such faults are usually barely noticeable.
When it comes to defective pixels, return policies from manufacturers differ based on the number of bad pixels and their location on the screen. A product will only be deemed faulty by its manufacturer if the number and location of the defective pixels contravenes their stated guidelines. This is what’s known as their pixel tolerance level.
If you’re considering purchasing a product which includes a display please be aware of the possibility of pixel failure. We can only accept returns for such products if the number and location of the defective pixels exceeds the manufacturer’s stated tolerance level.
OEM stands for Original Equipment Manufacturer. An original equipment manufacturer, or OEM, manufactures products or components that are purchased by a company and retailed under that purchasing company's brand name. OEM refers to the company that originally manufactured the product.
The OEM products Evaris sells are typically hardware components and peripherals such as hard drives, cables or mice. Such products are aimed at system builders looking to build or upgrade existing servers or other computer systems.
OEM products are usually cheaper than their branded equivalents because you usually won’t get all the box contents you’d get with the premium product (such as user manuals or drivers). The product may also be supplied in a plain box rather than a branded, retail pack.
In some cases we may refer to OEM products as ‘generic’ products.
We stock a diverse range of products and feedback we’ve received suggests that there is sometimes an expectation that the manufacturer should include cables or adapters that are not supplied as standard. We’ve picked out a few common examples to illustrate this.
Some of the products we source are of European specification which means they are intended for sale across the EU. Such products don’t always ship with a power cable because it is impractical to include a cable catering for every different European country.
Printer manufacturers don’t typically include a cable to connect the printer to a computer.
Monitors usually ship with both power and VGA cables but other cables such as HDMI cables aren’t normally included.
You can sometimes find out what’s included in the box by clicking the specification tab on the product page. If the information isn’t available there, you might find it on the manufacturer’s web site instead. Alternatively you can contact us to see if we can help.
Categorically no! All our stock is ethically sourced within the EU and backed by warranty. Hewlett Packard products sold as new are retail sealed units covered by the full manufacturer warranty. For added peace of mind, we can supply serial numbers up front which you can validate online to confirm warranty cover ahead of purchase.
At Evaris, we want you to be completely satisfied every time you shop with us. Our aim is to offer you good value and excellent service at all times, but we appreciate that there may be occasions when you need to return items to us. You should be aware that our sets out the full terms relating to returns but here’s a summary the key points:
Requesting a return
You can request a return online by submitting our returns form. Please include the following information in your email:
Once we’ve processed and approved your request, we’ll contact you to issue a Returns Materials Authorisation (RMA) number, usually within 2-3 business days of receipt of your request.
Once you’ve been issued with an RMA number, you can arrange for the goods to be returned to us. RMA numbers will only remain active for 14 days from the date of issue so you must ensure your goods are sent back before the expiry date. We can’t accept responsibility for goods damaged in transit so please ensure that:
What happens next?
Goods are inspected by us on arrival and, if appropriate, tested. In most cases, a replacement item will be shipped. We reserve the right to decide whether to issue replacement goods or a credit/refund. Evaris will only meet shipping costs for returns in the case of an error on our part or in cases where the goods are faulty, sold incorrectly or are not suitable for the purpose for which they are intended. We may charge a restocking fee if the goods returned:
If there is a problem with your received order let us know by emailing us at returns@evaris.com.
We’ve broken down the most common types of product problems our customers have experienced in the list below.
Damaged products
If you notice that your goods are damaged when you take receipt of your order, please add the word ‘DAMAGED’ when providing a signature to the courier driver. Doing so both documents the fact that the goods were delivered in substandard condition and enables us to investigate matters further with our courier. We’ll normally replace damaged goods once we’ve received them back in our warehouse. If we can’t replace the goods, we’ll issue a refund instead.
Missing parts
If you need to check whether there are parts missing from a product you’ve received you can try checking the description on our product page or the manufacturer's website to see what should be included.
If you need to contact us about missing parts please request a return within 7 days of receipt of the goods. As well as listing the product’s name and missing items, please also check to see if there’s a serial number printed on the product or its packaging and let us have this number too. This information will help us investigate the matter more efficiently.
Wrong items received
If you’ve received the wrong items, it could be due to a picking error in the warehouse or a delivery mix up with our courier. It would help us if you can provide the following information when contacting us:
We’ll normally arrange for the incorrect items to be collected and the right products to be despatched.
Faulty products
If your goods are faulty on arrival, you’re entitled to a replacement, repair or a refund. We’ll normally replace the goods or refund you as repairs are not always practical, typically cost more and take longer to action.
If your goods develop a fault during usage, we’ll refer you to the manufacturer for a warranty repair or replacement in most cases. The vast majority of the products we sell are covered by a manufacturer warranty and dealing with them directly is the fastest, most convenient way to get the fault addressed. There are several reasons for this including the following:
If you’ve returned a product to us and requested a replacement item as your desired remedy, we’ll automatically generate a new invoice when we ship your replacement items. As such, we raise a credit note against the original invoice to ensure you’re only charged once for your order.
If we’re unable to provide a replacement, we’ll issue a credit instead and notify you accordingly. If you paid via credit or debit card, the funds will be issued back to the card used. If you paid on account, we’ll credit the funds back to your account.
In accordance with our there are a number of instances when we’ll notify you about a surcharge relating to your return request. These include the following:
We’ll always notify you in advance of a charge explaining the reasons for the fee. The amount charged is based on a number of factors including the amount of labour/administration involved and the condition of the product and its packaging.
While there is no set answer to this question, we can provide some indicative guidelines.
In some cases, we may not be able to offer you the remedy you requested when making a returns request.
Refunds or credits will only be offered in the following circumstances:
If your order was lost or damaged in transit, you must let us know with 2 business days. In all other cases, you must contact us within 30 days detailing the problem. Note that if the products are not returned in the same condition they arrived in, we may only issue a partial refund or credit. For more details please see our
Replacement products are only possible if:
Please note that return requests will not be accepted from customers whose accounts have been suspended for any reason.
Yes, in fact we find this is often the most convenient option for our customers, especially those with their own courier account. When returning any goods please ensure:
If you’d prefer, we can provide instructions on arranging a collection using our own couriers. You can let us know this when you submit your returns request online (via the comments section) or contact our returns team if you’ve already submitted your request.
We’ll always deal with your return as quickly as possible and unless we’re sending your product back to the manufacturer for repair or replacement, we aim to complete processing of your return within 2 weeks. Here are some indicative timescales relating to replacements and refunds.
Goods received are incorrect, damaged or faulty on arrival – We’ll typically issue a refund or credit or despatch replacement goods (as per the action requested) within 5 business days of receipt of the faulty goods back in our warehouse.
Goods become faulty during use – We’ll refer you to the manufacturer if the goods are covered by a manufacturer warranty. If the fault develops within 30 days of your receipt of the goods, they may ask you to return the goods to us. In such cases, we’ll most likely need to relay the goods on to the manufacturer for testing, repair and/or replacement before accepting them back and shipping them on to you. The whole process can take up to 6 weeks which is why as far as possible we advise you cut out the middleman and deal with the manufacturer directly.
Goods are no longer required – If you no longer want the products or perhaps you ordered them in error we won’t normally be able to offer a return (see our ). Please contact our returns team if you’d like to discuss this further.
Please bear in mind that we may need to test returned products before a replacement or refund can be arranged. This normally takes between 1 and 3 days but may take longer during busy periods. Please note that if we issue a refund back to your credit or debit card it can take several days before the funds are showing back in your account. This delay is due to the speed at which the banking systems process your transaction and is entirely outside our control.
We ask you to speak directly to the courier (whether you use your own or ours) to arrange a collection simply because it’s the most efficient way to ensure the goods are collected from a location and at a time that suits you best. If circumstances change and you later need to reschedule, it’s less effective if you have to contact us first, particularly if it’s a last minute change.
If your products are to be collected by our courier, we will send you labels to affix on the outer packaging ahead of the collection. The process is very quick and simple - once the goods are packaged (see our guidelines on preparing goods for collection below) and you’ve booked a collection slot, there’s nothing else to do.
If you’ve arranged a courier collection and the driver has failed to arrive within the time slot agreed on the designated collection day, please contact the courier company directly in the first instance. It may be that the driver is running late (perhaps due to traffic conditions) or is having difficulty finding your address. Very rarely a collection may fail for other unforeseen reasons. In such cases, the courier will arrange a new date and time to collect the items instead.
Once issued, an RMA (returns) number remains valid for 14 days. In order to avoid delays processing your return, we must receive your returned goods back within this timeframe. Once an RMA number has expired, you’ll need to submit a new returns request if you’re still in possession of goods that need to be returned.
We place expiry dates on our return authorisations due to the tight deadlines imposed by our couriers and suppliers. For example, if the goods we sent you arrive in a damaged condition, we must notify our couriers as such within 48 hours in order to claim compensation. Similarly, we have up to 30 days to return products we purchase to fulfil your order back to our suppliers. For these reasons, a speedy turnaround is essential when processing your returns request.
It is your responsibility to ensure that any data or other information stored on returning goods is backed up prior to the goods being sent back to us. As per our sales terms and conditions, we accept no liability for the corruption or loss of any data or other information stored or held on such Goods howsoever caused once they are in our possession.
If you’ve accidentally sent us back a product containing such data, please let us know as soon as possible and we’ll try to help.
As well as new products, we also sell open box, refurbished & HP Renew products. All of our products are backed by a warranty.
Open box products are brand new, unused items for which the outer packaging has either been opened or damaged. Open box products are covered by the full manufacturer warranty.
Products we classify as refurbished have been checked and tested to ensure they are fit for sale and come from a variety of sources.
Refurbished products might include:
HP Renew products have been remanufactured to the same standard as new HP products and are backed by the original HP warranty. In other words, there is no difference between the warranty offered for a new HP product and the equivalent HP Renew product.
We’ve provided the following guidelines to ensure the safe and complete arrival of goods returned to us. Please refer to this checklist when packing your returning products to ensure we can process your return swiftly and to your satisfaction.
If you need to contact us regarding a problem with your order, there are some important deadlines you should be aware of. These are as follows:
Goods that arrive in damaged condition – Please notify us within 2 business days of receipt of the goods as this enables us to lodge a claim for compensation with the couriers responsible. If you notice that your goods are damaged when you take receipt of your order, please add the word ‘DAMAGED’ when providing a signature to the courier driver. Doing so both documents the fact that the goods were delivered in substandard condition and enables us to investigate matters further with our courier. We’ll normally replace damaged goods once we’ve received them back in our warehouse. If we can’t replace the goods, we’ll issue a refund instead.
Goods that arrive in faulty condition - If a product you’ve just received proves to be faulty, please let us know within 7 days. We have a small window of opportunity to return faulty goods to our suppliers for a speedy replacement. Outside of this window, the goods will have to go back to the manufacturer instead – a process that can take up to 6 weeks.
Incorrect goods – If the products you receive are not the products you ordered please let us know within 2 business days as this may be due to the courier misrouting your delivery and we are required to report such incidents within a short space of time.
Incomplete goods – If items are missing from the product(s) you’ve received please let us know within 7 days. This gives us sufficient time to arrange for the goods to be returned, investigate the reason for the missing items and if necessary, arrange for the supply of a replacement product.
In general, please try to report all problems as soon as possible to ensure the required course of action is available to us.
If you have a problem with a product you’ve received, please contact our customer service team in the first instance by emailing websales@evaris.com
We may offer to replace your product prior to you returning it to us. Please note that this service is only available to credit account holders and is only offered under certain circumstances at our discretion.
If we offer an advance replacement, we’ll invoice you for the replacement item. A full or partial credit for the original item will be issued once the goods have arrived back with us and have been inspected or tested (as appropriate).
Your order will pass through a number of processing stages as we approve, pick, pack and despatch your ordered items. You will receive an email notification once you’ve placed your order with us confirming the order details. A second email is sent once the order has been despatched which contains a link allowing you to track delivery of your items. If we encounter problems processing your order (we might need additional information for our security checks or we may need to advise that an item is out of stock) we will send additional emails advising you accordingly.
You can check the current status of any order by logging in to your account. Your latest orders and their statuses are displayed on the My Account dashboard. If you need to check additional orders, click My Orders in the left hand menu to view a list of all your orders. You can then click 'view order' to see a full history of status changes and communications relating to that order.
Here’s a list of the possible statuses for an order:
Pending – The default status applied to all new orders. A pending order has yet to pass through our security checks and be approved for processing.
Processing – The order has been approved and is currently in the process of being picked and packed ready for despatch.
Shipped – The order has been collected by our courier and is either currently in transit to you or has been delivered. You will have received a shipping confirmation email containing a link allowing you to track the delivery via the courier’s website. You can also track your order by logging in to your account. Click My Orders in the left hand menu and then the ‘track order’ link shown alongside the order in the orders list.
Complete – The final status for a fully processed order. The order has been shipped and invoiced. A copy of your invoice will be sent to you via email.
On hold – There is a problem with the personal, address or payment information supplied during checkout that prevents us from processing your order. We’ll have sent you an email asking you to contact us to address the problem so we can process your order.
Cancelled - The order has been cancelled by you or by our team. We would cancel an order for any of the following reasons:
If we cancel an order, we’ll send an order cancellation email to the address you provided during checkout to notify you. If you still want to make a purchase, please check your details before placing a new order.
We’ll automatically email you a shipping confirmation email as soon as we despatch your order. This email will contain a link allowing you to track the delivery on our courier’s website. You can also log into your account to view the status of all your orders. Once you’ve logged in, click on My Orders in the left hand menu to view your order list. The order status is shown for each order in the list allowing you to check which orders have been shipped at a glance.
If you pay via a credit or debit card, we’ll preauthorise your card once you submit your card details during checkout. This involves us checking with your card provider that there are funds available to cover the order and us instructing them to allocate those funds towards your order. We only take payment once the goods have been despatched from our (or our supplier’s) warehouse.
If we’re only able to ship part of your order, we’ll take payment for the entire order the first time we despatch goods. This is due to a limitation with our finance systems which prevents us charging you on multiple occasions for a single order.
If you have a with us and elect to pay via your account, we’ll invoice you each time goods are despatched and you’ll then have the number of days stipulated on your invoice to settle your account.
You can cancel your order at any time before it has been shipped. Once it has been despatched, you’ll need to request a return if you no longer want the items ordered. To cancel your order, please call us on 0330 124 1245 or email us at customerservice@evaris.com.
If you need to amend your order, we can normally action this for you up until the point at which the order has been shipped. You’ll need to for such a request as we don’t currently have the facility to allow you to amend the order yourself.
Cancelled orders & refunds
In the event of a cancellation, if you paid by credit or debit card, we’ll normally issue a refund back to the card within 2 business days of the cancellation. Please note that due to the time it takes your card provider to process refunds, you may not see the funds back in your account for several days after your cancellation was actioned. Cancelled orders that were settled via credit account will be issued with a credit note.
Payment differences for amended orders
If we amend your order by substituting products or changing quantities there may be a payment difference between the amended and original order. If we need to charge you for the difference and you paid by credit or debit card, we’ll need to contact you to obtain your card details as we don’t store these for security reasons. If you paid via your credit account, we’ll simply amend your invoice accordingly.
If we need to refund you for the difference, we’ll issue the refund back to your card (if you paid via credit or debit card) or update the invoice accordingly (for credit account purchases). Please note that due to the time it takes your card provider to process refunds, you may not see the funds back in your account for several days after your cancellation was actioned.
If your order contains more than one item, there is a small possibility that one or more of the items ordered may be out of stock. This can happen because the stock levels displayed on our website are not live stock levels. We update them frequently but we can’t display real time stock levels because up to the minute stock information isn't available for the full range of products we sell online.
When this happens:
Often, the outstanding products can be sourced quickly and will be despatched within a couple of days but if not, we’ll contact you to offer suitable alternatives or to cancel the unavailable items from your order.
Because our stock range is stored in a number of geographical locations, to expedite shipping, we may sometimes choose to ship orders via multiple deliveries (or consignments) rather than first consolidating the order. As with all deliveries, you will always be notified in advance via email so you’ll be able to contact us if there’s a problem. Often, we’ll arrange to do this at your request (e.g. you order several products but need one of them urgently).
Our mission is to ensure our prices remain as competitive as possible at all times. The volume of products we sell means it's impractical for us to monitor our prices manually so we use a number of tools to continuously check the marketplace and update our prices accordingly. As a result, it’s not uncommon for our prices to change frequently, sometimes more than once a day, as we respond to changes made by our competitors.
Unfortunately, once we’ve shipped your order we will be unable to issue any retrospective refunds as the prices we advertise represent our best offer at the time your order is placed.
However, if you find a product you’ve recently ordered has dropped in price and the order has not yet been shipped, you can contact us to discuss your order prior to despatch.
Despite our best efforts, we recognise that there are times when mistakes can be made or things go wrong resulting in you receiving incorrect, incomplete, damaged or faulty goods. Such problems are rare but if this has happened to you, we apologise, and we’ll do our best to put things right as quickly and efficiently as possible.
If there is a problem with your received order please contact us to let us know.

The vast majority of the products we sell are covered by a manufacturer warranty and dealing with them directly is the fastest, most convenient way to get the fault addressed. There are several reasons for this including the following:
Our couriers are required to obtain a signature at the point of delivery. They are not permitted to leave goods without a signature (e.g. in a safe place). As far as possible, you should ensure someone will be available to take delivery of the goods before placing an order with us. If nobody is available to sign for the delivery, the courier usually leaves a card to advise that delivery has been attempted.
The couriers we use typically deliver on the next business day following collection although it can take longer for outlying areas or in severe weather conditions.
The delivery companies we use are established companies with excellent track records and good levels of service. On rare occasions though, packages can get lost or misrouted adding to the usual delivery timescales. If you want to chase up a delivery, contact our customer service team who'll be happy to help.
There are several reasons why an order you’ve placed hasn’t shipped. These include the following:
We’ll notify you via email as soon as your order has been shipped. Most orders placed before 17:00 are shipped on the following business day.
Unfortunately customer collections from our premises are not possible for several reasons.
We recognise that it can be helpful to view a physical product prior to purchase and with that in mind we’ve tried to provide a number of product photos on our website showing the product from multiple angles. We’re constantly adding product videos to our product pages and our blog contains a wealth of product related information that can also help you with your buying decision.
We cannot currently accept payment by credit or debit cards which are registered to an address outside of the United Kingdom & Ireland.
If you’d like to place an order with us but don’t have a UK registered card, you can instead or to discuss alternative methods of payment we can process manually.
Together with our suppliers, we work with a number of leading courier companies to provide a range of delivery services. Our primary couriers are currently UPS, Palletways and TNT although we’re constantly evaluating our supplier relationships in a bid to provide the most competitive and efficient service possible.
Our systems automatically assigns a courier to fulfil an order based on factors including the type of goods, delivery address, delivery service and the holding location of the goods being delivered. .
We cannot normally override the courier selected for orders placed via our website. If you have a preferred courier you’d like us to use, it’s best you contact us to process your order.
We currently only provide our standard delivery service for orders placed online. Typically orders despatched via our standard delivery service are delivered the next business day although this timescale is not guaranteed.
We can often provide additional delivery services such as timed or Saturday deliveries but because these are only available under certain circumstances, we must arrange them manually.
If you want to book a non-standard delivery for an order you can place the order online and contact us requesting the upgrade. We’ll come back to you to advise if the requested service is available. Note that there will be a surcharge payable for non-standard delivery services.
If you'd like to have items sent to separate UK addresses, you’ll need to place a separate order for each address you want to ship to.

A 3D printer produces physical objects from images that have typically been created on CAD software. This is achieved by laying down a thin layer of material (known as a filament) onto a bed. Further layers are printed over the initial layer progressively building up the final object. This is know as FFF/FDM – Fused Filament Fabrication or Fused Deposition Modeling©. The filament cools on contact and bonds together to create a strong, hard finished object.
In 3D Printing terms, the print material ( or ink) is know as Filament or Resin. Different Filament types and Resin have different uses, capabilities and properties.
The most common type of Filament used by Schools is PLA (Polylactic Acid). PLA is manufactured from plant extracts and is widely adopted due to its non toxic/biodegradable properties.
ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene) is another commonly used filament that offers strong physical strength. It is used predominantly for rapid prototyping applications and is non-biodegradable.
The main running costs are linked to the print material (i.e. filament) being used. A solid, filled matchbox sized object will cost approximately 30p to produce.
On average, a typical filament spool can produce between 200 and 250 matchbox sized objects.
In terms of electricity costs - a 4 hour print job will consume approximately the same amount of electricity as boiling a kettle once.
For simplicity 3D printers can broadly be divided into the following categories:
Beginner - These entry level printer models are inexpensive, feature light units aimed at users who are new to 3D printing and curiosity users with some models specifically designed for children. Easy to setup, specifications and object print sizes on entry level models will generally be limited in line with their low prices.
Intermediate - Aimed at existing users, hobbyists, creative individuals, education and small to medium businesses. A step up from the entry level models, these printers remain affordable and offer good resolutions, specifications and performance for a modest price.
Experienced - Models in this category are designed for users requiring a premium quality printed product. Designers, higher education, research institutes and dentistry are typical examples of organisations who would require a 3D printer in this category. Despite being amied at the more experienced users, most models in this category remain simple and easy to set up straight out of the box.
Professional - Designed for users requiring rapid prototyping and finished product design quality objects. Professional 3D printers boast the highest resolutions and most expansive feature sets on the market at a premium price. They support printing on a wider range of filaments including PEEK (high temperature material) and many models have dual extruder heads for more complex print applications such as dual colour or dual material print jobs.
3D printing is becoming increasingly prevalent with small businesses, education and home users. Knowing which 3D printer is best suited to your needs can be tricky though with multiple factors to weigh up ahead of purchase. Answering the following questions before giving us a ring is a good place to start.
What do you want to print? How big are the objects to be printed and what material(s) do you want to use?
Do you need to print in multiple materials and/or colours?
What level of quality will be acceptable in your finished product?
How will the finished products be used?
How do you want to connect to the printer for printing?
What operating system does your 3D printing software need to work on?
