Technology & Products

Key Products

KODAK Portrait 3D Printer; KODAK 3D Printing Filaments; KODAK 3D Cloud software; KODAK 3D Slicer

Technological Advantage

Verified advantage: Filaments achieve 9x stronger PLA+ than ABS and moisture levels below 0.025%, protected by Kodak's material science expertise. Defensible through brand and trade secrets, but replicable by competitors.

Differentiation

Value Proposition

Reduces material waste and downtime with low-moisture filaments (<0.025% moisture) and dual-extrusion capabilities, cutting prototyping costs by up to 30% and enabling on-demand manufacturing of functional components.

How They Differentiate

3x lower moisture content in filaments (0.025% vs 0.1% industry standard) and dual-extrusion reliability at 30% lower cost-per-part compared to Formlabs Fuse 1 for nylon components.

Market & Competition

Target Customers

Creative professionals, designers, architects, engineers, and educational institutions seeking reliable desktop 3D printing for prototyping and end-use parts.

Industry Verticals

Education; Design; Engineering; Architecture

Competitors

Bambu Lab; Formlabs; Prusa Research

Growth & Milestones

Growth Metrics

The AM3D division, which includes 3D printing technology, reported Q3 2018 revenues of $1 million and Operational EBITDA of -$2 million, improved by $4 million year-over-year due to cost reductions. Kodak's full 2024 revenue was $1.15 billion, but no polymer AM-specific breakdown is available.
