Become a Z Corporation Authorized Channel Partner.
Z Corporation has a strong network of channel partners around the world that sell and support our 3D printing, rapid prototyping, and 3D scanning solutions. These authorized distributors and resellers are certified to provide the highest quality of service and support for our customers.
Z Corporation is always looking to add new channel partners to our team—partners who have industry and technical expertise, a focus on customer service, and a solid track record of business growth and success. Join the team that will help you develop new business opportunities, diversify your solution offerings, and enter growth markets in 3D printing, rapid prototyping, and 3D scanning.
Market Leadership
Z Corporation is the market, technology and innovation leader in color 3D printing since the company’s founding in 1994. With more than 5,500 ZPrinters installed around the world, Z Corporation is well positioned for continued growth in the $1B+ ‘Additive Fabrication’ market. ZPrinters are being used for functional prototypes and visualization models in aerospace, architecture/engineering/construction, automotive, consumer products, education, entertainment, geospatial, government/military, industrial machinery, medical/dental, and other industries worldwide.
Business Opportunity
3D printing represents the largest and fastest-growing segment in the Additive Fabrication market. Industry sales are forecasted to double over the next four years. Z Corporation partners are poised to participate in this growth opportunity by selling and servicing the only true color 3D printing systems available in the industry. Z Corporation offers competitive margins on product sales and annual maintenance agreements. Moreover, channel partners earn a percentage of 3D printing consumable products ordered by their customers. This annuity stream becomes very attractive to our channel partners once their installed base begins to grow.
Handheld laser scanning systems represent an important incremental sales opportunity for Z Corporation Channel Partners. Our ZScanner line of hand held laser scanners are frequently sold to the same customers who buy CAD software and 3D printers from our channel partners. ZScanners are much simpler to set up and use than other types of scanners, making them easier for Z Corporation Channel Partners to sell.
In May 2010, Z Corporation introduced a new Rapid Prototyping (RP) system called the ZBuilder™ Ultra for accurate, high-resolution plastic prototypes. ZBuilder rapid prototyping systems create high-end functional prototypes for a fraction of the cost of stereolithography machines. These all-in-one devices build parts additively using a high-resolution Digital Light Processor (DLP) projector to solidify a liquid photopolymer, resulting in durable plastic parts that mimic injection molding for accuracy, material properties, detail, and surface finish.
Partner Support
Z Corporation offers its channel partners a variety of sales, marketing and technical support programs. Sales training, lead generation programs, and certification training are offered to all authorized channel partners. Online support through the ZCentral web site is a convenient and powerful tool that is continuously updated with sales tools, online learning courses, application notes, best practices, model images and ZPrint files, competitive information, and other industry, sales and support related content.
