The simple answer is that running our materials does not affect the warranty on your machine. None of our customers have ever been refused service. Most customers will have a NDA in place to protect Company Confidential Information. The NDA precludes the service engineer from disclosing how you run your machine and what materials you run on it. There is very clear case law in the USA & Canada, which protects the interest of warranty owners, which makes your 3D Printer warranty valid irrespective of who manufactures the materials you decide to run in your machine.
Bear in mind 70-95% of the cost of running a 3D Printer is the cost of materials. No wonder OEM manufacturers want to try locking you in to elusively running expensive OEM Material. Running Argyle Materials and saving 25% of your materials costs will save you $5,000 to $15,000 per machine per year. After a couple of years you have saved the cost of a new printer.
Often in maintenance contracts OEM Printer Manufactures will insert a clause to require customers to exclusively run their materials. When you sign a Maintenance Renewal agreement and there is a clause in the agreement where you agree to not run third party materials: strike this clause before signing.
If you already have an agreement with the OEM remember: you will probably have a Non-Disclosure or Confidentially Agreement in place. Most companies require visitors to sign Non-Disclosure or Confidentiality Agreement (NDA) so anything they see or learn while at your facility is required to be kept confidential. i.e. If you have a Non-Disclosure agreement in place, it is illegal for the OEM field service engineer to report to his company that you are running third party materials.
