UNSPSC 23261507: Three dimensional printing machine

A type of printing machine that uses a process that starts by depositing a layer of powder object material at the top of a fabrication chamber. To accomplish this, a measured quantity of powder is first dispensed from a similar supply chamber by moving a piston upward incrementally. The roller then distributes and compresses the powder at the top of the fabrication chamber. The multi-channel jetting head subsequently deposits a liquid adhesive in a two dimensional pattern onto the layer of the powder which becomes bonded.

UNSPSC 23261507 Three dimensional printing machine is a Commodity code. State and local governments soliciting under this code are buying additive manufacturing equipment and related fabrication machinery, though recent activity shows a broader equipment procurement pattern. The Texas A&M University System dominates the recent opportunities block, issuing multiple ITBs for 3D printers, CNC routers, and press brakes through its AggieBid electronic procurement platform. All Texas A&M solicitations require electronic submission through AggieBid with strict deadline enforcement and no late submissions accepted; questions and addenda flow exclusively through that platform rather than through traditional ESBD postings. A single Sourcewell cooperative purchasing RFP for law enforcement equipment also appears in the recent record, though that procurement spans a broader geographic footprint across multiple state and local jurisdictions and does not directly align with the three-dimensional printing equipment focus of the code.

Texas A&M University System drove recent activity under this code between mid-September and mid-October 2026. Representative solicitations include ITB TAMUS-ITB-27-0544 for 3D printers (due September 24, 2026), ITB TAMUS-ITB-27-0546 for an industrial CNC router (due October 23, 2026), and ITB TAMUS-ITB-27-0548 for a press brake (due October 29, 2026). All sourcing flows through Sterling Crowdus at soprocurement@tamus.edu or through the Q&A section on AggieBid at https://bids.sciquest.com. Contract values, specifications, incumbent information, and set-aside details remain unavailable in ESBD postings and are accessible only within the full AggieBid documentation. Geographic spread is limited to Texas based on the available recent opportunities record.
