The short version

  • Each has a real cost: 3YOURMIND no pricing is published, and the suite is modular, so the quoted figure depends on which of the three product lines you take; the widely repeated 10,000 euro figure comes from third-party directories, not the vendor.; Erbessd Instruments erbessd is a small manufacturer against SKF, Emerson and Bently Nevada, so global service coverage, calibration logistics and enterprise procurement processes are thinner than the incumbents.
  • They diverge on capability: 3YOURMIND covers Part identification, Erbessd Instruments covers DigivibeMX.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 1 September 2026.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

3YOURMIND

  • No pricing is published, and the suite is modular, so the quoted figure depends on which of the three product lines you take; the widely repeated 10,000 euro figure comes from third-party directories, not the vendor.
  • The part identification module only produces useful output if ERP master data and consumption history are clean, and organisations with poor material master data spend the first phase on data quality rather than printing.
  • It is enterprise-scale software aimed at fleets and networks; a shop with a handful of machines gets more from a printer vendor own job management at no extra cost.
  • Machine integration depth varies by manufacturer, so a mixed fleet including smaller or newer OEMs often needs manual steps that undermine the automated scheduling case.
  • The company is a mid-sized independent in a sector that has consolidated heavily, and buyers making a multi-year distributed manufacturing commitment are exposed to that if ownership changes.

Erbessd Instruments

  • Erbessd is a small manufacturer against SKF, Emerson and Bently Nevada, so global service coverage, calibration logistics and enterprise procurement processes are thinner than the incumbents.
  • Nothing in the range carries functional safety certification, so it cannot perform machine protection or shutdown duties and must sit alongside a protection system on critical machines.
  • DigivibeMX is Windows-only, so an organisation standardised on managed cloud or Linux tooling has to maintain a Windows analysis workstation.
  • Enterprise integration is limited to APIs and generic protocols, so pushing findings into SAP PM or a large EAM will need custom middleware rather than a supported connector.
  • The hardware and software are a matched pair, so Phantom sensors are analysed through Erbessd software and cannot be pointed at a third-party analytics platform.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

3YOURMIND: What does 3YOURMIND cost?

The vendor publishes nothing. Expect an annual subscription quoted per module, plus integration work. Third-party listings cite roughly 10,000 euro a year as an entry point, which should be treated as unverified.

Erbessd Instruments: Can I actually buy sensors online?

Yes. Erbessd runs a public store listing individual sensors, modules and both gateways with prices and stock, which is unusual in this sector.

3YOURMIND: Is it a slicer?

No. It sits above build preparation, handling part selection, orders, scheduling and traceability, and integrates with preparation tools such as Netfabb and Magics.

Erbessd Instruments: Do I have to use the cloud?

No. DigivibeMX keeps data in a local database, and EI-Analytic is the optional browser-based alternative using the same sensors.

3YOURMIND: Who actually uses it?

Large asset operators and service bureaus. Public references include US Navy distributed manufacturing and energy sector digital inventory programmes.

Erbessd Instruments: How many sensors does one gateway take?

Gateway 2.0 supports up to 250 sensors; a USB gateway is available for direct PC connection.

3YOURMIND: Can it run on-premise?

Yes. On-premise deployment is offered, which matters for defence and critical infrastructure customers.

Erbessd Instruments: Can it trip a machine on high vibration?

No. It is monitoring and diagnostics only, with no safety certification for protection duties.
