中国3D打印机制造商Farsoon Technologies在2021年11月的每月营业额达到了有史以来最高的每月营业额之后，已经揭露了扩张计划。
Across its material, service and application offering, Farsoon managed to generate $15 million over the course of the month, including the sale of over forty machines. Following its recent rise in demand, the firm now intends to grow its capacity via a new polymer powder production facility, designed to enable it to better meet the needs of its client base.
“Despite the challenging pandemic situation, Farsoon has been able to deliver strong performance, supporting recovering global industrial demand,” said Don Xu, Director of Farsoon’s Global Business Group. “With continuous technology innovation and increasing market share, Farsoon has proved itself a strong and stable additive manufacturing partner that customers can trust.”
Farsoon的市场扩张
因为被ex-DTM成立公司(现在3D Systems）技术主管Xu Xiaoshu博士在2009年，Farsoon继续将自己确立为中国领先的粉末床融合（PBF）3D打印机制造商之一，并且它继续发展其金属和聚合物产品组合以及全球可寻址市场。
After expanding into the U.S by setting up Farsoon Technologies-Americas in Austin, Texas during 2017, the firm launched its first Continuous Additive Manufacturing Solution (CAMS) system, theHT1001P. This was followed by the establishment of Farsoon Europe GmbH in Stuttgart, Germany a year later, and the roll-out of the company’s下一代“飞行”聚合物3D打印technology a year after that.
Since then, Farsoon has continued to add larger and more powerful machines to its metal 3D printing offering, including its cost-efficientFS273Mand heavy-dutyFS721Msystems, which pack up to two and eight lasers respectively, enabling them to open a wider variety of automotive, tooling and industrial applications to users.
这些技术的成功已在定期销售更新中得到了证实，该公司宣布了其有史以来最大的聚合物打印机订单在2020年9月。去年年底，也透露Farsoon doubled its revenuebetween Q1 and Q3 2020, and more recently, the firm announced that it had reached a landmark, having安装了500 3D打印机雷电竞app下载worldwide.
Metal 3D printing leads the way
Due to the fact that Farsoon isn’t publicly-traded, we only tend to get an insight into its finances when it reaches significant sales milestones. As a result, it can be difficult to contextualize the firm’s revenue figures, but given that its latest numbers represent its highest of any month to date, it’s safe to say that Farsoon is enjoying something of a mid-pandemic sales boom.
据该公司介绍,它取得了“增加了growth across its whole product portfolio” during November 2021, thanks largely to its metal-related offering which drove more than 60% of this demand, with its machines being bought to power “several major projects” in the aerospace, transportation, medical, molds and tooling and service bureau sectors.
特别是，徐赞扬了法苏恩在欧洲和北美的金属印刷基地的增长，这是一个重要的一步，并表示，由于其强大的机器订单积压，他“对2022年的积极前景充满信心”。为了支持其正在进行的扩张，该公司还增加了研发支出，将其专用团队从300名员工增加到450名员工，并揭露了以其物质能力为基础的计划。
“在2021年，法苏恩一直在迅速发展我们的团队，” Farsoon总经理Hoph Hou补充说。“我们也很高兴分享，我们正在使用新的制造设施扩展，并使用新的专用网站来完成新的制造设施，以增加聚合物粉末材料的生产；为了为我们的全球客户提供高质量的机器和物质解决方案。”
Farsoon的数字如何比较？
Given that fellow market leaderEOSis also traded privately, it’s somewhat difficult to assess how Farsoon’s figures stack up against those of its competitors, but there is some evidence to suggest that PBF manufacturers are seeing rising demand.
Metal 3D printer manufacturerTRUMPF, for instance, announced in July that it expects to have generated€33亿欧元的产品订单, of which additive systems are a part of, for the 2020/21 financial year. Although the firm is also traded privately, thus it doesn’t publish its full results, it does provide occasional insights into its business, with its latest revealing a growing demand from Chinese clientele, particularly those in automotive.
在德国的其他地方，公开交易的PBF系统制造商SLM Solutions,published flat revenue figuresfor the first half of 2021 earlier this year. However, at the time, the company’s CEO Sam O’Leary maintained that he expects “business to continue to pick up” during H2 2021, due in part to the firm’s significant €30.2 million order backlog.
同时，在英国雷尼沙报道税前利润为1.2亿英镑within its FY 2021 financial results. Despite posting very healthy figures, including a total revenue of £566 million, the company’s 3D printing sales actually fell during the period, after the division underwent a ‘Fit for the Future’ resizing which saw it refocus on productivity, reduce its cost base and prioritize ‘significant design projects.’
