Binder jet 3D printer manufacturervoxeljet(VJET)宣布,其收入在2022年第三季度上涨了570万欧元,比第三季度2021年第三季度的490万欧元增长了16.1%。

虽然Voxeljet的3D打印机同比下跌,但该季度的服务收入增长了24.2%,至30雷电竞app下载0万欧元。根据该公司本身,这种增长在很大程度上取决于其德国服务中心和Voxeljet America子公司所看到的“更高的收入贡献”,这反映了“欧洲以及北美的市场需求增加”。

“We are very happy with our performance over the last month as we continue to collect large orders for our 3D printers, make progress in key R&D projects and we’re extremely busy in our on-demand 3D printing segment,” said Dr. Ingo Ederer, CEO of voxeljet. “With the demand for our product as high as ever, we are very excited about how we are positioned for the coming years.”

voxeljet’s Q3 2022 financials

VoxelJet从销售其粘合剂喷气机和高速烧结(HSS)3D打印机以及通过其在中国,德国,印度,印度,美国和英国产生的零件的订单产生收入。雷电竞app下载在2022年第三季度,该公司的系统部门总计270万欧元,比第3季度2021年的8.3%高出8.3%,但比第2季度2022年产生的360万欧元低25.0%。

Although voxeljet sold the same number of machines as it did in Q3 last year, selling one new and one used/refurbished system, product mix caused its revenue in this area to fall year-on-year. This decline was offset by an increase in the firm’s consumable, spare part and maintenance-related revenue, which grew significantly over the same period, thanks primarily to its expanding install base.

Compared to Systems, voxeljet’s Services division demonstrated far more rapid growth, thanks to strong demand seen in Germany and the US, which outpaced that of its Chinese business. The firm’s Services gross profit also rose to €1 million quarter-on-quarter while its Systems gross profit fell to €0.7 million. voxeljet has put this down to the robust performance of its German service center, as well as a change in its inventory policy, which saw it spend another €154,000 in this area.

深入研究Voxeljet的唱片积压

尽管VoxelJet的3D打印机收入在2022年第三季度下降,但在本季度以1370万欧元的新创纪录的收入结束了。在公司的收益电话中,埃德尔解释说:“按需打印收入是未来3D打印机的未来销售的好指标”,因此表明其服务需求也开始反映在系统订单中。雷电竞app下载

Another aspect that voxeljet’s CEO highlighted as being vital to 3D printing’s adoption in end-use scenarios is the technology’s ‘integration into automated workflows.’ Alongside an unnamed carmaker, Ederer revealed that the company has installed a run of five printers which are now operated independently by the customer, whileSharrow Marinehas begun voxeljet-printing its next-gen propeller.

In other recent developments, voxeljet has started working withGE可再生能源andFraunhofer IGCVto develop theworld’s largest wind turbine blade 3D printer。Long standing US customer TI, meanwhile, has adopted fourvoxeljetVX4000units for the production of large complex castings, designed to be fitted to the underbody of an upcoming electric vehicle (EV).

In terms of future deliveries, voxeljet has finished assembling its firstVX1000 HSSBeta系统和这些系统目前正在内部进行调试。一旦准备就绪,预计将在明年年初将其运送给客户。该公司还在3D打印混凝土粉VX200in Q3, and Ederer said this has drawn interest from companies ‘operating large steel plants.’

Reaffirming guidance for FY 2022

随着我们进入第四季度,Voxeljet预测收入为900万欧元至1200万欧元,并重申其2022财年的2500万欧元至3000万欧元的指导,如果意识到,这意味着任何事物的年增长率可能从0.8%到21.0%。。然而,由于物质采购的延迟,该公司的Q4研发费用和资本支出的总和至少比预计的预期少170万欧元。

More broadly, Ederer added that the company has been able to tidy up its balance sheet over the last quarter, leaving it with €10.2 million in cash and equivalents. As such, he believes the firm is well positioned to take advantage of wider trends in manufacturing, and leverage demand for its new products to drive “meaningful top-line growth.”

“八月,我们签署了销售和售后回租transaction of our headquarters in Germany, which closed on October 31, 2022,” concluded Ederer. “This cleans up our balance sheet as we use the proceeds of this transaction to repay most of our financial liabilities. With the demand for our products as high as ever, we are very excited about how we are positioned for the coming years.”
