FS191M features a standard φ191mm×199mm build cylinder and robust 500-Watt fiber laser.
FRANKFURT, Germany, Dec 9, 2024 – Farsoon has unveiled the FS191M, a next-generation metal PBF solution designed to elevate productivity, enhance cost-performance, and simplify operations across a wide range of industrial applications. Building on the legacy of the FS121M, the FS191M represents a significant advancement for users seeking versatile solutions for both pilot projects and low-volume manufacturing.
“The FS191M builds on the success of our small volume FS121M system, first launched in 2016,” said Wenyu Guo, director of Farsoon’s metal product line. “Over the past six years, we’ve worked closely with industrial and research partners to optimize productivity, streamline workflows, and expand process capabilities—all while maintaining a low cost of ownership. This approach is enabling us to unlock new markets, including consumer products, tooling, and more.”
Compact + Versatile Solutions
The FS191M features a standard φ191mm×199mm build cylinder (a 5.64-liter build envelope) and robust 500-Watt fiber laser—offering nearly 4 times the build volume of the FS121M. This positions it as one of the largest build capacities in its category, ideal for small-batch production. For research and development purposes, the FS191M offers an optional φ78mm×80mm build platform, which reduces material costs and enhances flexibility. The ability to switch easily between platform sizes adds exceptional value, allowing users to transition seamlessly from validation to low-volume production.
Designed with a compact footprint of 0.94 square meter, the FS191M can be conveniently deployed in office environments, providing versatility for a variety of setups.
