Description
Introducing FS721M Production Platform. Addressing the challenges in metal manufacturing focusing around size constraints, process control, cost-efficiency and production scalability, Farsoon developed the FS721M with an industry-leading build volume of 720 x 420 x 420 mm and equipped with 2 or 4 lasers with 500W each. The FS721M 8-laser configuration is currently under Beta status. It offers many unique capabilities featuring productivity, quality, operational ease and best cost-to-performance.
Discover FS721M System
- 1-Build Station
The build Station module is where the sintering process takes place. Once the build cartridge is in place, the build packet files would be loaded into Farsoon’s BuildStarTM operating software, then the build process begins.
- 2-Breakout Station
The integrated breakout station attached to the main system offers enhanced ease of use. When the FS721M completes a build, the full build cartridge is transferred through an internal conveyer system to the breakout station. This fully enclosed work station allows for the safe and clean removal of powder from a completed build without the user needing to come in contact with the powder.
- 3-Filtration Station
The reactive material capable Recirculating Filter System offers efficient filtering of the smoke dust generated in the build chamber during the sintering process. Its advanced capability allows for long-lasting operation hours which help reduce the cost of filter changes.
- 4-Powder Supply System
FS721M Powder Supply System offers efficient powder handling under inert gas protection. It is collects used powder from the Breakout station to sieving process; then deliver the refreshed powder to the powder supply hopper of FS721M.
- 5-Sieving System
The powder sieving station features a vibration screen offering efficient sieving of recycled metal powder from the overflow & recycled hoppers to filter the large particles. The metal powder collected in the refreshed powder bin can be re-used for powder supply.

Production Ready
The FS721M was from the very beginning designed for productivity. Ifs large build volume of 720 x 420 x 420mm is one of the largest currently available in the metal laser powder bed fusion landscape. The rectangular build volume is optimized for the production of large parts which favor one axis, this is especially valuable in industries such as automotive and tooling. Also, the rectangular build chamber is well suited for multi-laser configuration to boost industry־ leading build rate.
Precision + Quality
Farsoorfs advanced software control and precise scanning system offer uniform performance in multi- laser overlap zones. Continuous powder feeding, optimized gas flow and integrated filter module enable the uniform melting process of metal material.
Powerful build process controls & real-time re-coating monitoring ensure the optimal industrial build quality.
Ease of Use
The FS721 M’s integrated conveyer system, breakout station and advanced powder handling system allow for an efficient and safe build cylinder transportation and fully-sealed de-powdering process. Features such as advanced calibration and electric leveling offer streamlined workflow. The FS721M is a truly open platform offers the user flexibility to tailor processing parameters for industrial applications and cost- competitive metal additive manufacturing.
Industrial Applications with FS721M
Featuring a unique rectangular industrial sized build platform, FS721M are well suited for large-scaled application favored one axis, or high-volume series production targeted applications aiming to open up new potential opportunities in molds & tooling, automotive and large-format industrial manufacturing.
