Farsoon has introduced the completion of a challenge with Stark Future S.L., a Spanish producer of electrical off-road bikes, which has resulted within the manufacturing of over 1,000 titanium 3D printed elements.
The collaborative engineering initiative used Farsoon’s 12-laser FS811M steel 3D printer to construct the KLINGA Sabre, a 60cm sculpture impressed by Stark Future’s electrical motocross bike VARG. The design options sharp angles, advanced geometries, and a useful titanium moose-head bottle opener, and in response to each firms represents “a benchmark of what fashionable additive manufacturing can obtain.”
188 KLINGA sabres had been produced in a single 248-hour construct, delivering a median construct time of below 80 minutes per unit. The sculpture, Farsoon claims, may also be reproduced with the identical high quality and workflow on Farsoon’s FS721M platform, which is presently utilized by Stark Future.
“The KLINGA Undertaking was a daring manner for us to push boundaries—not simply in design, however in manufacturing,” says Benjamin Cobb, Director Model Communications at Stark Future. “Partnering with Farsoon allowed us to show an bold concept right into a titanium actuality. It’s proof that large-scale, high-precision steel additive manufacturing is prepared for serial manufacturing. It additionally validated our perception that 3D printing can ship efficiency, high quality, and sustainability—abruptly.”
Oliver Huizhi Li, Managing Director of Farsoon Europe stated, “From sharp-edged half design to titanium course of optimisation, this challenge displays what’s potential when engineering ambition meets scalable AM expertise.”
Final month Farsoon marked one other milestone – the sale of its a hundred and fiftieth large-format ‘meter-scale’ steel 3D printer. The Chinese language additive manufacturing OEM says the quantity contains these machines able to constructing elements measuring no less than metre tall, a {hardware} class which the corporate has continued to push lately.
