About this product

The Farsoon FS350M is a multi-laser LPBF platform for medium- to high-volume metal series production, available in three laser configurations — 4×500 W (FS350M-4), 4×1000 W with Beam Shaping and 6×500 W. All three share the same 17.1×14.1×15.7 in / 433×358×400 mm build cylinder and the same 65 sq ft / 6 m² class footprint, in 316L, AlSi10Mg, Ti6Al4V, 17-4PH, ST1 and Maraging Steel Grade 300.

Why engineers choose the FS350M

Four things your process engineer will check first.

Laser power matched to your part mix

Four 500 W, four 1000 W with Beam Shaping, or six 500 W lasers — same build cylinder either way. Scanning runs at up to 32.8 ft/s / 10 m/s, with recoating at 400 mm/s and roughly 8 seconds per layer.

Truly open platform

Key machine parameters are open. BuildStar and MakeStar allow real-time build parameter modification, so you can qualify an in-house alloy or tune a recipe instead of waiting for a vendor release.

Closed-loop powder management

Sealed supply tank, front glove boxes for breakout, and one shared container for loading, unloading and sieving. Powder stays under argon or nitrogen from delivery through recycling.

Three-stage filtration with back-flush

An integrated three-stage filter module rated for reactive materials. Back-flush extends filter life and cuts the cost of filter changes. Full chamber purge takes 11 minutes; inert gas draw in process is 3–5 L/min.

Three configurations on one platform

Farsoon builds the FS350M in three laser configurations. The build cylinder, the footprint and the powder handling do not change between them — what changes is how much laser you put over the same plate. We supply all three.

Configuration Lasers What it is for
FS350M-4 4 × 500 W The established baseline, with over 100 systems installed in the consumer products sector alone. The default choice for mixed series production.
FS350M 4×1000 W 4 × 1000 W + Beam Shaping Double the laser power plus Beam Shaping, which widens the melt pool. Farsoon states up to twice the build efficiency of the 4×500 W configuration, and better support for specialty alloys.
FS350M 6×500 W 6 × 500 W Developed with industry partners for industrial-scale throughput on serial runs of small to medium parts, where nesting keeps every laser busy.

Build cylinder 17.1×14.1×15.7 in / 433×358×400 mm and the 6 m² class footprint are the same on all three. Productivity claims are Farsoon's; which configuration pays back on your part mix is the conversation to have before the order.

How we deliver and support it

What happens between the purchase order and your first qualified part.

Step 01
Pick the configuration, scope the cell

We size the laser count against your part mix and annual volume, then plan power, argon or nitrogen supply and extraction with your facilities team. Footprint is 65 sq ft / 6 m² class with filtration integrated; the US transformer ships with the machine.

Step 02
Install and train in the USA

Commissioning and operator training by our US service team. First builds are run together, so your operators hand over parts rather than a checklist.

Step 03
Parameters, spares, engineer

Validated parameter sets for your alloy, US-held spares, and an applications engineer who has run LPBF in production in-house at AO Metal. Sub-4h reply, NDA standard.

What the FS350M is built for

The FS350M-4 ran in serial production at customer sites for close to two years before Farsoon released it to the global market. The platform sits in the range where a part has stopped being a prototype: molds and tooling, automotive and aerospace hardware, and consumer parts produced in repeating batches. Process parameter development — variable layer thickness, adaptive scanning for infill versus detail — is what raises throughput without giving up part quality. Full specifications are in the Specifications tab below.

Build chamber and powder handling

Farsoon FS350M powder handling chain - supply tank, glove box, filtration, shared container, sieving and delivery units
The closed powder chain around the FS350M, numbered as listed below.
  • 1 — Powder supply tank. Connects to the powder delivery unit for fully sealed material delivery under an inert atmosphere, without disturbing the build in progress.
  • 2 — Glove box. Sealed glove boxes at the front of the machine allow safe breakout once the build is complete.
  • 3 — Integrated filtration system. Three-stage recirculating filter module rated for reactive materials, with a back-flush function that extends filter life.
  • 4 — Shared metal container. One container for loading, unloading and sieving, which simplifies powder handling and transport between stations.
  • 5 — Sieving unit. A vibration screen filters oversize particles out of recycled powder; refreshed powder goes straight back into supply.
  • 6 — Powder delivery unit. A top-feed system tracks powder level in the container and signals a refill; the refill unit docks and tops up material without disturbing the build.

Qualified materials

Farsoon lists 316L, AlSi10Mg, Ti6Al4V, 17-4PH, ST1 and Maraging Steel Grade 300 for the FS350M, with further grades in process development. Because the platform is open, a grade outside that list is a parameter development project rather than a dead end, and one we can run with you. We stock 316L, AlSi10Mg and Ti-6Al-4V in the USA, lot-certified.

Common questions

Don't see yours? Email [email protected] — NDA standard, typical reply within 4 hours.

Which alloys are qualified for the Farsoon FS350M?
Farsoon qualifies 316L, AlSi10Mg, Ti6Al4V, 17-4PH, ST1 and Maraging Steel Grade 300 for the FS350M, with further grades in process development. Because the FS350M is an open platform, running a grade outside that list is a parameter development project rather than a blocked path, and we scope it with you. Additive Plus stocks lot-certified 316L, AlSi10Mg and Ti-6Al-4V powder in the USA, so reordering does not mean re-qualifying a new supplier.
Which laser configuration should we buy?
The FS350M comes as 4×500 W (the FS350M-4), 4×1000 W with Beam Shaping, or 6×500 W. All three share the 433×358×400 mm build cylinder and the 6 m² class footprint, so the choice is purely about how much laser you want over the same plate. Farsoon states the 4×1000 W configuration with Beam Shaping reaches up to twice the build efficiency of the 4×500 W, and the 6×500 W was developed for industrial-scale serial runs of small to medium parts. We supply all three and will run the comparison on your part mix and annual volume.
Is the FS350M open, or locked to vendor parameters?
Open. Key machine parameters are accessible, and BuildStar and MakeStar allow real-time build parameter modification with layer-by-layer control. That means variable layer thickness within one build and adaptive scanning for infill versus detail. For a production team this is the difference between waiting on a vendor release and qualifying your own recipe on the FS350M.
What does installation in the USA involve?
Our US service team handles commissioning and operator training for the FS350M, and we plan the cell with your facilities group before the order: a 65 sq ft / 6 m² class footprint with filtration integrated, argon or nitrogen supply at 3–5 L/min in process, and power. The machine is specified at 400 V for EUR/China; for the USA the transformer is supplied with it.
How is powder handled between builds, and is it safe for Ti6Al4V?
The FS350M runs a closed loop: a sealed supply tank feeds under inert atmosphere, front glove boxes allow breakout, one shared container covers loading, unloading and sieving, and a vibration sieve returns refreshed powder to supply. Reactive alloys stay under argon or nitrogen throughout, and a full chamber purge takes 11 minutes. For collection outside the machine we supply inert vacuums rated for reactive metal powder.
What build rate can we expect in practice?
Scanning runs at up to 32.8 ft/s / 10 m/s with recoating at 400 mm/s, which puts a layer at roughly 8 seconds. Real throughput on the FS350M depends on how well the plate is nested and how many lasers stay busy, which is exactly why laser count is a part-mix decision. Rather than quote a headline number, we will print a paid benchmark part and hand you the measured build time and cost per part for your geometry.
Can we test the machine before committing?
Yes. Send an STL and we print a paid benchmark part in California on an FS350M-class system, then hand over the part together with the parameter set and a cost-per-part breakdown. There is no free sample, but there is no obligation either, and a capability call with an applications engineer costs nothing.
