Farsoon and Siemens enhance strategic partnership for industrial 3D printing


Farsoon Technologies Has announced that it has strengthened its strategic partnership Siemens Ltd. The partnership started in 2019, when the companies entered into a collaboration agreement for the establishment of a framework to support industrial additive manufacturing. In May 2023 the companies will gather at Farsoon headquarters to strengthen the agreement.

Teams from the two companies took part in a factory visit at Farsoon. Jack Cheng, Farsoon Board Member & Deputy General Manager and Don Xu, Farsoon Board Member & Global Business Group Director led the tour and showcased Farsoon’s latest additive manufacturing machine solutions, targeting large-scale series production.

Dr. Karsten Huser, Vice President at Siemens Additive Manufacturing, discussed with the Farsoon group topics on pushing boundaries in the industry during the follow-up meeting.

According to Farsoon the topics that were highlighted at the meeting included:

  • Siemens and Farsoon R&D team will continue the Siemens NX software integration on Farsoon’s metal and plastic open platform AM systems to offer end-to-end machine-software solution targeting production-scale application projects. 
  • Both parties will enhance the application of Siemens automation and drive solutions in Farsoon AM machines with Siemens solutions given priority consideration when selecting for Farsoon’s future machine development and production.
  • Siemens will offer Farsoon 3D printing users with high-performance and streamlined “design-to-manufacture” factory automation solutions with their expertise in industrial digital manufacturing. 
  • Siemens Financial Services can provide Farsoon users with creative buying solutions tailored to their budgets, allowing them to easily access the latest technology and future success. 
  • With a comprehensive AM technology know-how, Farsoon is open to work with Siemens for unique machine solutions and configurations to best suit Siemens’ application needs in aerospace, healthcare, automotive and industry manufacturing.
