The keynote speakers shared their thoughts on the development of additive technology, highlighted some key applications and touched on current research projects.
In addition to the conference sessions, delegates were invited on a tour of the Farsoon campus. This tour took them through the company’s brand-new showroom, into an application centre where parts being produced in a variety of sectors were showcased, and then to a material testing lab and machine production facility. The 200+ guests became the first to publicly view the FS301M metal laser system which was announced earlier this month and will be unveiled to a wider audience at the upcoming Formnext show.
Farsoon will exhibit from Hall 11.1 Stand C 69 at Formnext between November 19-22.
