Farsoon Technologies, headquartered in Changsha, Hunan Province, China, is planning to establish a metal Additive Manufacturing facility equipped with 1,600 of its own AM machines to produce components for customers. The proposed facility, representing an investment of RMB 2.356 billion (approximately $353 million), is expected to have an annual production capacity of 48 million metal parts once fully operational.

According to regulatory filings published on November 6, 2026, the company intends to install metal Laser Beam Powder Bed Fusion (PBF-LB) AM machines, primarily targeting the production of precision components for consumer electronics, electric vehicles, optical communications and robotics.

The facility is included in a revised share offering through which Farsoon plans to raise up to RMB 1.754 billion (approximately $263 million). Of this, RMB 1.513 billion (approximately $227 million) would be allocated to the new manufacturing facility, with the remaining RMB 241.4 million (approximately $36.2 million) supporting the expansion of its international operations.

Farsoon reports that it has already entered the supply chains of several major consumer electronics manufacturers and has begun supplying titanium alloy structural components for smartphones. The company has also received orders for further applications, although these remain at a relatively early stage.

The facility will be developed in three phases, with production scheduled to begin in 2029. Installation of all 1,600 machines is planned for completion by 2031, with the company expecting to reach full production capacity in 2033.

The revised financing proposal is significantly smaller than Farsoon’s original RMB 3.91 billion (approximately $586 million) fundraising plan. A separate RMB 1.075 billion (approximately $161 million) project to expand its manufacturing capacity for AM machines has been removed from the revised offering. Farsoon stated it intends to proceed with that investment using its own funds or alternative financing.

Farsoon also announced it plans to expand its international operations through facilities in Germany, the Czech Republic and Vietnam. The wider international programme represents an investment of RMB 478.4 million (approximately $71.7 million), with activities covering application development, technical validation, sales and customer support. A planned Singapore operation will be funded separately through the company’s own resources.
