How much does the Farsoon FS191M cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Farsoon FS191M that we can stand behind, so we show no number. Configuration, options and installation move the final price a long way: a quote is the reliable figure.
Overview
With one 500W fiber laser and an effective build size of Φ191×220 mm (Φ7.52×8.66 in), the Farsoon FS191M is a compact metal additive manufacturing machine sized for development work and small parts rather than volume production. It stands 1100×800×2000 mm (43.3×31.5×78.7 in) and weighs approx. 600 kg (1322.8 lb), a different installation class from the FS273M at approx. 3300 kg (7275.3 lb).
The standard build cylinder is Φ195×220 mm (Φ7.68×8.66 in). Two reduced platforms are listed beside it: an optional R&D platform of Φ80×100mm, with Φ78×100mm effective, and a high-temperature platform of Φ80×90mm, with Φ78×90mm effective. A small platform lets a new alloy be trialled with a small charge of material instead of a full cylinder, so it is the item to ask about if parameter development is the main job.
The laser row gives two versions, both 1×500W: a plain fiber laser and one labelled Beam Shaping. Layer thickness runs from 0.02mm to 0.1mm (0.0008-0.0039 in) and scanning speed is max. 10m/s (32.8 ft/s) through F theta lenses. A single beam keeps the optics simple, with no overlap between lasers to calibrate. It also means build time cannot be cut by adding lasers, so the machine suits parts that sit comfortably inside the cylinder rather than plates packed edge to edge.
The services follow from the size. Supply for Europe and China is 220V±10%, 1~/N/PE, 50Hz at 30A, and a transformer is sold with the machine for the US. Inert gas, argon or nitrogen, is consumed at 1-5 L / min. The room must sit at 22-28°C (71.6-82.4℉).
Listed materials are Ti6Al4V, AlSi10Mg and CoCrMo, plus 316L, Maraging Steel Grade 300, CuSn10, W and Ta, each of which carries an asterisk the table does not explain. Software is BuildStar and MakeStar on 64 bit Windows 10.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Compact installation: 1100×800×2000 mm (43.3×31.5×78.7 in) and approx. 600 kg (1322.8 lb)
- Optional R&D platform of Φ80×100mm (Φ78×100mm effective) for trials with a small charge of material
- A high-temperature platform of Φ80×90mm (Φ78×90mm effective) is listed alongside the standard cylinder
- Runs from a 220V±10%, 1~/N/PE, 50Hz, 30A supply and uses only 1-5 L / min of inert gas
- The 1×500W fiber laser is listed in a plain version and a Beam Shaping version
Limitations
- The effective build size is Φ191×220 mm (Φ7.52×8.66 in), so anything wider or taller has to go to a larger machine
- One 500W laser only; the table offers no multi-laser or higher-power version
- 316L, Maraging Steel Grade 300, CuSn10, W and Ta are listed with an unexplained asterisk and need confirming
- The R&D platform is an option, and its build height drops to 100mm

Frequently Asked Questions
01
The effective build size is Φ191×220 mm (Φ7.52×8.66 in) inside a build cylinder of Φ195×220 mm (Φ7.68×8.66 in). The bed is round, so a rectangular part has to fit inside the 191 mm circle, corner to corner.
02
They are smaller build platforms listed with the standard cylinder. The optional R&D platform is Φ80×100mm with an effective size of Φ78×100mm. The high-temperature platform is Φ80×90mm with an effective size of Φ78×90mm. The table gives their sizes only; it does not state the temperature the high-temperature platform reaches, so ask Farsoon for that figure.
03
A single fiber laser of 500W. The table lists it twice, once as a plain 1×500W fiber laser and once as 1×500W with Beam Shaping. Scanning speed is max. 10m/s (32.8 ft/s) through F theta lenses, and layer thickness is 0.02mm~0.1mm (0.0008-0.0039 in).
04
A 220V±10%, 1~/N/PE, 50Hz, 30A supply in Europe and China; for the US a transformer is sold with the machine. Argon or nitrogen at 1-5 L / min. An ambient temperature of 22-28°C (71.6-82.4℉). The machine measures 1100×800×2000 mm (43.3×31.5×78.7 in) and weighs approx. 600 kg (1322.8 lb).
05
Ti6Al4V, AlSi10Mg and CoCrMo are listed without qualification. 316L, Maraging Steel Grade 300, CuSn10, W and Ta are listed with an asterisk whose meaning the table does not give. Farsoon adds that more materials are to come.
