Farsoon Europe GmbH and Stark Future proudly announce the completion of the KLINGA Project, a collaborative engineering initiative that produced more than 1,000 high-quality titanium parts using Farsoon’s industrial metal AM systems. Designed as both a test bench and engineering tribute, the project highlights Stark Future’s innovative spirit and Farsoon’s capability to deliver repeatable production with precision, quality assurance, and cost-efficiency.

The KLINGA Sabre—an engineering sculpture inspired by Stark Future’s electric motocross bike VARG—was not simply designed for form, but as a benchmark of what modern additive manufacturing can achieve. Featuring sharp angles, complex geometries, and a functional titanium moose-head bottle opener, KLINGA was built to push the boundaries of titanium 3D printing.

The sabre project encompassed full-scale validation of the AM process including:

– Process parameter development for titanium
– Design for Additive Manufacturing (DfAM)
– Support reduction and build strategy
– Adaptive layer thickness based on part height
– Repeatability and scalability of serial production
– Post-processing and part quality assurance

The parts were printed on Farsoon’s FS811M platform, demonstrating the system’s ability to manufacture sharp-angled, complex titanium components with repeatable results. Notably, the same production quality and workflow can be replicated on the FS721M platform currently operated by Stark Future.

In a single 248-hour build, 188 KLINGA sabres were produced with an average build time of under 80 minutes per unit. The real breakthrough lies in the combination of engineering creativity and industrial performance—demonstrating Farsoon’s capabilities for consistent quality control, cost-efficient operation, and production readiness.

Quote from Stark Future:

“The KLINGA Project was a bold way for us to push boundaries—not just in design, but in manufacturing,” says Benjamin Cobb, Director Brand Communications at Stark Future. “Partnering with Farsoon allowed us to turn an ambitious idea into a titanium reality. It’s proof that large-scale, high-precision metal additive manufacturing is ready for serial production. It also validated our belief that 3D printing can deliver performance, quality, and sustainability—all at once.”

Quote from Farsoon Europe:

“The KLINGA Project is a great example of our collaboration with a visionary customer,” says Oliver Huizhi Li, Managing Director of Farsoon Europe. “From sharp-edged part design to titanium process optimization, this project reflects what’s possible when engineering ambition meets scalable AM technology. The quality results and process stability achieved in KLINGA reflect Farsoon’s commitment to delivering reliable machines, cost-per-part efficiency, and excellent service.”
