Analyst reads Formlabs' $669 Form Studio 1 as a defensive move against Chinese rivals

A 3DPrint.com commentary argues that the $669 Form Studio 1 resin printer is a defensive "fireline" for Formlabs. The goal is to slow Chinese desktop makers such as Phrozen and Elegoo from moving up into Formlabs' territory. The author sees the larger prize in selling resins to the wider desktop market, and calls the coming year decisive for a possible IPO.
