I started i-SOLIDS in 2016 as a side hustle from my apartment. What began as a hobby with a couple of 3D printers quickly became my full-time job. Today, we run over 140 printers, with room to scale beyond 400 in our new 20,000 sq ft facility.

Among them are 64 units of Flashforge Creator Pro, most running nearly non-stop for over six years. While we've added newer devices over time, it remains a cornerstone of our operations, known for its reliability, long-term support, and strong ROI.

We're expanding our multi-color FDM capabilities with two Flashforge AD5X printers, exploring cost-effective ways to meet rising demand—without costly powder-based systems. Flashforge's reliable hardware and support make it easy to scale sustainably without sacrificing quality.

I launched the 3D print business - Jinqi Toys in May 2023 with just $7,000. In the beginning, I was buying whatever printers were trending—just trying to keep up. But as overseas orders started pouring in, I quickly realized we needed serious, scalable machines.

Today, we run 4,000 printers, including 1,000 Flashforge Adventurer 5Ms, and produce 50,000 toy sets every day—and we’re still behind on demand. The AD5M has been a game-changer. It’s fast, stable, and incredibly efficient. One worker can manage 500 printers thanks to group control. We even had two major power outages—while other brands failed, over 90% of our AD5M prints resumed flawlessly. That alone saved us thousands. We’ve tested dozens of machines, but when it comes to ROI, reliability, and scale, the Adventurer 5M stands out. That’s why we keep growing with it.
