total of 12 systems were delivered over the year, compared with 13
in 2023.
Revenues for services and accessories came to
€10.2m, virtually unchanged from 2023.

increases after factoring in the two orders announced in January
2025 for a production system in Europe and a research system in the

Orders for services and accessories amounted to
€5.0m.
