 customer typically pays an hourly usage fee. Most of our leases have a 12-month term, though in certain cases the lease term is longer. The variable payments are recognized when the event determining the amount of variable consideration to be paid occurs. We shipped our first Sapphire system at the end of 2018 and we shipped our first Sapphire XC 1MZ system at the end of 2022, one year after the Sapphire XC launch at the end of 2021. The Sapphire XC 1MZ system has the same functionality of the Sapphire XC, but with a 1000 millimeter (one meter) build height versus the 550 millimeter (0.550 meter) build height of the Sapphire XC system. The Sapphire XC has capacity to make parts that are 400% larger and reduce production costs per part by approximately 65% to 80% when compared to the original Sapphire system. All of our Sapphire systems are manufactured in our 80,000+ square foot manufacturing facility in Fremont, California in the United States.
