DN Solutions (formerly Doosan) is the latest newcomer to join the metal 3D printing segment. Acknowledged for its expertise in manufacturing a wide range of machine tools, the Korean manufacturer takes its first steps in the AM market at Emo Hannover.
The company will be introducing the new DLX series based on LPBF technology. The company aims to close the missing end-to-end link between LPBF and CNC processes. Through the systematic integration of software, automation and component handling, DN Solutions provides solutions for the entire production chain.
To do so, the manufacturer targets applications where conventional manufacturing processes have shown their limitations.
The DLX 450D flagship solution
Suitable for 24/7 production, the high-performance 3D printer offers an exchangeable build container to minimize non-productive time, a multi-laser system for high printing speed, and a build volume of 450 × 450 × 450 mm.
DN Solutions successfully tested the technology: It additively redesigned the front cap of a spindle cylinder and was able to achieve a 20 percent increase in performance while simplifying assembly thanks to component integration.
“In our view, there is no alternative to additive manufacturing for companies that want to produce competitively. It offers opportunities to produce complex metal components that could not be realized otherwise,” says Vino Suntharakumaran, Vice President Additive Manufacturing, DN Solutions. “It was therefore a logical step for as a holistic solution provider to include this technology in our portfolio. The mandatory mechanical post-processing allows us to utilize synergies of already established technologies such as five-axis simultaneous machining and automation solutions. In addition to these solutions, we complete the 360° offering with software, services and support. This ranges from consulting on what to print and how to design for additive, to training and ramp-up support during production, directly on site.”
DN Solutions also provides support along the additive process chain with its in-house AM software suite – from the initial idea to the design and the successful production of the component. The integrated approach of hardware and software is particularly helpful for companies that want to get into additive metalworking or expand their production. In future, customers will receive support at the Additive Solution Center in Gütersloh, which will open in 2026.
