India’s pioneering metal additive manufacturing company, Intech Additive Solutions, has announced a major strategic partnership and equity investment agreement with South Korea’s leading machine tool manufacturer, DN Solutions, on March 27.
A Strategic Alliance Between Industry Leaders
As India’s foremost provider of metal 3D printing equipment and integrated solutions, Intech Additive Solutions is known for its end-to-end 360-degree offering that encompasses machine design and manufacturing, process development, software, and support—all digitally enabled to drive next-generation manufacturing.
The partnership marks a significant milestone for Intech, positioning the company on a global growth trajectory and strengthening its technological and commercial footprint. Through this alliance, Intech will bring its deep expertise in Laser Powder Bed Fusion (LPBF)—the most prevalent and advanced technology in metal additive manufacturing—to DN Solutions’ portfolio, complementing their strengths in metal cutting and machining.
Intech Additive – Driving Adoption of LPBF Technology
LPBF, which accounts for roughly 80% of the metal additive market, enables the production of high-performance, complex parts by melting thin layers of metal powder using a laser. With industry projections estimating the LPBF equipment market to surge from $1.2 billion in 2022 to $3.9 billion by 2027, Intech is strategically placed at the forefront of this growth.
“Intech’s digitally driven 360-degree additive manufacturing solution goes well beyond current industry benchmarks,” said Sridhar Balaram, Founding CEO of Intech Additive Solutions. “This partnership with DN Solutions will help accelerate global adoption of metal AM by delivering integrated solutions that combine the best of additive and subtractive manufacturing.”
DN Solutions CEO Kim Won-jong echoed the sentiment, stating that the collaboration would enable the company to deliver holistic manufacturing solutions to sectors like aerospace, automotive, medical, electronics, and semiconductors—industries that demand intricate geometries, lightweighting, and superior material performance.
By aligning forces, Intech Additive Solutions and DN Solutions are set to redefine advanced manufacturing paradigms and drive the broader industrial adoption of metal 3D printing worldwide.
