    3D printing has been applied to moldmaking largely for the sake of better-performing molds made from metal (which tend to be costly) and for quick-turn prototype tools made from polymers (which lack longevity). But at the recent PTXPO 2025, there was another 3D printed tooling solution on display: ceramic tools, offering a more affordable option than metal and a more durable one than straight polymer.

    Directed energy deposition (DED) in metals is most often associated with large, bulky parts where 3D printing can provide a faster, more material efficient way of producing near-net shape parts. But with the right machine and motion capabilities, DED can also deliver precision parts such as these slender tubes.

    At additive manufacturing service provider DI Labs, AM for production has already arrived. Owned and operated by engineers and brothers Carl, Brian and Sean Douglass, the company has been succeeding at part production through polymer 3D printing for the last several years. Over 85% of the work underway at its facility in Willmar, Minnesota, is production for medical devices, consumer goods, defense parts and automotive components.

But this run of parts was not for production — DI Labs produced thousands of prototypes in 10 different designs to help dial in exactly the right product for the customer.

    When Tangible Solutions launched just over a decade ago, the founders anticipated that there would be demand for additive manufactured spine implants largely for their design possibilities. Design is still a driver for adoption (including engineered surface roughness as shown here in nTop) but these days, Marle Tangible is much more likely to win based on cost.
