DN Solutions, which happens to be the world’s third-largest and South Korea’s largest manufacturer of machine tools, celebrated the opening of its first Additive Solutions Centre in Europe on April 9, 2026, in Gütersloh.
DN Solutions is indeed taking a big step forward in its strategic focus on additive manufacturing technologies because of the opening of this new research and development centre. From now on, the facility will be the company’s global additive business headquarters. Combining 3D printing as well as CNC – computer numerical control technology closely makes production processes more efficient and also accelerates the development of new manufacturing processes for customers and partners.
Facilities and services provided by the centre
The ASC in Gütersloh is the global control centre for all AM-related issues at DN Solutions. This is where projects from businesses in Europe, Africa, and the Middle East are run. There is a 1,000 m² area that shows how additive manufacturing and CNC technology work together. DN Solutions helps businesses get started with or grow additive manufacturing at its new location by offering training courses and live presentations as well as the execution of turnkey projects. Customers get a full picture of how
additive manufacturing can be used in industry and how it can be added to current manufacturing settings.
The range also includes CNC turning centres, milling machines, 5-axis simultaneous machining centres, and turning/milling centres, along with automation solutions, in addition to the DLX series for additive manufacturing. The ASC in Gütersloh now has some DN Solutions machines on display. They are used to machining AM components and include the DLX150, DLX450, DNX2100, DVF5000, Lynx2600, and DNM5700.
People who work for DN Solutions in Gütersloh have an average of over twelve years of experience in additive manufacturing. It is made up of proven experts who know the market, customer needs, and technologies very well. They have also worked with customers from all over the world. One can research, test, and put into action hybrid processes that combine additive and machining processes thanks to close communication with sites in Korea and the US and synergies with local CNC product experts.
Focus on additive manufacturing
For DN Solutions, additive manufacturing is a big part of its long-term corporate plan. The technology makes it possible to make complex shapes and internal structures with a lot of material efficiency. This is very important in industries that are growing around the world, like aerospace and medical technology, as well as semiconductors. DN Solutions helps its customers from the first layer of powder to the finished part that is ready to use. It does this by using both additive – AM and subtractive – CNC processes. This AM2CNC method makes work more productive, causing solutions that are perfect for each market need.
Gütersloh as a hub for industry
Gütersloh is an ideal place for DN Solutions to be based because it has a strong industrial base and is conveniently located on the A2 motorway.
Miele and Bertelsmann are two well-known companies that are based in the city. Its proximity to major supply chains, well-known schools, and partners like Beckhoff encourages growth, service, and quick entry into the market. It’s easy to get to all the other European countries from this central location.
DN Solutions is making Germany a stronger technology centre within the DN Solutions Group by opening the first Additive Solutions Centre in Europe. This is after the company bought the German machine tool maker Heller.
Integration and International Cooperation
The Additive Solutions Centre Europe is very important to DN Solutions’ strategic direction. The technology centre in Gütersloh is one of three that DN Solutions has in the most important business areas at present. There are also centres in Chicago, USA, as well as Changwon, Korea. Networking with people from other countries lets one share knowledge and technologies, which helps create better solutions. DN Solutions is setting new standards for how efficient and flexible machine tools can be by continuing to improve additive manufacturing.
