PrintAlloy® is our binder jet 3D metal printing platform engineered for rapid iteration and design testing. It produces high-density, precision parts with complex internal features and fine details. Ideal for testing MIM designs, PrintAlloy® supports fast-turn prototyping and short-run production using the same metal powders and sintering approach as MIM. When speed and flexibility matter, PrintAlloy® is your additive advantage.
ProtoMIM® delivers functional, fully dense MIM representative metal parts in weeks – not months. Built on the same MIM process used for production, ProtoMIM® allows for design validation, mechanical testing, and DFM insights without tooling delays. It’s the fastest way to move from prototype to production while minimizing risk and rework. Whether you’re refining a design or preparing for scale, ProtoMIM® accelerates development.
MIM is ideal for producing highly complex, tight-tolerance parts that are too intricate or cost-prohibitive to machine. The MIM process fuses fine metal powders with a polymer binder to form a moldable feedstock. This material is injected into a mold, then debound and sintered to achieve final density and mechanical properties. The result: precision components with excellent surface finish, and mechanical strength equivalent to wrought metals.
APP serves a wide range of industries that rely on metal injection molding for high-performance components. Our expertise in medical devices and mission-critical applications ensures that your parts meet the highest standards.
Precision surgical tools, drug delivery components, and diagnostic equipment
Complex geometries that boost efficiency and reduce weight
Durable, lightweight parts built for reliability
High-quality metal components that meet aesthetic and functional demands
Lightweight, high-strength parts for demanding environments
APP’s commitment to innovation was recognized with the Grand Prize in the Medical/Dental Category at the MPIF Design Excellence Awards. The awarded part featured highly complex, net-shaped geometry with internal features that could not be achieved through machining. By combining PrintAlloy® for prototyping with full-scale MIM production, APP delivered a cost-effective, high-quality solution that met the customer’s stringent medical device requirements.
This award-winning project reflects the full capability of our MIM Technology Platform—producing complex shapes with precision components that meet the most demanding performance standards.

“After countless hours working with a vendor on a part design for MIM moldability, they informed us midway through a project they didn’t want to take on new customers. So we contacted APP.
We have a great partnership with APP. Communication has been excellent and quality has been great. Most of all, their MIM powder size is correct for our size parts, leading to improved tolerance control and small features that have excellent definition.
APP is an excellent vendor to work with throughout the entire project. They are ISO-certified and focused on the highest level of quality, process control, and communication. Without hesitation, I would recommend APP for any MIM project.”
