Artists, creators, communities, and gamers have expressed substantial interest in non-fungible tokens (NFTs). However, scarce research has been conducted on applying this blockchain-based technology for industrial purposes. This paper develops a web application to use NFT technology for digital spare parts using digital manufacturing techniques, such as additive manufacturing. The research was conducted in collaboration with a deep-technology company using a physical product. This digital tool enabled the company to create the NFT of the products’ digital three-dimensional (3D) designs and facilitate the sale of the parts on the NFT marketplace while enhancing the design’s intellectual property rights protection due to the traceability of the NFTs on the blockchain. Action design research is used to describe the process of developing the NFT-based digital tool.
