SRC will serve as the exclusive authorized reseller of Orion AM systems in Canada, bringing dedicated local technical, commercial, and support expertise directly to our North American partners and customers.

A Partnership of Technical Expertise

For three decades, SRC has supplied leading-edge technology to the scientific community in Canada, including instrumentation for applications in additive manufacturing, surface science, materials characterization, spectroscopy and imaging.
