Select Additive Technologies will represent the full range of Optomec's LENS additive manufacturing systems.

Metal additive manufacturing system supplier Optomec (Albuquerque, NM) has signed an agreement with Select Additive Technologies, a division of the Morris Group (Windsor, CT), making the full range of Optomec’s Laser Engineered Net Shaping (LENS) 3D Metal Printing systems accessible through one of the largest CNC machine tool distribution networks in North America.

Select Additive Technologies brings additive manufacturing solutions to market via the Morris Group-owned distribution network, which has established itself as a provider of longtime partnerships with several machine tools, tooling, accessories, and software brands.

The company will represent the full range of Optomec's LENS systems, which use high-power lasers to build structures layer by layer directly from powdered metals, alloys, ceramics, or composites. LENS systems enable companies to cost-effectively repair, rework, and manufacture fully dense, high-performance metal components with good mechanical and fatigue properties.
