Description
This is a state-of-the-art bio additive manufacturing system that addresses the major current barriers for multi-material printing at multiple scale levels.
The BioFactory™ is a versatile and cell friendly three-dimensional manufacturing instrument allowing scientists to pattern cells, bio-molecules and a range of soft and rigid materials in desirable 3D composite structures, mimicking natural environments.
- Up to 8 printheads
- Printhead technology convergence
- Customisation to user process
Uses / Applications
The system integrates multiple printing heads allowing for operation with up to three different materials (cell-friendly ink-jet, polymer extrusion, hydrogel dispensing) and an additional electrospinning printhead for micro and sub-micrometer manufacturing.
