The INKREDIBLE 3D bioprinter is a pneumatic-based extrusion bioprinter with dual
printheads and UV LED curing system for bioprinting of complex human tissue models
and organs for tissue engineering research. It is a cost-effective unit for innovators
to enter the 3D bioprinting field and start bioprinting living tissues at ease. It can be
used as a standalone unit thanks to its LCD controller or it can be monitored through
a computer with the use of the accompanied software. Your three-dimensional CAD
models are translated into coordinates and instructions for the INKREDIBLE to allow the
bioprinter to move according to a defined path. The bioprinting process works through
the extrusion of a bioink or hydrogel biomaterial combined with human cells in a bottom-
up, layer-by-layer fashion until a 3D construct is built. Once the construct has been
bioprinted, it is crosslinked using the UV LED curing system or ionic solutions, depending
on your bioink’s crosslinking requirements.
