Readily3D Volumetric Bio-printer

Readily3D Tomolite leverages our contactless tomographic illumination technology to shape sensitive cells and biomaterials into biological systems, without impairing their viability. Volumetric printing not only preserves cells but also makes research more efficient by simplifying design iterations and statistical studies.

 

Various Tomolite configurations are available for your specific application needs.

More About This Item

Fast                                    Centimeter-scale structures are fabricated within a few tens of seconds, making both design iterations and statistical studies straightforward.

Cell-friendly                   With our ultrafast printing process, cells spend very little time outside of an incubator. The low photoinitiator contents also considerably limits cytoxicity.

Contamination-free   Sensitive cells and biomaterials are shaped without contact through sealed glass vials, which can be sterilized in an autoclave.

Optical resolution        Our optical approach can define three-dimensional light dose distributions with a resolution below 100 µm, regardless of print size.

Easy to use                    Our software Apparite directly imports STL files of the construct and gives full control over object and print parameters.

Design freedom         Go beyond simple grids. Thick or thin, hollow or overhanging, complex organic shapes are printed easily with Tomolite.
