Case Study: Stevens Institute of Technology advances bioprinting research with Raise3D

Stevens Institute of Technology prints functional bioprinter parts with Raise3D Pro3

Stevens Institute of Technology faced the challenge of replicating the speed and flexibility of 3D printing for working with sensitive biomaterials, with the goal of fabricating original models using living tissues. Their existing equipment resulted in non-functional parts due to warping and poor tolerances. They utilized a Raise3D Pro3 printer from vendor Raise3D to overcome these technical and budget constraints.

The solution implemented by Raise3D enabled the team to 3D print a custom extrusion head, which was then integrated with lab-grade components to create a functional, low-cost bioprinter. This allowed them to successfully print tissues with multiple cell types in a single process. The results advanced their research into tissue engineering and regenerative medicine, facilitating collaborations with medical professionals to model miniature placentas for disease study. Raise3D's technology was instrumental in prototyping viable solutions for real-world medical applications.
