The BIO MDX™ Series
Bioprinting systems for a scaled-up revolution.
The Next Generation of Bioprinters
The first of their kind, these two medical device crossover (MDX) bioprinters, the BIO MDX and the BIO MDX+ are optimized for high-throughput biofabrication with the latest technological advances onboard to facilitate scaling up your research with the utmost efficiency.
Industrial Scale Bioprinting
Fitting up to 27 microplates or 140 slides on printbeds and configured for bulk liquid dispensing, the BIO MDX Series is taking high-throughput bioprinting to unheard-of heights.
Bioprinting at Industrial Scale
With a printbed capacity of 27 microplates or 140 slides and bulk liquid dispensing the BIO MDX takes high throughput bioprinting to unseen heights.
All-in-one, Highly Reproducible Workflows
End-to-end biofabrication in one. The BIO MDX Series enables bioprinting, dosing and QC without interruption to easily automate complete bioprinting workflows. Up to 6 intelligent printheads, Integrated photocuring toolheads, bulk liquid dispensers and a positioning arm bring streamlined efficiency and precision printing to your work, reducing variability for highly reproducible results.
Total Control over Your Environment
Building on the patented Clean Chamber Technology, the BIO MDX Series offers uncompromised sterility with HEPA filters, chamber humidity, temperature and dew-point control. Users can also seamlessly control pressure and speed, as well as set printbed (-10°C to 80°C ) and printhead (0°C to 350°C) temperatures.
Total Control over Your Environment
Building on the patented Clean Chamber Technology, the BIO MDX Series offers uncompromised sterility with HEPA filters, chamber humidity, temperature and dew-point control. Users can also seamlessly control pressure and speed, as well as set printbed (-20°C to 120°C ) and printhead (4°C to 250°C) temperatures.
Unprecedented Precision with the BIO MDX+
The BIO MDX+ offers even more groundbreaking features, including giving researchers total control over spheroid and single-cell dispensing. Using the onboard software, researchers are able to deposit spheroids and single cells with unrivaled precision. This superior positioning accuracy brings us ever closer to totally recapitulating in vivo conditions in tissue models.
