Volumetric’s vats are lined with a proprietary silicone formula to enable gentle separation of cured PhotoInk™ layers while printing with the Lumen X.

Although designed to be disposable after each print, you can rinse your used vats with 70% IPA or ethanol for multiple prints. When printing larger objects, a fresh vat is highly recommended to optimize printability. We don’t recommend reusing vats if you embedded mammalian or bacterial cells in the PhotoInk™ because this can compromise the vat’s sterility and cleanliness. For best results, use a fresh vat after printing with PhotoInk™.

Available in sterile packaging for bioprinting with cells in a biological safety hood.
