Short description

Reqeust for supply and installation of a 3D Bioprinter for our laboratory whose research is focused on the fabrication of 3D regenerative biomaterial constructs.
The 3D Printer should be compatible with a range of bio-compatible and synthetic materials/bioinks. The temperature of the print shelf/bed should be adjustable. Multiple extruders/print heads required. Extruder temperature should be adjustable. High resolution printing in X, Y and Z directions is necessary for the fabrication of constructs with homogenous pores and internal channels with high dimensional accuracy. All hardware and software needed should be quoted as part of the system. The cost of freight, installation, maintenance, user training and any other additional expenses should also be included in the price quoted.
