Powered by CELLINK’s cutting-edge technology and harnessing 405 nm visible light, generation 3 of the LUMEN X™ brings a new degree of precision and utility to the light-based bioprinter space.
Years of listening to customers’ needs and feedback have culminated in LUMEN X, packed with an array of new features and simplified workflows. Enabling greater results and allowing researchers across the world to create the future of health.
The material
The LUMEN X is optimized to build solid hydrogel structure by beginning with a droplet of light-sensitive, liquid PhotoInk™ hydrogels in a vat. Learn more about available biomaterials further down.
The printing
An industrial blue-light projector exposes a series of images onto the vat, like a slideshow. The areas of the droplet that are exposed will crosslink and solidify into a single layer. The build platform moves up to allow each layer to stack and build the part.
