byte 1

Multi-material bioprinting with inline characterization.

Control your bioink from cartridge to nozzle. Integrated sensors characterize material properties during printing, so you know how your bioink behaves throughout the process.

Up to 4 materials, 100 material compositions. No toolhead switching.: One nozzle
From cartridge to nozzle. 2 independent temperature zones, each from 4–50 °C.: Seamless water tempering
Material characterization so you know how your bioink behaves during printing.: In-print sensing
From tissue model preparation through in-print monitoring to data analysis.: Dedicated software

Print up to four materials through a single nozzle. In-head mixing enables 100 material compositions and gradients without switching toolheads.

Seamless water tempering from cartridge to nozzle, with two independently controlled temperature zones. Each zone can be set from 4–50 °C: one can run at 4 °C while the other runs at 50 °C.

Integrated sensors characterize material properties during printing, so you know how your bioink behaves in the actual process. Follow changes as they happen and review the data from the entire print.

Software designed specifically for the entire bioprinting process, from start to finish. Prepare your tissue model, monitor material behaviour during printing, and analyse the complete print dataset in the byte 1 workflow.

Software

Made for bioprinting: A custom interface built around tissue model preparation, printing, and analysis.
Your data stays local: Data is stored and processed locally, keeping it under your control.
Continuous data capture: An always-on background database saves experiment data to help prevent data loss.
Built on G-code: A familiar, flexible foundation for defining and running your prints.
Gradient SVG to multi-material G-code: The first software to turn gradient SVGs into multi-material G-code.
From digital tissue model to experiment data: A new approach that connects your tissue design with the data generated during printing.

Workflow

From Preparation to Analysis

byte 1 covers every step, from tissue model preparation to in-depth print analysis.

Design your tissue model

Create your digital model, choose the inks, and define requirements such as nozzle size and temperature.

Prepare the printer

Calibrate the printer, load your inks, and heat or cool it to the desired temperature.

Prepare your ink profiles

Use already characterized inks and load their profiles, or characterize your inks directly in the printer to create new profiles.

Load your model with ink profiles

Apply the characterized ink data to your digital model.

Print your tissue model.

Analyze in depth

Turn your print data into insight. Analyze material behavior, spot deviations, and check how your print performed as soon as it finishes, before incubation begins.
