Article Synopsis
  • Research on multicellular spheroids like microtissues and organoids highlights their potential in tissue engineering due to enhanced interactions in 3D cell structures.
  • A new laser-assisted bioprinting technique has been developed that successfully transfers these spheroids to create larger tissue structures, demonstrating high cell viability and differentiation capability.
  • The method includes an innovative approach called LIPMO, allowing for the bioprinting of larger spheroids (up to 300 micrometers) while utilizing automated image analysis for precise selection and placement of multiple spheroids in a single printing sequence.

Powder bed fusion-laser beam (PBF-LB), a prevalent and rapidly advancing additive manufacturing (AM) technology nowadays, serves the industry by producing thin, complex, and lightweight components for various sectors, including healthcare, automotive, defence, and aerospace. However, this technology encounters challenges related to the construction of critical parts and the high overall process costs. Equally significant is the role of support structures in metal laser powder bed fusion (PBF-LB/M).
