    NOTE: Make sure the supplied air pressure does not exceed the admissible range of 4 bars (400 kPa). PERSONNEL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT Always wear protective glasses and secure the environments of the instrument to other personnel while operating the INKREDIBLE. All laser safety equipment, including laser safety glasses, must be adapted to the installed UV curing kit.

Turn on the air compressor and regulate the air pressure to 400 KPa. Note: Air compressor should be connected to a separate socket (not in the same fuse) to avoid any electromagnetic interference with the INKREDIBLE Bioprinter.
  • Page 18 -Turn the Control Knob Wheel [5] until the Ph 1 needle is right above the petri dish or well plate well. A little space of about 0.1mm should be visible between the print bed and the needle tip. You can use a piece of paper to slide between the needle and the petri dish to measure the distance.

    BIOPRINTING WITH CELLINK SOFTWARE (REPETIER HOST) INTRODUCTION TO G-CODE PROGRAMMING The special M codes for INKREDIBLE 3D Bioprinter M712 to M732 are used to set the offset between the printheads printhead 1 and 2 are the syringes and printhead 3 is the led.
  • Page 21: Cleaning And Maintenance

    CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE The INKREDIBLE 3D Bioprinter is coated with a chemical resistant coating. It can be sprayed with chlorine or ethanol in order to sterilize the surface. It is advised to lubricate the axis once in a month to ensure a good functioning of the 3D bioprinter.
  • Page 22 Once a return is received (for example a returned bioprinter), CELLINK will then send back a new unit. CELLINK will pay to send out the bioprinter and parts to correct a problem, but will not be responsible for return costs. Proper packaging is required in the rare case of a returned product or part, and the product itself must arrive back in the condition in which it was originally received.
