When applied to the patient\u2019s skin, it forms an autograft that will, within a couple of weeks, create new skin. The BioAssemblyBot is capable of both additive and contour 3D printing, as well as pick and place and assembly thanks to its interchangeable tools. It\u2019s only one of 3D.fab\u2019s bioprinting technologies; the platform has a few other bioprinters in development as well, including another skin printer.<\/p>\n<p><!-- Link: <a href=\"https:\/\/3dprint.com\/230675\/3d-fab-opens-up-new-possibilities-for-medical-3d-printing\/\">https:\/\/3dprint.com\/230675\/3d-fab-opens-up-new-possibilities...-printing\/<\/a> --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>3D bioprinting continues to diversify as more and more companies and research organizations join the field, each bringing their own take on the technology to the table.
