Pushing the boundaries of melt electrowriting by developing novel scaffolds and feedback-driven software

[Brenna Devlin @BLeeDevlin]

@fisch_philipp @ISBioFab As with all new apps we expect some teething issues, but we are committed to providing regular updates and taking onboard feedback from users. Also, by releasing the source code we encourage users to create their own modifications or suggest new updates! 👍

[Brenna Devlin @BLeeDevlin]

Excited to share Melt ElectroCoder! This open-source software streamlines g-code generation for #MEW scaffold fabrication, making complex designs more accessible. Dive into advanced features for customisation and optimisation.

[Brenna Devlin @BLeeDevlin]

@fisch_philipp @ISBioFab Thanks Philipp! Absolutely, there is still much to do and certainly limitations to address. Incorporating more designs, refining the interface and ensuring a smooth workflow are priorities for us 😊

@lucia_g_brunel @ISBioFab Hi Lucia 👋 For a new material, printing box-structures, or straight lines, are a great way to go as you establish the printing parameters that work for your material and printer! Pressure, voltage and print speed can affect print quality, so I would optimise these first 😊

[Dr Naomi Paxton @NaomiCPaxton]

.@Dale_G_Neville & I are exploring in-SEM mechanical testing of microfiber #MEW scaffolds to investigate the influence of tissue maturity on scaffold mechanics. Here we present our validation data and pilot experiments with @BLeeDevlin's scaffolds.

@NaomiCPaxton @ISBioFab Thanks Naomi🌸For highly elastic tissue applications, I recommend sinusoidal or auxetic designs - our app also facilitates the creation of scaffolds with anisotropic properties, which enables directional mechanical characteristics that may enhance tissue-specific performance!

The #MEWron family grows with a (heated!) cylindrical collector that, when combined with filament delivery, processes nylon-12 into porous sheets/tubes. Built on the fabulous @Voron_Design, we show how high melting point polymers can be MEW-processed. https://t.co/MCcPNCRNRp
