Design-to-fabrication workflow

  1. Create a scaffold using ready-to-use geometry or a tailored shape
  2. Define subvolumes, materials and microstructural patterns
  3. Evaluate candidate architectures and plan printing trajectories
  4. Generate or edit G-code and inspect the toolpath before fabrication
