Abstract
Next generation development of tissue engineering scaffolds increasingly leverages the ability of additive manufacturing methods in order to generate highly complex designs that can be customized to unique conditions found in the patient. Specifically, the development of integrated manufacturing methods, whereby multiple additive processes are utilized in conjunction with one another represent a potentially novel solution for how to create bio-mimetic scaffolds that can replicate natural tissue structures. In this paper, we discuss the development of a novel integrative manufacturing platform that aims to create next generation scaffolds for tissue engineering. Specifically, we discuss the overall design of the platform and our creation of a real-time calibration scheme that corrects for error during our manufacturing process.
