Results
BioCloneBot
One of the clearest recent open-hardware liquid-handling robots with a full paper + accessible full text.
Commit: Digital Pipette
Open hardware for accurate liquid transfer in self-driving labs; reports accuracy within ISO 8655-2 permissible error.
FINDUS
Strong open-source workstation reference with reported pipetting error metrics; useful comparator to OTTO/digital pipette.
Low-cost near-field electrospinning (NFES) system
easy to operate; reproducibility (limitation of traditional custom-build systems); for precise, programmable nanofiber patterning
MEWron
Extends open-source melt electrowriting beyond low-melting polymers such as PCL to nylon-12, producing well-defined fibres 33–95 µm in diameter on flat and tubular collectors.
Microextrusion bioprinter
Shows extreme cost-reduction approach; practical for access/democratization discussions.
Microextrusion-based bioprinting printhead
Shows an open printhead design path for lowering barriers to microextrusion bioprinting.
Nydus One Syringe Extruder (NOSE)
Often referenced for syringe-based extrusion designs; adjacent to extrusion bioprinting toolchains.
OpenLH
Uses a commercial robotic arm + modified pipette + block-based programming; relevant example of robot-arm liquid handling. | Early ‘open liquid handling’ system description; may provide useful design patterns + references.
OpenWorkstation
Useful ‘platform’ paper for building modular open lab automation setups beyond a single device.
OTTO
Not a bioprinter, but relevant open automation tool for biofabrication/bioprinting workflows. | Canonical open-source liquid handling robot paper; good baseline against newer modular tools like digital pipette.
Personal Pipetting Robot
Shows open hardware that integrates pipetting + incubation + imaging, closer to ‘robot-compatible’ liquid handling.
Printess
Adjacent platform for living-material printing; include if you want broader DIW-living-materials tooling.
PyLabRobot
Not hardware itself, but critical open control layer for heterogeneous open liquid-handling setups.
Replistruder 4
Directly comparable to Replistruder—an open syringe/extrusion tool that enables better bioink handling.
Sidekick
HardwareX often includes complete design files + BOM; strong ‘open hardware’ fit.
The ‘bIUreactor’
May be useful adjacent open tooling for 3D tissue workflows; include or exclude based on strictness.
The Enderstruder
Direct Replistruder-like tool: low-cost syringe extruder with shared profiles and OSHW metadata.
