Combine Pellets, Meltand Electrospinning for the most complete lab



NovaSpider
CIC NanoGune is a technology center located in San Sebastián. They are currently one of the world references in research and development of nanotechnology. In this sense, CIC NanoGune is part of the three international laboratories that are developing the new Quantum Chips for Intel’s revolutionary microprocessors.
Created by the multidisciplinary team of scientists and engineers at the CIC nanoGUNE Nanoscience Research Center, the Novaspider 3D printer enables the manufacture of nanofiber composite materials with various characteristics. With Novaspider we can also perform electrospinning processes to achieve all kinds of nanofibers.
NovaSpider, the device born from the union of two world leaders. Developed by CIC Nanogune and exclusively marketed by IT3D Group.

Capabilities of the Novaspider
nanofiber 3D Printer

Electrospinning from Dissolution
Obtaining nonwoven membranes from random nanofibers.

Melt Electrospinning Writing
Deposition control accurately to create predesigned structures.

Conventional Pellet 3D Printer
Manufacturing additive unlimited.
Electrospinning and Meltelectrospinning
finally meeting in the same device

3 in 1. The most complete nanofiber
3D printer on the market.
This Novaspider nanofiber 3D printer is the only one that combines 3D printing with the techniques of Dissolution Electrospinning and Melt Electrospinning Writing, to obtain fibrous structures of fluids and thermoplastic materials among others.
The electric field applied between the material in liquid state and the opposite collector, causes a continuous fiber of material to go to the collector, where it is deposited.
By combining the techniques of Electrospinning and Melt Electrospinning, layers can be inserted by controlling the disposition of one layer over another, eliminating the need to use multiple devices to manufacture the same sample.
Another of the unique features of the Novaspider 3D printer is the manufacture of membranes for applications related to extreme biosecurity, such as virus filtration.
Within the possibilities of the Novaspider 3D printer we also find the manufacture of scaffolding for tissue regeneration. Thanks to the combination of 3D printing techniques of pellets, Electrospinning and Melt Electrospinning it is possible to guide and stimulate the growth of bone and muscle tissues among others.
