This fine resolution enables the creation of intricately structured sculptures as tiny as a grain of sand.

In just 4 minutes it can print 100 layers consisting of 200 lines per layer.

That translates into five meters of polymer printed in one second.

In two-photon lithography, this is a actually a world record.

At the TU Vienna, scientists are now developing biocompatible resins for medical applications.

The 3d printer could also be used to create tailor made construction parts for biomedical technology or nanotechnology.
