Lab's Three Bambu Printers Now Run Flat-Out As DNA Barcoding Scales to Thousands of Samples
generativist · x · 2026-09-05
Chris Anderson shares a BioKEA lab update: three Bambu 3D printers are running flat-out printing bug-sorting prototypes, field collection gear parts, and everyday lab tools for DNA barcoding.
From "one is enough" to "who's hogging the third?" in about a week — the team is ramping production DNA barcoding to hundreds, soon thousands, of specimens a day.
