Hi Everyone, I'm building a bioprinter for cell deposition using reprap as a launch point. Is it possible to use a heated build platform sold for ABS printing which gets very hot and maintain a lower, physiologic temperature around 37C (98.6F)? https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,361908,361908#msg-361908 Fri, 06 Mar 2026 05:58:52 -0500 Phorum 5.2.23 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,361908,362123#msg-362123 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,361908,362123#msg-362123 https://github.com/ErikZalm/Marlin/blob/Marlin_v1/Marlin/Configuration.h#L223

I think you'll need some reduction to make the heating response curve match the cooling response curve better around 37C so that the PID controller isn't adversely affected by the asymmetry. IOW, if it takes 180 seconds to cool from 37C to 30C, then the heating should be similarly slow.]]> DaveX Reprappers Thu, 29 May 2014 10:00:19 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,361908,362050#msg-362050 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,361908,362050#msg-362050 vreihen Reprappers Thu, 29 May 2014 07:07:23 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,361908,361936#msg-361936 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,361908,361936#msg-361936 machapa Reprappers Wed, 28 May 2014 22:07:17 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,361908,361908#msg-361908 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,361908,361908#msg-361908
