Abstract
Three-dimensional bioprinting holds great promise for tissue engineering, but struggles with fabricating complex curved geometries such as vascular networks. Though precise, traditional Cartesian bioprinters are constrained by linear layer-by-layer deposition along fixed axes, resulting in limitations such as the stair-step effect. Multi-axis robotic bioprinting addresses these challenges by allowing dynamic nozzle orientation and motion along curvilinear paths, enabling conformal printing on anatomically relevant surfaces. Although robotic arms offer lower mechanical precision than CNC stages, accuracy can be enhanced through methods such as vision-based toolpath correction. This study presents a modular multi-axis robotic embedded bioprinting platform that integrates a six-degrees-of-freedom robotic arm, a pneumatic extrusion system, and a viscoplastic support bath. A streamlined workflow combines CAD modeling, CAM slicing, robotic simulation, and automated execution for efficient fabrication. Two case studies validate the system's ability to print freeform surfaces and vascular-inspired tubular constructs with high fidelity. The results highlight the platform's versatility and potential for complex tissue fabrication and future in situ bioprinting applications.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
