This is a CNC control program, created during my summer internship with SE3D. The program receives user input and interpolates the data into G-Code compatible with SE3D's r3bEL X and r3bEL mini bioprinters. Use with other 3D printers is possible, but extrusion should only take place on appropriately sized petri dishes (at least 100mm), or the Greiner 650161 96-Well Microplate.
