[March 11, 2019], [Neptune, NJ] – Lab Owl™, an Automated Control Concepts (ACC) company, is part of a new public-private Manufacturing USA initiative, the Advanced Regenerative Manufacturing Institute (ARMI). Headquartered in Manchester, New Hampshire, ARMI is the 12th Manufacturing USA Institute which will receive more than $300 million in public-private investment from leading manufacturers, universities, nonprofit organizations and the federal government to develop scalable manufacturing processes for engineered tissues and organs.

As a partner in ARMI, Lab Owl™ will collaborate with the over 100 member organizations to help advance the development of next-generation cell culture and fermentation applications. Lab Owl™ will apply their expertise in advanced automation and control systems to regenerative manufacturing, which currently uses very manual production processes, to improve the efficiency and scalability of manufacturing in this emerging field. Lab Owl™ brings a unique set of capabilities to make practical the large-scale manufacturing of engineered tissues and tissue-related technologies.

“We are eager to bring our expertise in creating process automation solutions for life science companies’ development and manufacturing operations to the ARMI community,” said Michael Blechman, CEO, Lab Owl & ACC, adding, “Given the early stage of the regenerative manufacturing and the tissue-engineering industry, the flexible and scalable bioreactor controls and automation systems that Lab Owl delivers is a great match for the innovative, startup companies and programs that will be working to advance many new technologies under this initiative.”

As part of continuing efforts to help revitalize American manufacturing and incentivize companies to invest in new technology development in the United States, ARMI will lead the BioFabUSA program on behalf of the Department of Defense. ARMI will work to integrate and organize the fragmented collection of industry practices and domestic capabilities in tissue Biofabrication technology to better position the US relative to global competition. ARMI will also focus on accelerating regenerative tissue research and creating state-of-the-art manufacturing innovations in biomaterial and cell processing for critical Department of Defense and civilian needs.

“We need to develop 21st century tools for engineered tissue manufacturing that will allow these innovations to be widely available – similar to how a 15th century tool (the printing press) allowed knowledge to spread widely during the Renaissance,” said inventor Dean Kamen, Chairman of ARMI.

Under the umbrella of Manufacturing USA, a public-private network that invests in the development of world-leading manufacturing technologies, approximately $80 million from the federal government will be combined with more than $300 million in cost share to support the development of tissue and organ manufacturing capabilities.

ARMI’s efforts are supported by industrial, government and nonprofit partners. The ARMI partnership continues to grow and welcomes Lab Owl™ as one of its newest members.
