FACE SHIELD PRINT-IN-PLACE V-1.6

large_preview_PPEFS_V-1.6_PRINT-IN-PLACE

Yet another even more simplified frame idea ready for 3D printing fast using low material consumption. It could be used theoretically as Face Shields when combined with PETG transparencies. This design is print-in-place idea which should support PETG transparencies without modifications on them – no hole punchers required. Is work in progress, I still need to test the width of slot opening.

The idea was developed in response to the global shortage of PPEs COVID-19 in the healthcare systems. The design uploaded here is NOT however certified as PPE nor has been used in the field. Test it on your 3D printer if you like the model and feel free to develop further on top of this idea.

I am not encouraging the use of these devices in the field since PLA and other 3D printing materials are porous, catch bacterias, and typically produced in unregulated environments. If you receive this design by someone claiming this is a PPE consult your local authorities first.
