I testing the prusa face shield.
The shield is strong but stay flexible enought
I'm waiting the delivery for the front glass, i keep this issue updated when i receive this and build the entire mask.
Configuration
i have a good result with RC3 and this is my configuration :
- Printer : Prusa MK3S
- Speed : 120 mm/s
- Infill : 20%
- Shields : 4
- Material : PLA from Ice Filament
- Temperature : 210 °C
- Printing time: 3h
- Supports: No supports
Todo
- Print RC3 part
- Attach transparent plastic
- Find a way to attach the structure to the head
- Make holes in transparent plastic
I give a try to a strap band for the attach of the mask and it work perfectly !
no matter the size (mine is 5cm width)
i make a node and it's strong enought to be weared
Hi, as requested by @cotontigeh i tested the .STL (PRUSA face shield RC3) on a crealityCR10S.
Object seems OK as expected, i have an export of my configuration ready via prusa slicer available for anyone who need it.
Otherwise here some of my prints settings :
• Printing time : 4 hours 7 minutes for 1 shield
• Layer height 0.2mm
• 4 walls or perimeters
• 4 layers for TOP & BOTTOM
• 20% for infill with gyroïde pattern
• NO SUPPORTS
• Speed is : - 60mm/s for walls
- 30mm/s for external wall
- 20mm/s for solid infill
• Temperature is 200°c for my filament (Eryone filament PLA) and 60°c for bed temperature with cooling fan activated.
Still i do not recommend to use it for medical purpose since there is some cavities with FDM printers that could lead to contamination but i would give it to anyone exposed and in the need of protection at LYON.
Hi,
I finally got some PVC film and build some mask , it's 150 micron width
that's work very well !
i go deliver a private hospital friday for a total of 100 mask
if you have questions about the construction don't hesitate !
That's really awesome.
Regarding the funding, we need:
- One photo of the group wearing the masks (if they agree)
- A signed letter from the hospital (to discharge responsibilities and proof for the grant)
