    3D printing goggles to help the front line of global anti-epidemic

    3D printing goggles to help the front line of global anti-epidemic

    Since the outbreak of the epidemic, medical staff urgently need safe and effective goggles that provide full coverage to the eyes and seal well to prevent the risk of virus infection wrapped in droplets


    .


    On March 18th, Hunan Huaxiang Incremental Manufacturing Co.
    , Ltd.
    , a holding company of Hunan Huarui Technology Group, successfully rolled out the first batch of 200 sets of 3D printed goggles made by Farsoon High-tech polymer 3D printing technology, and rushed to donate to Ningxiang City.
    Red Cross; At the end of March, the company's second batch of 3D printed goggles was produced and donated to the front lines of the fight against the epidemic at home and abroad


    .


    A few days ago, after receiving an application for goggles from an Italian hospital, Farsoon High-tech Co.
    , Ltd.
    urgently coordinated, and Hunan Huaxiang Incremental Manufacturing Co.
    , Ltd.
    provided the goggles open source files for free.
    Molecular 3D printing powder material - LUVOSINT
    TPU material of Refus is produced locally to help Italy fight against the epidemic

    TPU

    According to reports, the main frame of the goggles is printed with Farsoon FS3300PA nylon material, which has good strength and durability; the sealing ring is printed with LUVOSINT TPU material, which has excellent ductility and flexibility, which is comparable to traditional PC.
    Compared with the material, it is more comfortable to wear and the attachment is tighter


    .


    The design files of the goggles can be downloaded and produced for free worldwide.
    The design files are available in two sizes, which are more suitable for all medical staff

    3D printed mask adjustment buckle to solve the pain of wearing masks for a long time

    3D printed mask adjustment buckle to solve the pain of wearing masks for a long time

    In late February, 500 3D printed mask adjustment buckles jointly donated by Hunan Farsoon High-Tech Co.
    , Ltd.
    and the Hunan Provincial Department of Industry and Information Technology were sent to Hubei to assist the Hunan medical team


    .


    This 3D printed mask adjustment buckle, designed by Peak Sports and manufactured with Farsoon's polymer 3D printing solution, can not only help medical staff relieve the pressure on the ears caused by wearing masks for a long time, but also enhance the comfortable fit.
    , light and easy to carry


    .


    According to reports, the front-line medical staff in Hubei have been wearing masks for a long time and their ears are in a highly restrained state.
    Most people's ears are very painful; some people even have their ears frayed, and the damaged skin will increase the amount of damage.
    possibility of infection

    .

    "We saw in the video that a nurse removed the handle of the milk box in order to relieve ear pain caused by wearing a mask for a long time, and hooked the ear wire of the mask to the back of her head
    .
    However, the handle of the box was hard and the size was not suitable.
    , it is uncomfortable to wear for a long time

    .
    We just wanted to design a special mask adjustment buckle for medical staff

    .
    Eight or nine designs were made before and after, and after many optimizations, the most suitable design was finally determined

    .
    "The designer told reporter

    .

    The reporter saw that the 3D printed mask adjustment buckle can be attached to the back of the head, and the gears on the left and right sides can hook the ear wires of the mask, thereby freeing the ears
    .
    There are some raised dots in the middle of the adjustment buckle, which can increase the adhesion; the 3 adjustment gears designed on the left and right can meet the needs of different sizes of head shapes of medical staff and achieve the best comfort

    .
    This 3D printing material is flexible and wear-resistant, and the mask adjustment buckle made of this can fit the surface of the head without creating streaks, and the user can also achieve a good wrapping effect when wearing a hat

    .

    Using the traditional method to produce the adjustment buckle of the mask, the mold must be opened first, and it is too late
    .
    The use of 3D printing for one-time molding can realize small batch customized production, with high production efficiency, and respond to urgent needs for anti-epidemic materials at the first time

    .

    In addition to supporting the front-line anti-epidemic, the 3D printed mask adjustment buckle is also very suitable for those returning to work and classes who need to wear masks for a long time
    .

    A few days ago, the Huazhong 3D Printing Intelligent Manufacturing Innovation Center, the National Engineering Research Center for Rapid Manufacturing, joined hands with the National Engineering Laboratory for Additive Manufacturing of Polymer Complex Structures, which was built by Farsoon Hi-Tech.
    action

    .
    This includes the development and design of special mask adjustment buckles, and the successful trial production using Farsoon High-tech polymer 3D printing solutions

    .

    At present, Huazhong 3D Printing Intelligent Manufacturing Innovation Center and Longzhong Maker Space have donated more than 10,000 3D printed mask adjustment buttons to the government, hospitals, enterprises and schools in Hubei, and many batches of mask adjustment buttons will be printed in the future.
    Service resumes to work and classes

    .

    Farsoon High-Tech has also received applications from many domestic and foreign medical and nursing institutions to produce 3D printed mask adjustment buckles
