Covid 19 BioNTech-Pfizer Vaccine Vial Grid

thingiverse

This thing is designed as an easy to print holder for up to 24 BioNTech-Pfizer Covid 19 Vaccine Vials. Note that the holes are not perfectly hexagonal so that the vials only contact the holder in two opposing positions on two sides, instead of six individual ones. This was done to minimize the travel of the vial and the effect vibration has on the vaccine. #Important: The horizontal expansion must be set to -1mm! This removes the outer border and ensures an appropriate fit of the vials in the holder as the holes would be too small otherwise. The Dimensions are: 175mm x 105mm x 17.5mm It uses *approximately* 65g of material.

As the holder does not have to absorb great forces, it could also work down to -80 ° C.
