face shield

thingiverse

Protective face shield designed for simplicity. Key purpose of this design is to make it easy for doctors and others who struggle with a lack of medical devices to build a face shield quickly. - No supports are needed. - Print time: 2 hours at 0.3mm or 3 hours at 0.2mm. - PET is highly recommended. - The Fusion360 file is attached; feel free to enhance the design. - Size can be changed by updating "Main Diameter" in Fusion360 (all other dimensions are connected). - A transparent shield must consist of two parts. 1. Clear PVC presentation binding cover, approximately 150um thick - but this material is not strong enough and generates a lot of static electricity. E.g., https://www.printfinishingsuperstore.co.uk/clear-pvc-a4-presentation-binding-covers-180-micron-pack-of-1000-986-p.asp 2. Lamination foil A4, 125µm Put the binding cover on the lamination foil and laminate it using heat. This will create a good enough shield for general purposes with no static electricity issues. E.g., https://www.gataric.net/EU_en/binding-laminating/324-lamination-foil-a4-125mum - Use a punching machine to create holes on the shield.

This has not been tested and raises hygiene concerns, but it may be worth trying with a 200um foil.
