Otoscope
thingiverse
This design is a fresh take on a concept published on Appropedia. We kickstarted our project by taking their original blueprint, with the goal of producing 3D printed otoscopes for health posts in Nepal as part of the earthquake relief efforts. After gathering feedback from a diverse range of medical professionals in the UK and Nepal, we've landed on this design. For detailed instructions on assembly and electronics, head to the Wevolver page. Speculas are meant to be single-use items - please dispose of them after use. We're grateful for the contribution made by Humanitarian Maker Ram Chandra. Print Settings Printer: UP Printers Resolution: 0.2mm or less Infill: 20-30% Notes: For optimal results, use a dark-colored filament (black preferred) when printing speculas. There are two types of specula available - one with a narrow opening and the other with a wider opening, designed for children and adults respectively. Two lens assemblies come in different thicknesses; choose accordingly. To avoid print errors near the tip of the specula, it's recommended to print at least three speculas simultaneously or print two speculas with one in an inverted orientation. This ensures proper layer cooling before the next layer is printed, preventing a 'melted' effect. Support: Printing should work smoothly with support angles less than 10 degrees and the suggested print orientation. Orientation: Follow the STL files for optimal results.
