NanoHack, an open-source 3D printed mask against COVID-19


The manufacturer of 3D printing materials Copper3D has just put online an open-source STL file of a N95 mask, which can be 3D printed and used against the COVID-19 virus. Its Hack The Pandemic initiative is global and aims to mobilize all manufacturers of machines, fablabs, printing services, etc. to create these masks quickly – the lack of which is a burden for hospitals and healthcare professionals. For some, it is difficult to be entirely reassured about the effectiveness of the mask called NanoHack, however, the company claims that many scientists are behind this project and that a patent application has been filed. Copper3D is a new player in the medical field, nevertheless the various products it has developed, including its antibacterial materials based on copper nanoparticles, do suggest that its solutions are effective.

Mask Strap Efficiency  This simple but useful tool is designed to make face masks less painful to wear for medical workers treating coronavirus patients. The part is made by printing a set, and then connecting with any filament which will also set its width.  In this way, the filament which is needed for a single print is reduced and 18 sets on a 250x250mm print bed are allowed. Small protrusions on both sides of the plastic buckle hold the mask strap and the mask strap does not exert painful pressure on the ears. References: Michael B. ( 2020 ). Prusa Printers.
