Super Low Poly Covid Mask Respirator – 3D Printable COVID-19 (Corona virus)

20200404_133203.jpg

UPDATE 4/4/2020 4.0: Uploaded a “Lite – Mask Small” size

UPDATE 4/4/2020 3.0: Uploaded a “Lite – Mask Medium” size

UPDATE 4/4/2020 2.0: I have uploaded two new mask versions (in size large at the moment)

“Heavy Duty” version – for those who wanted a heavier duty mask.

“Lite” version – When printed with the “Lite Filter Cover” it comes in at just 21g which should be helpful for those of you trying to mass-produce these things. I still recommend the “Regular Filter Cover” as I believe it gives more protection. But I also understand that it might be better to be able to print more faster and help more people. The lite mask is designed with Speed of printing and consumption of material in mind. I tried to design it to be somewhat sturdy but there is a trade-off when you go “Lite”. In Cura, I sliced it with a wall thickness of 3, 0% infill, and printing speed of 100mm/s, Layer height 0.2 and “Fill between walls” set to “Nowhere”

NOTE: I am designing the “Filter Covers” so they can be used across all grades and sizes of these masks. The “Lite Filter Cover” will work on the HD, Regular and Lite masks, same goes for the “Regular Filter Cover”

UPDATE 4/4/2020: I have uploaded a new mask cover that has smoother edges and more built-in support as some were saying that they had to print with supports for it to work correctly. There is also an open front option for a filter cover in the event you prefer that style

The Goal of this mask is to make a low poly respirator that is stupid simple to print/operate and that uses a readily available/incredibly cheap filter mechanism requiring no cutting of material. (in this case makeup pads)

This mask is a low poly option (Large – 31g, Medium – 26g, Small – 22g filament) that requires no supports, rims or rafts and can be printed at 0% infill. Using minimal filament allows the mask to print much quicker/cheaper in a situation where mass production is necessary.

If you “make” one I would love to see you post your make here!!

Updates:

4/2/2020: I have uploaded Medium and Small Size Masks that hold a full-size makeup pad. This allows for maximum airflow and makes it so you don’t need to cut down the filter. You can still scale the design down if you prefer an even look. (Please see instructions in the picture for scaling.) I also added a file with 3 large masks on a single printer bedplate (Ender 3) for printing multiple masks at once

NOTE: The videos are of the original mask but the concept is very similar.

Here’s a link to the original version that is heavier duty. https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4245757

How effective are DIY masks –https://smartairfilters.com/en/blog/diy-homemade-mask-protect-virus-coronavirus/

This mask is a combination of the Montana and Copper3d Covid masks but is primarily based on the Montana Billings Clinic mask (website below with a good disclaimer that will also apply to this mask) but I wanted to be able to use cotton makeup pads as a filter instead of cutting out something square but the Copper3d was too small to fit a pad in and the screw was too small to get a good grip on. You can use any filtration device you like in there but the pads fit great. No guarantees that this will keep you from getting Covid, but anything should be better than nothing.

El objetivo de esta máscara es hacer un respirador que sea fácil de imprimir / operar y que utilice un mecanismo de filtro fácilmente disponible / increíblemente barato que no requiera cortar material. (en este caso almohadillas de maquillaje)

Esta máscara es una opción de baja poli (filamento de 31 g) que no requiere soportes, llantas o balsas y puede imprimirse al 0% de relleno. El uso de filamento mínimo permite que la máscara se imprima mucho más rápido / más barato en una situación donde la producción en masa es necesaria.

Aquí hay un enlace a la versión original que es más pesado. https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4245757

Esta máscara es una combinación de las máscaras Covid de Montana y Copper3d, pero se basa principalmente en la máscara de la Clínica Montana Billings (sitio web a continuación con un buen descargo de responsabilidad que también se aplicará a esta máscara), pero quería poder usar almohadillas de maquillaje de algodón como filtro en lugar de cortar algo cuadrado, pero el Copper3d era demasiado pequeño para caber en una almohadilla y el tornillo era demasiado pequeño para agarrarlo bien. Puede usar cualquier dispositivo de filtración que desee allí, pero las almohadillas encajan perfectamente. No hay garantías de que esto le impedirá obtener Covid, pero cualquier cosa debería ser mejor que nada.
