Designer shares the projects for 3D printed goggles

About the solution

To fight the shortage of protective equipment during the Covid-19 outbreak, a maker shared a design for 3D printed goggles to be used as protection from splashes emited by infected people.

The 3D components of the googles form the frame. The lenses are 1mm thick and should be manufactured with a transparent material like PC or PVC. PVC can be cut manually thanks to its flexibility whereas PC requires a laser cut.

To assemble the elements, the joints need to be clean. The Eva sheet is a special foam that will glue with cyanoacrylate ensuring protection against chafing on the nose and forehead.

For the belt, the maker used an elastic 20mm wide.
