Slim and Adaptive Face Mask With Replaceable Filters by amotolese

Last crawled date: 4 years, 1 month ago

Many tutorials show how to make 3d printed face masks but I have not found solutions that adapt well to the face. So I decided to do a mask with some 3d printed parts and materials findable with ease. I hope it can be helpful to someone in these times when the pandemic makes finding masks impossible for many.
Be aware! It is not intended as substitute of certified masks, it can help only when these latter are impossible to find: have a mask like this is better than nothing especially if used with high protection filters.
I designed the mask in order to has:
Perfect adherence to the face due to the possibility of be adjustable
Small footprint with shape similar to disposable ones
Good air flowing with double filter and relatively large filtering area
Replaceable filters with the possibility of using p2 or p3 filters to have high grade of protection.
To make the mask you need:
-3d printer
-Heat sealing machine (if you don't have it you can do it yourself)
-TPU flexible filament
-PLA filament
-Plastic bag of Filament
-Double sided tape
-Adhesive foam tape (draft excluder tape)
-8x countersunk screw diam. 2.9mm *6mm
-A little piece of metal sheet
