How 3D Printing Is Saving Lives In The Coronavirus Outbreak

"How 3D Printing Is Saving Lives In The Coronavirus Outbreak
3D printing is literally helping us save lives. Isinnova, a 3D company is printing modified valves for snorkling masks. Social distancing and the use of N95 masks have been described as one of the best measures we can take to prevent the spread of the virus or at least flatten the curve. The need to increase the development of ventilators and other medical devices has spurred the worldwide 3D printing industry into action. As 3D printers can be easily repurposed to manufacture low-cost medical equipment, health authorities around the world are asking companies to repurpose their production lines and supply chains as they try to close the huge gap between the number of ventilators that will be required, and the number currently available. Watch the video to learn more how 3D printing is helping us fight the Coronavirus global pandemic.
